Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by America's Progressive Elite

Schweitzer's book is a well researched and documented expose on the corruption of Democrats in DC. Are only Democrats corrupt? No, but you have billion dollar MSM already hounding nearly every Republican, trying to discover corruption while carrying water for the Democrats. Has it ever occurred to anyone why someone would spend on average $10.4 million dollars to run for the U.S. Senate, a job that pays $174,000 a year? (or $1,044,000 over the 6 year term). Either people running for the Senate are stupid or their is more to the story than the salary. This book exposes exactly why someone would fight so hard for a job that pays relatively little on the surface. Sweetheart deals for friends and family paid for with our tax dollars. Legislation specifically targeted to help an ally. No show jobs for family that pay ridiculously above scale wages (hello Hunter Biden). If you are not middle of the road or conservative, you probably are not going to like this book, because it only picks on Democrats. I think most of all of us are intelligent to figure out that Republicans are doing the same thing. Included in the title of this book is: Abuse of Power by America's PROGRESSIVE Elite. This is an expose of the corruption and hypocrisy of the politicians who present themselves as "looking out for the little guy." This book is not meant to be an evenhanded expose of corruption in DC. Say what you want about the author's bias, but this book is backed up with references from The New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, MSNBC, and dozens of other left leaning sources. I though the book was an interesting read. I passed it along to a friend, and he is going to pass it along to a co-worker when he is done with it. You should note that almost all of the one star reviews are not from verified purchases of this book. I bought this book, read this book and have done my best to honestly review it for you. I hope this helps.

I have now read a handful of Peters books and they are all amazing. I like to look at these books from the perspective of the patterns of corruption and not from the individuals doing the corrupt things. I think one can derive a deeper awareness of psychology, economics and wisdom from letting go any animosity, anger and victimhood...any pride seeking, and instead see these power hungry politicians as simply mentally ill and spiritual retarded humans evolving; and US...US, allowing them to create all this drama and feeding the flames of the fire with self righteousness, which is the same phony heroic seductive bait that many of my generation (millennial's) bite and don't see the hook....which the PC culture cunning puts there to use them.Understanding the ways in which these people use the main stream media to proclaim themselves heroic leaders and then digging up the dirt simply shows me that if it was not them...some other mentally ill human would seek out that position of power and that the way to stop all this is...get your kids out of school. Get the kids away from the unionized, socialist, statistically unintelligent teachers who are religious with their status quo pagan government worship and getting worse by the day. It took me a while to uncondition myself and find all these goodies, like Thomas Sowell and Dinesh D'Souza...big up to the Corbett Report!This way of life needs us to raise out kids and not make excuses, because it has now been 3 generations of compulsory schooling and many of the older generations can't follow along if they simply watch FOX....if there is any chance in the globalists not making this return to God...this living dream, a living hell....WE need to broach these subjects with the utmost dignity and not a divided mind, proud machismo know it all way. I think conspiracy theory will be as cool as crypto will...and soon, while the naysayers who don't bother to read at all utter words that are said to convey that they did their due diligence and in reality are like awkward elevator conversation...nothing is being said.I would like to see Peter tear into the Republicans more though...because I'm more conservative than what the republicans claim to be and see them mostly as half hearted and flip floppers...who miss the heart of the matter and rely upon some template to convey what side they stand on...when it is deeper than sides.I have not found a better author that knocks these people off their pedestals. I highly recommend anyone who wants to peacefully discuss how we avoid race wars, economic atrocities and regulation that will kill billions to read about the shadows that lurk in the back of the minds of our .....'leaders' and meditate upon the way to offer it to conditioned kids who think its hip to support Marxism...when they don't know what Marxism is.

Good job of researching and reporting. Excellent eye opening view of the corruption in politics. It is actually a bit depressing.

How these people are not behind bars is amazing in itself. Very well written book. Hard to put down.Beijing Biden & Heels Up Harris should not have even been allowed to run as candidates for the office of Pres./Vice Pres. So glad their corruption has been exposed. This book is a must read

Any analysis of powerful figures that concludes they are not what they pretend to be demands courage from the writer, such is the case here where Peter Schweizer assesses some of the leading progressive political leaders in the US. All of those scrutinised in this thoroughly researched volume are either already standing, or intend to stand, for the position of President of the United States. What is also quite clear is that none of them are remotely worthy of that Office. In each case it is obvious that despite what they claim, all have used, or are using their elected office to enrich themselves, their families and cronies. America does not need people like that running the country, it needs individuals like Donald J Trump, or those like him. Having spectated from afar on events since Mr Trump was elected, you can see, at least in part, why there is so much antipathy towards him, he is a danger to a political class, many of whom are more intent on personal gain than they are serving the American people.

This book is amazing. The level of corruptness of some of America's highest politicians including a President and a Vice-President is simply mind boggling. This is not the first book written by Peter Schweizer that I have read, I also previously read 'Clinton Cash'. The chapter about President Joe Biden is mind blowing. How one family can be so corrupt is staggering. I cannot recommend this book strongly enough. And at the time of writing, the American public are only a little over 2 months away from the next presidential elections where the corrupt Kamala Harris is running for the top job. The free world is facing a crisis if she gets elected. All the politicians exposed in this book should be in prison.

Those politicians should be in prison for life. Money and power protect them.

Peter tells us the visible truth about corrupt American politicians but who then is controlling the world?Who has a plan he can make happen?Is it Biden, Obama, the democrats, America, the federal reserve, the bankers, the big pharma, Gates, the WHO, the Bilderbergers, the world economic forum, the vatican, the CFR, the trilateral commission, the club of Rome, the committee of 300, the royal institute of international affairs, the freemasons, skull and bones, the Rhodes scholars, China, Iran , Russia, the UN?Wicked Man destroys his wicked world while God lets him. Man is a proud hypocrite that has always rejected God and has a hard heart. Jesus created the world and planned the world. Jesus returns to rule the world after the 7 year tribulation.
