Book - Midnight in Washington: How We Almost Lost Our Democracy and Still Could

By Adam Schiff. Hardback, 510 pages, published 2021. Eight pages of color photos. This copy is in excellent used condition, gently read. One dog-ear bu there's no writing, no highlights, and all pages are intact. "From the congressman who led the first impeachment of Donald J. Trump comes Midnight in Washington. Here, Schiff shares the inside account of American democracy in its darkest hour--from the January 6 insurrection to the overall rise of autocracy being unleashed--and offers a warning that those forces remain as potent as ever. Schiff chronicles step-by-step just how our democracy was put at such risk, and traces his own path to meeting the crisis—taking us inside his team of impeachment managers and their desperate defense of the Constitution amid the rise of a distinctly American brand of autocracy. Deepening our understanding of prominent public moments such as the January 6th attack on the Capitol, Schiff reveals the private struggles, the internal conflicts, and the triumphs of courage that come with defending the republic against a lawless president—the dangerous immorality of a president engaged in an historic betrayal of his office." ➡️ NOTE: This book comes in at just under 2 pounds, so due to Poshmark's weight restrictions it unfortunately cannot be bundled with more than a couple of other items. I'm also happy to split a larger order into two shipments and finagle a private discount to work around this. 🙂
