The only way to beat money power is with people power.

From Jesse Jackson to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, read the history of the growing people powered movement - and where we're headed in the future - in Ryan Grim's new book, We've Got People.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez may seem like she came from nowhere, but the movement that propelled her to office – and to global political stardom – has been building for 30 years. We’ve Got People is the story of that movement, which first exploded into public view with the largely forgotten presi...

AG Barr's release of the redacted Mueller Report already looks like a coverup.

But Robert Mueller left a clear trail of breadcrumbs in his sentencing memos, indictments, and other filings with federal courts.

The Mueller Papers collects these breadcrumbs and connects the dots for an illuminating read.

It was the firing heard round the world. With one impulsive move, on the advice of his son-in-law Jared Kushner, Donald Trump fired James Comey on May 9, 2017. It would change the course of the Trump presidency and, with it, alter the course of world history in ways both large and small. It was t...

Can’t read the Mueller Report yet, but you can read his failsafe in case Donald is able to keep the report from being made public.

It was the firing heard round the world. With one impulsive move, on the advice of his son-in-law Jared Kushner, Donald Trump fired James Comey on May 9, 2017. It would change the course of the Trump presidency and, with it, alter the course of world history in ways both large and small. It was that firing that led to the creation of the position of Special Counsel, filled by former FBI director Robert Mueller. The product of Mueller's year and a half of investigation may or may not be made public, but, in a critical way, it already is. As Chad Day and Eric Tucker of The Associated Press have written, "Mueller has spoken loudly, if indirectly, in court - indictment by indictment, guilty plea by guilty plea. In doing so, he tracked an elaborate Russian operation that injected chaos into a U.S. presidential election and tried to help Trump win the White House. He followed a GOP campaign that embraced the Kremlin's help and championed stolen material to hurt a political foe. And ultimately, he revealed layers of lies, deception, self-enrichment and hubris that followed. Woven through thousands of court papers, the special counsel has made his public report. This is what it says."The filings have an almost novelistic quality. "Mueller's legal filings, which include indictments and sentencing memorandums, have created an almost novelistic narrative, featuring rich portraits of the political and personal motivations of a large cast of characters," observed Jeffrey Toobin, The New Yorker's legal affairs correspondent.

The Mueller Report is out.

The public doesn't have it yet--and it's not clear if or when we will.

But over the last year and a half, Special Counsel Robert Mueller has been slowly compiling a written record of his investigation into President Trump and foreign interference in the 2016 election. He’s been posting results from the inquiry along the way, as sentencing memos, indictments, and other filings with federal courts. Believe it or not, they make gripping reading. So at Strong Arm Press we’ve taken those public documents and turned them into a book.

It was the firing heard round the world. With one impulsive move, on the advice of his son-in-law Jared Kushner, Donald Trump fired James Comey on May 9, 2017. It would change the course of the Trump presidency and, with it, alter the course of world history in ways both large and small. It was t...

Kerri Evelyn Harris’s run against Senator Tom Carper in September 2018 attracted national attention and shook the Delaware political machine to its core. It fell short, and since then, she’s been campaigning for allies in Delaware and in states in the region, and this week was arrested in Washington, D.C. as part of mass civil disobedience against the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.

Yet she’s been offered no paid work, and that’s not sustainable for somebody like Harris, an Air Force veteran and parent who lives, like most of the country, paycheck to paycheck.

Harris has a story to tell, and it’s one the country should hear, so let’s get her a People’s Book Deal. Kerri Evelyn Harris has a memoir in her that needs to be written, and Strong Arm Press, a progressive crowdfunded publishing house, is excited to be partnering with her on it. Help make it happen by contributing below.

The right wing takes care of its rising stars. When an up-and-coming Republican candidate runs an impressive race and falls short, there’s an entire industry waiting off stage for them with no-show fellowships, inflated speaking gigs or fat book deals with conservative imprints. Then two or four y...
