Description 

Judge, scholar, bestselling author, and Fox News Senior Judicial Analyst Andrew P. Napolitano is back with a shocking chronicle of America’s descent from a free society to a frightening surveillance state.

In Suicide Pact, Napolitano details a long, sordid history of governmental—and especially presidential—encroachments on liberty, enacted in the name of protecting America but which serve insead to undermine national security and erode the nation’s founding freedoms.

Appealing to all politically aware Americans but especially to highly engaged conservatives and libertarians (including his 576,000 Facebook fans and 240,000 Twitter followers), Napolitano’s sobering-yet-patriotic perspective unmasks rampant political doubletalk and Washington power plays by taking a clear, legally grounded look at how we got here.

Blending fascinating history with fresh reporting and analysis on contemporary issues such as drone warfare and executions, NSA surveillance, and secret federal courts, Suicide Pact casts a vision beyond hollow rhetoric to common-sense solutions for returning sanity to our shores.

The Land of the Free No More
Napolitano has again performed an invaluable service warning Americans that their freedom is slipping away in Suicide Pact. Will they listen? Having these new powers, the powers of a king, is not the same as exercising them—but it's just a matter of time.

What happens when all these new powers are put into play, not just in the form of lethal threats, but the real thing? What happens when Guantanamo is brought stateside? We are a heartbeat away from internal passports, secret arrests, and civilian military tribunals. Spying by drone and satellite, and warrantless search and seizure are already in play. Extraordinary rendition to black-site prisons and "enhanced" interrogation has already been done, without backlash. Secret kill lists are drawn up without any protest.

For a dramatization of what the new national security state looks like in the near future, read John Brown's State of Terror http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HE605GC. 

Suicide Pact is also available for Kindle.
