Synopsis

New York Times bestselling author Judge Andrew P. Napolitano exposes the alarming history of presidential power grabs performed in the name of national security.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 instead 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.

Washington had a chance to become King of the......more

Worried About Your Loss of Civil Liberties? – Read This Book In Suicide Pact, Judge Napolitano traces the loss of our civil liberties, not just from the most recent incursions by Presidents Bush and Obama, but throughout the history of our country.

Goodreads review by Joan on November 25, 2014

This is a book every U.S. citizen needs to read. The presidential expansion of power, especially during the Bush administration, is chilling. The torture Bush approved and Cheney directed is sickening. And the Supreme Court and Congress just let it all happen. Napolitano has done an excellent job ex......more

Judge Andrew Napolitano’s new book “Suicide Pact, The Radical Expansion of Presidential Powers and the Lethal Threat to American Liberty” analyzes legal and historical treatment of individual liberty under a Natural Law philosophy.

I was a fan of Napolitano, even before reading this book, and so I approached this book with eager anticipation. I must say, "Suicide Pact" does not disappoint.
