Using American constitutional law and history, this book succinctly and expertly explains the fundamental principles that establish the foundation for what the American republic is supposed to stand upon and how the conservative movement has systematically attempted to pull the nation away from those bedrock principles. In chapter after chapter, the author reveals that the apocryphal stories told by conservatives about America's founding are nothing more than attempts to remake the country into something different than what the Founding Fathers intended.

The Rise of Annie Lone is a suspenseful story of one woman's struggle to survive to be reunited with her young child. After killing her violently abusive husband, Annie Lone is wrongfully convicted of murder and sentenced to nearly twenty years in prison to be served at the Mount Baker Corrections Center for Women (MBCCW) outside of Bellingham, Washington. Annie discovers that she is housed in one of the most corrupt prisons in American history. Using their positions of power, the prison staff engages in coerced sexual acts with many of the women. As Annie quickly learns, those who resist are summarily punished, tortured, and, in some cases, killed. Will Annie be able to unite divided prison inmates to rise up against the oppressive prison regime that is exploiting them despite the insurmountable odds they face? This novel is the first of a new series.
