About the Book
"An examination of how un-elected activists use economic pressures to target their political opponents"-- Provided by publisher.Book Synopsis
Trump may be in office, but the Democrats have laid the groundwork for permanent power.
While the Biden-Harris administration pub-licly stumbled and flailed, their bureaucrats and allies outside of government have been turn-ing Republican nightmares into dystopian realities. Censoring the truth tellers. Debanking the politically disfavored. Firing the vaccine hesitant. Excluding the white, Christian, and conservative job applicants. Who needs a deep state when academia, big banks, corporations, and the healthcare system are willing to do what the deep state can't?
Now that they're out of power in the White House and Congress, the Democrats are mobilizing in the shadows, working to make sure an election like 2024 never happens again. In They're Coming for You, Jason Chaffetz reveals how Democrats have been planting the seeds of political control using unelected institutions that collect and weaponize pri-vate information. Most of us know we have traded our privacy for convenience. Most of us have cho-sen not to worry that the government will track our Facebook posts and arrest us. But what if an online retailer does? What if companies use that data to refuse to hire us, do business with us, or ship prod-ucts to us?
They're Coming for You lays bare the frighten-ing truth about how these institutions are collecting, buying, selling, and sharing our data without regard for our privacy, civil liberties, or national security. Republican political victories will ring hollow until this bureaucratic partnership with the nonprofit and private sectors is exposed and the power of the administrative state checked.
Review Quotes
"They're Coming for You is an unflinching exposé of unchecked bureaucratic power. The alarming data exploitation and widespread government surveillance Chaffetz lays out is a threat to the very foundation of our republic. Under the guise of nonpartisanship, the Biden administration weaponized federal agencies to steer elections and silence dissent. For those concerned about protecting personal freedoms from entrenched bureaucratic forces, this book is an essential and eye-opening read." -- Ambassador ROBERT C. O'BRIEN, former US national security advisor
"A compelling, critical read. The blatant weaponization of our private data for partisan ends is deeply troubling. Chaffetz provides ironclad proof showing how Biden administration regulators leveraged the private sector to target conservatives for prosecution, censorship, and debanking. This is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the subtle yet significant ways in which Americans were manipulated." -- EMILY COMPAGNO, Fox News cohost of Outnumbered
"With verve and the precision he demonstrated as the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, Jason Chaffetz exposes the powerful individuals and forces that are coming for you. A vitally important work." -- PETER SCHWEIZER, president of the Government Accountability Institute
"Every American has the fundamental right to privacy. In They're Coming for You, Congressman Chaffetz uncovers how governments, NGOs, and corporations exploit your personal data to track your actions, manipulate your choices, and erode your freedoms. He offers a critical wake-up call for anyone concerned about the erosion of privacy and autonomy." -- US Senator MIKE LEE
"While Americans consider privacy a foundational right, privacy has become the luxury of the future. In They're Coming for You, Jason Chaffetz exposes how the government has subjugated your rights and privacy, using Americans' personal data as both a soft social credit score exercise and to amass power for themselves. Chaffetz arms us with the data, stories, and proposed changes so that we can protect our privacy from the government and their collaborators and conspirators." -- CAROL ROTH, two-time New York Times bestselling author of You Will Own Nothing and "recovering" investment banker
