Incumbents and challengers, cocooned by their corporate-conflicted political advisors, could benefit from this unique guide to political victory. Giving voice to two…
By Ralph Nader September 6, 2024 Even if I have to say so as co-author with Mark Green of “WRECKING AMERICA: How Trump’s Lawbreaking and Lies Betray All,” I know of no book on Trump to be as practically useful for the 2024 presidential election.

By Ralph Nader August 2, 2024 Israeli soldiers, like soldiers in other countries, bask in the self-serving effusive praise showered upon them by politicians, but privately they know BS when they hear it.
