Par Peter Navarro. 2022
"In this follow-up to the breakout bestseller In Trump Time, Peter Navarro explains why Trump lost the White House in…
2020 and how he will win it back in 2024 - and none too soon. Steve Bannon, the chief architect of Trump's 2016 win, describes Taking Back Trump's America as "a brass-knuckled insider's account of the merciless 2020 fall and miraculous 2024 rise of the White House of Trump." In Peter Navarro's telling-he was in all of the rooms where it happened-Trump's fall may be laid squarely at the feet of a coterie of incompetent and disloyal "bad personnel" inside the White House. They continually sought to undermine the commander in chief they putatively served and included everyone from Attorney General Bill Barr, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin, and National Economic Council Directors Gary Cohn and Larry Kudlow, to National Security Advisors H.R. McMaster and John "Dr. Strangelove" Bolton, Jared "Rasputin" Kushner, the Four-Star Traitors in Generals John Kelly and Jim Mattis, and four of the worst chiefs of staff in White House history. This confederacy of predatory globalists, Never-Trump Republicans, wild-eyed Freedom Caucus nut jobs, and self-absorbed Wall Street transactionalists would constantly delay, disrupt, and deter a set of populist, economic, nationalist, and "tough on China" actions and policies that would have otherwise carried Donald Trump to a landslide victory." -- Provided by publisherGo-to dinners: a Barefoot Contessa cookbook (Barefoot Contessa cookbook)

a repertoire of recipes that she knows will turn out perfectly every time.

You'll find lots of freeze-ahead, make-ahead, prep-ahead, and simply assembled recipes so you, too, can make dinner a breeze. In Go-To Dinners, Ina shares her strategies for making her most satisfying and uncomplicated dinners. Many, like Overnight Mac & Cheese, you can make ahead and throw in the oven right before dinner. Light dinners like Tuscan White Bean Soup can be prepped ahead and assembled at the last minute. Go-to family meals like Chicken in a Pot with Orzo and Hasselback Kielbasa will feed a crowd with very little effort. And who doesn't want to eat Breakfast For Dinner? You'll find recipes for Scrambled Eggs Cacio e Pepe and Roasted Vegetables with Jammy Eggs that are a snap to make and so satisfying. Ina's "Two-Fers" guide you on how to turn leftovers from one dinner into something different and delicious the second night. And sometimes the best dinner is one you don't even have to cook! You'll find Ina's favorite boards to serve with store-bought ingredients, like an Antipasto Board and Breakfast-for-Dinner Board that are fun to assemble and so impressive to serve. Finally, because no meal can be considered dinner without dessert, there are plenty of prep-ahead and easy sweets like a Bourbon Chocolate Pecan Pie and Beatty's Chocolate Cupcakes that everyone will rave about. For Ina, "I love you, come for dinner" is more than just an invitation to share a meal, it's a way to create a community of friends and family who love and take care of each other, and we all need that now more than ever.
