with the extent of all the worldwide corruption and criminality that is unfolding. And this has all been taking place in the information age, right under our noses.

Thanks for your reply. I've added the book to my list. What I find truly disturbing is that this book was published in 2018 and yet Trump was reelected in 2024 - clearly a big failure on the part of the media and the voting public. I can remember when political figures were brought down by a photo or a rumor.
