THE LEFT IS STEALING YOUR MONEY AND USING IT TO WAGE WAR AGAINST ITS SUPPOSED ENEMIES

Ken Buck Former five-term Congressman from Colorado, lawyer, and author of CRUSHED:

Big Tech's War on Free Speech is back with a new warning to the the people of the United States of America in a new book: WAKE UP, AMERICA!: The Rise of Socialism is the Death of Freedom.

Bucks book is an expose of corruption, arguing that America's founders' vision for a limited federal government has been methodically chipped away by left-wing, liberal progressives to consolidate power in a government detached from those it is supposed to serve.

For over a century, the left has used the federal government to fund and promote its socialist agenda. Under the guise of flowery titles like the New Deal or Great Society, Democratic administrations have spent money America doesn't have on programs America doesn't need. Each of these leftist causes are sold to the public as temporary solutions to existential threats. But their actual purpose is to vest more control in the federal government and advance the left's partisan objectives at the expense of individual liberty.

In this book, Buck reminds us of the Founders' vision for a limited federal government, ""of the people and for the people,"" designed to protect personal liberty by adhering to federalism and separation of powers-and how progressives have methodically chipped away at these bedrock principles to consolidate power in a government detached from those it is supposed to serve.

The threat to America has never been greater. The United States is on the precipice of defaulting on its national debt, losing the dollar as the world's default currency, watching the bankruptcy of Social Security and Medicare, and becoming isolated from once close trading partners. While the left cheers America's demise so it can further suppress liberty, the world order will fall into a nuclear armed chaos. The time to act is now, and this book will arm every citizen with the knowledge and strategy to make a difference.

Government funding should be used to serve ""We the People of the United States,"" not liberal Democrats' war on conservative Republicans, and destroy the world order.

Reviews for Wake Up, America!: The Rise of Socialism is the Death of Freedom

Praise for CRUSHED: Big Tech's War on Free Speech by Ken Buck ""Makes the unassailable case that we must unite to stop Big Tech billionaires from censoring speech, stopping the exchange of ideas, manipulating voters, filtering information, and quashing their political opponents."" --From the Foreword by Senator Ted Cruz ""These Big Tech platforms have a dangerous agenda to kill American values. Ken Buck has been leading the fight in Congress to stop them. He is a courageous man as CRUSHED proves. Make sure you read it."" --David Horowitz, New York Times Bestselling Author of FINAL BATTLE ""Big Tech's war on American values is real, and Ken Buck's CRUSHED shows us a pathway to fight back and beat them."" --Mike Huckabee Praise for DRAIN THE SWAMP: How Washington Corruption is Worse than You Think by Ken Buck ""Congressman Ken Buck pulls back the curtains of Congress to deliver this must-read for anyone who wants to actually drain the swamp in Washington--including President Trump. If you love freedom and liberty, you'll love how my friend Ken exposes the arm-twisting and back-room deals in the Capitol, then offers constitutional solutions for Americans to take their country back!"" --Mark Levin, New York Times bestselling author and host of the nationally syndicated radio show, The Mark Levin Show ""It's rare to see any politician really shed light on just how corrupting Washington can get. It is even rarer for a sitting member of Congress to do it. Congressman Ken Buck offers a refreshing take on his time in Washington, how the culture in Washington incentivizes a corrupt status quo, and how the American people can change things. This is an eye-opening read."" --Erick Erickson, host of Atlanta's Evening News with Erick Erickson and co-author of You Will Be Made to Care: The War on Faith, Family, and Your Freedom to Believe ""Congressman Ken Buck is a strong conservative with a courageous record of standing up to the bipartisan corruption in Washington. He is a friend and a warrior for liberty, fighting to defend the Constitution and restore power to the American people."" --Ted Cruz, U.S. Senator, Texas ""In this pull-no-punches explanation of what's wrong with Washington, Ken Buck tells it like it is. Every American who wants to drain the swamp should read this book."" --Mike Lee, U.S. Senator, Utah ""Today, American democracy is threatened. Political fundraising--and the power it awards the big funders--has come to dominate Congress as never before. Congressman Buck's book is an important exposé that should incite real action for change, both on Capitol Hill and in congressional districts throughout the land."" --Bill Bradley, former U.S. Senator, New Jersey
