Here are the Newsmax Rising Bestsellers for the week of August 13, 2018:
1. “The Deep State: How an Army of Bureaucrats Protected Barack Obama and Is Working to Destroy the Trump Agenda,” by Jason Chaffetz (HarperCollins) — “As Chairman of the House Oversight Committee, Chaffetz was the tip of the spear challenging the Deep State and trying to hold them accountable,” writes GoodReads. “In ‘Deep State,’ Chaffetz highlights the Deep State’s tactics, illuminates the problems, and offers a way to fight back and win.” (Non-Fiction)
2. “The Case Against Impeaching Trump,” by Alan Dershowitz (Hot Books) — Described by Politico as “one of the most prominent and consistent defenders of civil liberties in America,” Dershowitz removes the filter of partisan politics and uses those principles to burst the balloon of those calling for the president’s head. To those calling the Harvard Law professor emeritus and Newsmax contributor a traitor to his liberal politics, Politico observes, “Maybe the question isn’t what happened to Alan Dershowitz. Maybe it’s what happened to everyone else.” (Non-Fiction)
3. “Liars, Leakers, and Liberals: The Case Against the Anti-Trump Conspiracy,” by Jeanine Pirro — (Grand Central Publishing) Fans of her Fox News show know that Judge Jeanine Pirro’s time on the bench has given her the ability to separate a narrative’s fact from fiction.
