Description

The New York Times Bestseller With the future of American democracy in the balance, this is a detailed and forensic account of what really happened on that fateful day: January 6th 2021. Denver Riggleman, the first member of Congress to sound the alarm about QAnon, provides readers with an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at the January 6th select committee's investigation - and reveals shocking details about the Trump White House's links to militant extremist groups. Featuring alarming text messages from key political leaders - including those sent during the almost eight-hour period on January 6th when the White House supposedly had no phone calls - The Breach is a revelatory insight into the inner workings of the January 6th committee and a clear-eyed look at the existential threats facing the United States. Make no mistake: modern information warfare is here, and The Breach is essential reading to understand the most serious assault on American democracy since the end of the Civil War.
