#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERFrom the first content creator to interview President Biden, leading progressive voice Brian Tyler Cohen takes a step back from the day-to-day news cycle to explain how the American political landscape has turned into such a dumpster fire—and what Democrats need to do to get us out of it.In Shameless, Brian Tyler Cohen lays bare the long con of the modern Republican Party. While the radical right continues hiding behind gaslighting maneuvers, artificial slogans, and hollow catchphrases, Cohen’s unflinching political commentary illuminates the realities and dangers of the ever-widening gulf between the vaunted Republican brand and their actual behavior.With a foreword by Congressman Jamie Raskin, drawing on interviews and insights from Pete Buttigieg, Mehdi Hasan, Jen Psaki, and other luminaries of the Left, Cohen reveals:How Republicans have leaned on their historical branding to give themselves a permission structure to behave antithetically to everything they say;Why the mainstream media has proved itself a willing participant in this ongoing farce— particularly since the rise of toxic, sensationalist MAGA mania; andWhat lessons Democrats can glean from a clear-eyed view of the landscape we’re operating in—and the steps we must take to rebalance our political landscape.During this all-hands-on-deck moment in our history, Shameless is essential reading for those seeking to understand our dire situation, and a rallying cry for those fighting to preserve constitutional democracy.

Recensioner i media

“Brian Tyler Cohen is a compelling, insightful and important voice in progressive media. In Shameless, he skillfully chronicles Republicans’ decades-long descent into a politics of dysfunction, disinformation and personal destruction. Offering hope, he also shares how each of us can participate in bringing our divided nation back together. A must-read for all those who know that in our fight to save American democracy, we don’t agonize — we organize to bring people together!” — Speaker Nancy Pelosi“Brian gets billions of views and interviews with presidents for a reason: he’s clear-eyed about the threat to democracy, creative in his approach to fighting back, and the kind of joyful warrior the progressive movement needs right now. This is a book with valuable lessons about what each of us can do to break through the noise of the right-wing media machine.” — Jon Favreau“Shameless makes clear why Brian Tyler Cohen is a rising star of the Left. In his distinctive, accessible style, he exposes the Big Lie of the Republican brand, which was built on the embrace of supposed family values, fiscal responsibility and respect for the constitution, when in reality the party has been steeped in ideas that are quite the opposite, and which undermine American democracy.” — Joy Reid"A refreshingly bold and candid voice." — Kirkus Reviews
