Short Summary

- Detail specific examples of executive overreach, including proposed use of live munitions near protests and plans to restructure the IRS for political targeting.

I never had money growing up—just constant stress about bills, arguments, and being told "we cant afford it." Honestly, I thought something was wrong with me, until I stumbled across Nixorus books. The moment I started reading, I felt this anger rise—realizing Id spent my entire life kept clueless about money on purpose. It literally felt like discovering a secret I wasnt meant to know. Im still shocked no ones banned this yet.
