Signed, Sealed, and Screwed is a searing indictment of the legislation that shattered any illusion of a principled Republican Party. When a rural hospital in Nebraska shut its doors just hours before Donald Trump signed the Big Beautiful Bill into law, it was more than a local tragedy, it was a national warning.

In this gripping political exposé, the author dismantles the myth that this bill was a victory for ""every hardworking American."" Instead, it's revealed as a calculated assault on the vulnerable: gutting Medicaid, slashing food assistance, accelerating climate collapse, and handing permanent tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy. Through vivid storytelling and data-driven analysis Signed, Sealed, and Screwed exposes how the bill didn't just pass; it passed a point of no return for the GOP.

More than just a critique of legislation, this book chronicles a democracy in crisis, one hijacked by fear, propaganda, and cultish loyalty to a single figure. But within this darkness, it also documents the rise of a fierce, bottom-up resistance: progressive leaders, community organizers, and ordinary people standing up, fighting back, and refusing to be silenced.

Whether you're a policy wonk, activist, or simply someone desperate to make sense of America's political freefall, this is the book you can't afford to ignore. Because the bill may have passed, but the fight is far from over.

Jenna Wyner is a political science student with a sharp focus on policy, governance, and the forces reshaping American democracy. As a researcher and activist, she brings a clear-eyed, uncompromising perspective to the intersection of politics and power, fueled by a deep belief in equity, accountability, and truth. In Signed, Sealed, and Screwed: How One Bill Revealed the GOP's Collapse, Wyner presents a rigorous, evidence-based critique of a pivotal moment in U.S. politics. Stripping away the theatrics, she examines how a single piece of legislation exposed the deeper structural breakdowns within the Republican Party and the democratic institutions meant to hold it accountable. This is her first book, a bold debut from a rising voice determined to challenge complacency and confront the political realities shaping our future.
