Description
A veteran federal prosecutor and legal analyst delivers an urgent, evidence-driven examination of how political lies can metastasize into institutional crisis. Tracing the cascade from election falsehoods to public distrust—and from that distrust to escalating abuses of power—this book explores the legal and structural vulnerabilities that allow demagogues to weaponize misinformation. With a clear-eyed, courtroom-informed style, it argues that the problem is not only individual deception but the system that fails to constrain it, and it outlines practical reforms to strengthen democratic accountability. Equal parts warning and blueprint, this is a call for courage and creativity—showing how lessons from other democracies can help protect elections, restore faith in governance, and prevent a future “liar’s kingdom” from taking root.
