Synopsis

Two-time New York Times bestselling author Jason
Chaffetz is back to blow the lid off the Democrats’ attempts to spend
unparalleled trillions and rewrite our election laws while never letting us get
back to normal.Why did the
left think they could solve the pandemic with burning cities, closed beaches,
blue state budget bailouts, and mail-in ballots nobody asked for? The coronavirus has been a
disaster for America, but it’s been an unprecedented opportunity for the left.
In They Never Let a Crisis Goes to Waste, Jason Chaffetz delves into
progressive efforts to leverage crises to force their priorities into law.
Whether the crisis is legitimate, fabricated, or exaggerated, the solution is
always the same: more government, less individual freedom, higher spending,
higher taxes.He explores how disaster
liberalism subjugates individual freedoms to political expediency in times of
crisis, and how Republicans need to be ready for next time.  Because when we allow government power to
become unlimited in a crisis, the crises will become unlimited.  Across the board, Democrat
leaders exploited the pandemic to achieve their agenda, invoking disaster
liberalism to justify unpopular and unconstitutional power grabs. Virginia
Governor Ralph Northam signed a gun control bill on April 10—three weeks into
pandemic—because he wouldn’t have to put up with tens of thousands of
protestors. Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers announced he was making it a criminal
offense to attend church or go to work, only to see his overreach struck down
by the state supreme court. Nancy Pelosi rammed through a $3 trillion liberal
wish list filled with proposals unrelated to COVID-19, that immediately died in
the Senate.If not for the courts and
local media, many of the Democrats’ schemes would have successfully been
implemented. As it was, many were—and many of the most egregious violations of
Americans’ rights were celebrated across the left. In They Never Let a Crisis
Go to Waste, Chaffetz uncovers Democrats’ game plan and calls upon all
Americans to protect ourselves against future incursions. If we don’t pay
attention, the left will use every crisis to implement its radical plan,
steadily eroding the freedoms we all hold dear. Only the American people have
the power to stop the left’s next power grab, as Chaffetz shows in this
powerful, thoroughly-researched call to action.

It's mostly well written. Had a few things that felt tacked on and unnecessary unless you felt the need purely for a political reason. Early on he says 'freedom begets prosperity and stability' and if you believe that you're likely to enjoy this book. Personally I felt the tactics he speaks of all t......more

Goodreads review by Charlie on May 14, 2021

I read this to get a balanced view, the view from the right as it were. Yes, there was some moderation in the book, some conservative ideas that hit home but there was also a lot of spin from the right, against the left. If the book had some sources and notes it could have made a stronger case but u......more

What a great read! Really points out all the hypocrisy by the left how one thing is right and another wrong even though they are the same thing. Really eye opening on what went on during the early 2020 CoVid time frame.......more
