The Memo : Twenty Years Inside the Deep State Fighting for America First (9780999705933)

After three short months in 2017 serving on the National Security Council under President's Trump National Security Advisor H.R. McMaster, Rich was fired for telling the truth. He sounded the alarm on the Deep State coup to remove President Trump and of the subversives within the ranks. Rich set it all down in his famous memo - POTUS and Political Warfare. And for this, he paid for it with his job. At the time, Rich was labeled as a "conspiracy theorist" but as events played out over the following three years, Rich has been fully vindicated. The Memo is the riveting story of how Rich Higgins' twenty year career fighting for America First within the bowels of the DoD and Pentagon bureaucracy enabled him to discern - well before anyone else - the Deep State's efforts to stop and ultimately remove the President from office.

Mytinger and Warner went chasing adventure in the name of science, something rarely done by women at the time, and they did it in the face of universal dissapproval and even terror on the part of their families, who didn't expect them to come back alive. Not only that, but they had virtually no money and no scientific support or backing. But live they did, and they brought back beautiful paintings and the fascin...
