"Has Trump already stolen the 2020 election? Vote theft was once considered to be a marginal issue that no one wanted to talk about, but as the stakes have risen and the facts have become known--in large part thanks to this author--it is now recognized as one of the central issues deciding our presidential elections. The scope is staggering. In the Georgia 2018 midterm election alone--the testing ground--Republican voting officials quietly removed half a million voters from the voter rolls--including Martin Luther King's ninety-two-year-old cousin Christine Jordan. How Trump Stole 2020 is the story of the racially poisonous schemes to steal the 2020 election, the political operatives behind the trickery--and the hard right billionaires funding it all, written by the investigative reporter who has been covering this story from the outset"-- Provided by publisher

His uncanny investigative skills as well as his no-holds-barred style have made him an anathema among magnates on four continents and a living legend among his colleagues and his devoted readership.This exciting collection, now revised and updated, brings together some of Palast's most powerful writing of the past decade. Included here are his celebrated Washington Post exposé on Jeb Bush and Katherine Harris's stealing of the presidential election in Florida, and recent stories on George W. Bush's payoffs to corporate cronies, the payola behind Hillary Clinton, and the faux energy crisis. Also included in this volume are new and previously unpublished material, television transcripts, photographs, and letters.

Greg Palast untersucht, warum das FBI die Nachforschungen über einen Bin-Laden-Verwandten einstellte, und trifft auf gute Bekannte. Seine unermüdlichen Recherchen über die Wahlmanipulation bei der letzten US-Präsidentenwahl liefert Munition für Michael Moores Stupid White Men. In den geheimen Plänen von Institutionen wie dem Internationalen Währungsfond entdeckt er rücksichtsloses Kalkül (Aufstände inbegriffen) und konkrete Gefahren für Wirtschaft und Demokratie einzelner Länder. Seine Arbeit wird von Insidern heimlich mit Dokumenten unterstützt (so aus der Weltbank), von vielen geschätzt und von ebenso vielen gehaßt. In amerikanischen Medien kann er kaum veröffentlichen. Erstmals erscheinen seine Reportagen hier auf deutsch: angriffslustige und dabei ausgesprochen unterhaltsame Texte.
