The incredible, harrowing account of how American democracy was
hacked by Moscow as part of a covert operation to influence the
U.S. election and help Donald Trump gain the presidency. Russian
Roulette is...the most thorough and riveting account. -- The New
York Times Russian Roulette is a story of political skullduggery
unprecedented in American history. It weaves together tales of
international intrigue, cyber espionage, and superpower rivalry.
After U.S.-Russia relations soured, as Vladimir Putin moved to
reassert Russian strength on the global stage, Moscow trained its
best hackers and trolls on U.S. political targets and exploited
WikiLeaks to disseminate information that could affect the 2016
election. The Russians were wildly successful and the great
break-in of 2016 was no third-rate burglary. It was far more
sophisticated and sinister -- a brazen act of political espionage
designed to interfere with American democracy. At the end of the
day, Trump, the candidate who pursued business deals in Russia,
won. And millions of Americans were left wondering, what the hell
happened? This story of high-tech spying and multiple political
feuds is told against the backdrop of Trump's strange relationship
with Putin and the curious ties between members of his inner circle
-- including Paul Manafort and Michael Flynn -- and Russia. Russian
Roulette chronicles and explores this bizarre scandal, explains the
stakes, and answers one of the biggest questions in American
politics: How and why did a foreign government infiltrate the
country's political process and gain influence in Washington?
THE REAL STORY BEHIND THE INVASION OF IRAQ
Now an MSNBC Documentary, hosted by Rachel Maddow
Filled with news-making revelations that made it a "New York Times"
bestseller, "Hubris" takes us behind the scenes at the White House,
CIA, Pentagon, State Department, and Congress to show how George W.
Bush came to invade Iraq - and how his administration struggled
with the devastating fallout.
"Hubris" connects the dots between Bush's expletive-laden outbursts
at Saddam Hussein, the bitter battles between the CIA and the White
House, the fights within the intelligence community over Saddam's
supposed weapons of mass destruction, the outing of an undercover
CIA officer, and the Bush administration's misleading sales
campaign for war. Written by veteran reporters Michael Isikoff and
David Corn, this is an inside look at how a president took the
nation to war using faulty and fraudulent intelligence. It's a
dramatic page-turner and an intriguing account of conspiracy,
backstabbing, bureaucratic ineptitude, journalistic malfeasance,
and arrogance.
