How We Got Here: The Left's Assault on the Constitution - Heartland Diary USA, #5

The essays by journalist Frank Miele in this collection span from 2004 to 2018. "How We Got Here" is Volume 5 of the Heartland Diary USA series. Most of these essays originally appeared in the Daily Inter Lake in Kalispell, Montana, where Miele worked for 34 years, including 18 years as managing editor. Miele gained a wide following for his weekly conservative "Editor's 2 Cents" commentaries, which are now collected in the Heartland Diary series.
The author, who is now a columnist for Real Clear Politics, has used his position as a journalist to expose the assault on the Constitution that has been under way for more than 100 years. You will read essays about the runaway court system, the progressive agenda, the New Deal, 1960s radicals like Bill Ayers, the illusion of free health care, and the continuing struggle for American values fought by patriots like Dorothy Thomson, Ayn Rand, Sarah Palin and many more.
Miele finds common ground with Donald Trump and declares himself to be a sworn enemy of Fake News. Economist Richard L. Spencer, who wrote the introduction to the Heartland Diary USA series, commends Miele as "America's diarist" and believes that Miele's columns represent a vital resource for future historians.
