Synopsis
Unbelievable story of America’s dishonest Congress and the many fiscal games it has played over the last 18 years, over the terms of the presidencies of George W. Bush and Barack Obama.This is the full story that American political media has failed to tell. That includes the now-fake national Debt Limit. That limit was always stated, in dollars, in the United States Code, the law of the land, until August 2, 2011. John Boehner and House Republicans pushed a dishonest scheme on their willing partners: Harry Reid and Senate Democrats, and President Barack Obama. So today’s stated Debt is the same as August 1, 2011: $14.294 trillion.Go lookup “Debt to the Penny,” which is the Treasury Department’s clever web address. On November 6, 2018 it said the outstanding Debt was $21.691 trillion.Little in today’s Washington is as it seems. This book sets fire to the deadwood of Washington’s dishonest fiscal games. This begins the national scandal that will reset the intended games of “Insider Washington” that are being all cued up for the Omnibus spending bill, or another Continuing Resolution, one of those two, due by March 23, 2018. That is, unless the media still refuses to fully tell this story. We shall soon see. . . .How long can the lies continue? Who has the clever answers to explain away all this? I predict: No One, in Washington. How did this scandal stay secret this long? Journalists will now scour Washington, asking all of The members of Congress: What did you know and when did you know it? That is a question that has no good answer, but one which will self-indict every member of Congress, from Doug Jones and Tina Smith, Karen Handel to Don Young.It’s way past time for #PublicGovernment, not the usual excuses from politicians, reported by an entrenched media that hasn’t been minding store. If America hasn’t know what’s really been going on with the national checkbook, then haven’t all our elections been for naught? A cruel joke, played on the American people by the two sets of professionals in the political trade: politicians and journalists.

About the Author
Washington is broken; everyone knows that. But what are the real problems? Ones so public that they no longer register with Washington Insiders, institutional Washington reporting, Think Tank Washington or citizens at-large. Then it would take a true Washington outsider to bring a fresh look to the Washington fiscal horror stories that jaded, institutional Washington "already knows." I have "the story" that they don't know; the one that's been hiding in plain sight. The next, great Washington scandal comes roaring off of these pages in mid-June 2019.
From the Back Cover
marshal
mar·shal, verb. [mahr shul] to arrange in proper order; to bring together; to assemble in an orderly manner; to marshal facts; to rally; to muster; to marshal one's arguments; to array, as for battle; to lead.
We are at that place of crisis, today, but not from an external threat that we face, but from our very own King, our Congress--a morally bankrupt and dishonest legislature, part of a leaderless federal government playing in far off Washington, that has so little distance left to disgrace the Constitution that we have, the people that we thought we were, the founding glories, struggles and stories of the nation that we used to be.
To the members of Congress we ask: Have you no shame? Is there any honor that remains, in you? Show us. Now.
From the Inside Flap
a note to readers:
This book is many things: basic reporting of a story never fully told, or effectively brought together in any one place. It is analysis and commentary; the commentary: biting, and sarcastic; contemptuous. This story spans the last-43 years of our national political and fiscal life, with a much sharper focus on the last-18 years, as the fiscal treachery played in Washington became substantially more dishonest.
