First published 2018
Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino teams up with journalist D.C. McAllister to investigate what they claim was a coordinated effort to undermine Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign. The authors argue that the Obama administration, Hillary Clinton's campaign, and foreign actors worked together to sabotage Trump's candidacy and later his presidency. Bongino and McAllister trace connections between various political figures and present what they describe as factual evidence rather than speculation. The book maps out the relationships and actions of key players in what the authors characterize as an unprecedented political scandal. Through detailed analysis of events and participants, they attempt to demonstrate how Trump's opponents allegedly used surveillance and other tactics against his campaign. The work promises to cut through conflicting narratives and media coverage to reveal the authors' version of events during this contentious period in American politics.
