The Intimidation Game: How the Left Is Silencing Free Speech
Description
From Kim Strassel-one of the preeminent political columnists writing today and
member of the Wall Street Journal editorial board-comes an insightful,
alarming look at how the Left, once the champion of civil liberties, is today
orchestrating a coordinated campaign to bully Americans out of free speech.
For nearly 40 years, Washington and much of the American public have held up
disclosure and campaign finance laws as ideals, and the path to cleaner and
freer elections. This book will show, through first-hand accounts, how both
have been hijacked by the Left as weapons against free speech and free
association, becoming the most powerful tools of those intent on silencing
their political opposition. The Intimidation Game provides a chilling expose
of political scare tactics and overreach, including: How Citizens United set
off a wave of liberal harassment against conservative politicians The
targeting of Tea Party groups by the IRS How Wisconsin prosecutors, state AGs,
and a Democratic Congress shut down political activists and businesses The
politicization by the Obama administration of a host of government agencies
including the FEC, FCC and the SEC The Intimidation Game will shine a much-
needed light on how liberal governance and the Democratic machine bullies the
political process. Read more
