Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by America's Progressive Elite Hardcover – January 21, 2020
Purchase options and add-ons
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER!
Washington insiders operate by a proven credo: When a Peter Schweizer book drops, duck and brace for impact.
For over a decade, the work of six-time New York Times bestselling investigative reporter Peter Schweizer has sent shockwaves through the political universe.
Clinton Cash revealed the Clintons’ international money flow, exposed global corruption, and sparked an FBI investigation. Secret Empires exposed bipartisan corruption and launched congressional investigations. And Throw Them All Out and Extortion prompted passage of the STOCK Act. Indeed, Schweizer’s “follow the money” bombshell revelations have been featured on the front pages of the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, and regularly appear on national news programs, including 60 Minutes.
Now Schweizer and his team of seasoned investigators turn their focus to the nation’s top progressives—politicians who strive to acquire more government power to achieve their political ends.
Can they be trusted with more power?
In Profiles in Corruption, Schweizer offers a deep-dive investigation into the private finances, and secrets deals of some of America’s top political leaders. And, as usual, he doesn’t disappoint, with never-before-reported revelations that uncover corruption and abuse of power—all backed up by a mountain of corporate documents and legal filings from around the globe. Learn about how they are making sweetheart deals, generating side income, bending the law to their own benefits, using legislation to advance their own interests, and much more.
Profiles in Corruption contains tomorrow’s headlines.

About the author
Investigative journalist and author Peter Schweizer's most recent book, the #1 New York Times bestselling "BLOOD MONEY: How the Powerful Turn a Blind Eye to China Killing Americans," will shock Americans with the extent of China's hidden war on America. His books have appeared on the New York Times bestseller list eight times, including for "Red Handed: How American Elites Get Rich Helping China Win," as well as "Profiles in Corruption," "Secret Empires," and "Clinton Cash," all bestsellers.
Peter founded the Government Accountability Institute (GAI) in 2012, Previously, he was a consultant to the Office of Presidential Speechwriting in the White House for President George W. Bush. He has also served as a member of the Ultraterrorism Study Group at the U.S. government’s Sandia National Laboratory and is a former consultant to NBC News. His books have been translated into eleven languages and he is a frequent guest commentator on television networks, radio talk shows, and podcasts. He is also the host of GAI’s own weekly podcast, The Drill Down, which relentlessly exposes cronyism and corruption in Washington.
Peter is also the author of the book Extortion: How Politicians Extract Your Money, Buy Votes, and Line Their Own Pockets. Both Extortion and the preceding book, Throw Them All Out, were featured in segments on CBS’s 60 Minutes program.
His other nonfiction books include Reagan’s War (Doubleday, 2002), which the Washington Post praised as “a fascinating, well-written, useful and important look at one of the three or four most important American political leaders of the 20th century. No serious assessment of the 40th president of the United States can ignore the central importance of anti-communism in his career; after Schweizer none will.” The Los Angeles Times called it “A rousing and compelling case that Reagan’s personal and political odyssey…was central to bringing down the ‘evil empire.” He is also the co-author of The Bushes: Portrait of a Dynasty (Doubleday, 2004), which the New York Times called “Fascinating…Provides illuminating insights into the internal dynamics of the Bush family dynasty.” The New York Post declared “If you want to know as fully as can be told the story of how the Bushes rose from Midwestern obscurity to equal the records of families like the Roosevelts, the Kennedys, and the Adamses — this is the book.”
Other nonfiction works include Architects of Ruin (Harper, 2009) Victory (Atlantic Monthly Press, 1994) , Do As I Say (Not As I Do) (Doubleday, 2005), and Makers and Takers (Doubleday, 2008).
His academic books include Landmark Speeches of the American Conservative Movement (Texas A&M University Press, 2006) The Reagan Presidency: Assessing the Man and His Legacy (Rowman and Littlefield, 2005), and The Fall Of The Wall: Reassessing the Causes and Consequences of the End of the Cold War (Hoover Institution Press, 2000). He was also a contributor to Living in the Eighties (Oxford University Press, 2008)
His articles have appeared in Foreign Affairs, The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, National Review, and elsewhere. He has appeared on numerous radio and television programs.
Peter received his M.Phil. from Oxford University and his B.A. from George Washington University. He lives in Florida with his wife, Rhonda, and his children.

Understanding the ways in which these people use the main stream media to proclaim themselves heroic leaders and then digging up the dirt simply shows me that if it was not them...some other mentally ill human would seek out that position of power and that the way to stop all this is...get your kids out of school. Get the kids away from the unionized, socialist, statistically unintelligent teachers who are religious with their status quo pagan government worship and getting worse by the day. It took me a while to uncondition myself and find all these goodies, like Thomas Sowell and Dinesh D'Souza...big up to the Corbett Report!
This way of life needs us to raise out kids and not make excuses, because it has now been 3 generations of compulsory schooling and many of the older generations can't follow along if they simply watch FOX....if there is any chance in the globalists not making this return to God...this living dream, a living hell....WE need to broach these subjects with the utmost dignity and not a divided mind, proud machismo know it all way. I think conspiracy theory will be as cool as crypto will...and soon, while the naysayers who don't bother to read at all utter words that are said to convey that they did their due diligence and in reality are like awkward elevator conversation...nothing is being said.
I would like to see Peter tear into the Republicans more though...because I'm more conservative than what the republicans claim to be and see them mostly as half hearted and flip floppers...who miss the heart of the matter and rely upon some template to convey what side they stand on...when it is deeper than sides.
I have not found a better author that knocks these people off their pedestals. I highly recommend anyone who wants to peacefully discuss how we avoid race wars, economic atrocities and regulation that will kill billions to read about the shadows that lurk in the back of the minds of our .....'leaders' and meditate upon the way to offer it to conditioned kids who think its hip to support Marxism...when they don't know what Marxism is.

Beijing Biden & Heels Up Harris should not have even been allowed to run as candidates for the office of Pres./Vice Pres. So glad their corruption has been exposed. This book is a must read
Who has a plan he can make happen?
Is it Biden, Obama, the democrats, America, the federal reserve, the bankers, the big pharma, Gates, the WHO, the Bilderbergers, the world economic forum, the vatican, the CFR, the trilateral commission, the club of Rome, the committee of 300, the royal institute of international affairs, the freemasons, skull and bones, the Rhodes scholars, China, Iran , Russia, the UN?
Wicked Man destroys his wicked world while God lets him. Man is a proud hypocrite that has always rejected God and has a hard heart. Jesus created the world and planned the world. Jesus returns to rule the world after the 7 year tribulation.
