The Land of Flickering Lights: Restoring America in an Age of Broken Politics Audiobook (Free)

The Property of Flickering Lamps is a unique contribution to American political writing as of this or any other time. Democratic Senator Michael Bennet from Colorado lifts a veil on Congress to reveal, in his terms, ‘through some actual stories-about individuals, the politics, the motives, the amount of money, the hypocrisy, the stakes, the outcome-the pathological lifestyle of the capitol and the results for us all.’

Bennet eloquently chronicles the dramatic complete tales behind five debates and about The Property of Flickering Lighting: Restoring America in an Age of Broken Politics decisions essential to most Americans: the highly politicized nominations and meetings of judges whatsoever levels; the latest taxes cut that massively improved our debts and monetary inequality across the country; the shredding from the Iran nuclear deal that undermined our longstanding bipartisan approach to foreign policy; the corruption due to profit politics and just why it has triggered inaction on weather change and much else; and the unpleasant sabotage by a minority from the ‘Gang of Eight’s’ bi-partisan plan to reform our immigration procedures, which would have resolved all the issues we currently face.

By revealing how these decisions were truly made, Bennet sheds vital new light on each one of these five crucial events and what Us citizens have lost along the way, illuminating how and why our government reaches loggerheads today.
