Story
The media can't stop talking about the gridlock in Washington, as if a handful of stubborn Republicans are the only thing standing between us and a fully-functional democracy. The reality is that our government was taken over by big business and their allies in both political parties. The getaway driver in this heist was corporate media. The good news is that the American people are very progressive. And soon progressives will take over Washington as well! And when they do, the great majority of Americans will love it.

Story
On January 6, 2021, Donald Trump incited a violent mob to storm the US Capitol in attempts to overturn the presidential election. It was a betrayal of our Constitution, and one of the darkest days in recent history. Yet to former congressman Adam Kinzinger it was also the culmination of a cultural and political rupture he’d long seen coming. Constructive criticism from within the Republican Party was no longer enough. It was time to stand up, even if it meant betraying his own party.

When Bernie Sanders began his race for the presidency, it was considered by the political establishment and the media to be a "fringe" campaign, something not to be taken seriously. After all, he was just an independent senator from a small state with little name recognition. His campaign had no money, no political organization, and it was taking on the entire Democratic Party establishment. By the time Sanders' campaign came to a close, however, it was clear that the pundits had gotten it wrong.

Tempers have reached the boiling point over the shifts in healthcare, immigration, national security, energy, and the environment.

In Great Society, Shlaes offers a powerful companion to her legendary history of the 1930s, The Forgotten Man, and shows that in fact there was scant difference between two presidents we consider opposites: Johnson and Nixon. Just as technocratic military planning by "the Best and the Brightest" made failure in Vietnam inevitable, so planning by a team of the domestic best and brightest guaranteed fiasco at home. At once history and biography, Great Society sketches moving portraits of the characters in this transformative period.

Publisher's summary
No time to read? Get the main key insights from this summary of John Boehner’s On the House: A Washington Memoir in just a short listen.
A few key insights from Chapter 1:
1. In Washington, people care too much about power and appearing powerful. Power goes to their heads way too often. John Boehner never cared about looking powerful. If you have to go around saying that you’re powerful, it means you probably are not.
2. Politicians like Donald Trump believe their titles grant them the power to do whatever they want, but such entitlement makes you vulnerable to attack and criticism. Boehner did not like letting power go to his head, or seeing other members of Congress abuse theirs.
3. When Boehner was a new member of Congress in September 1991, he sought to investigate why the House of Representatives had its own bank. He thought it was odd that they were forced to deposit their paychecks in the House’s bank.
4. It turned out that the House bank was a way for members to abuse their power. If they had no money in their account, they could still write checks which would be covered by someone else: the American taxpayer. This happened under the control of the Democrats.

Story
In Great Society, Shlaes offers a powerful companion to her legendary history of the 1930s, The Forgotten Man, and shows that in fact there was scant difference between two presidents we consider opposites: Johnson and Nixon. Just as technocratic military planning by "the Best and the Brightest" made failure in Vietnam inevitable, so planning by a team of the domestic best and brightest guaranteed fiasco at home. At once history and biography, Great Society sketches moving portraits of the characters in this transformative period.
