The Atlantic excerpts Alexander Vindman’s new book, Here, Right Matters: An American Story.

“It’s been a year of turmoil for the country, and for my family and me. I’m no longer at the National Security Council. I’m no longer an officer in the U.S. Army. I’m living in the great unknown, and so, to a great degree, is our country.”

“But because I’ve never had any doubt about the fitness of my decision, I remain at peace with the consequences that continue to unfold.”

Axios highlights a fiery Oval Office confrontation between Donald Trump and Joint Chiefs Chairman Mark Milley over the general’s public apology for appearing in a photo op with Trump at St. John’s Church, recounted in the new book, Frankly, We Did Win This Election:

TRUMP: Why did you apologize? That’s weak.

MILLEY: Not where I come from. It had nothing to do with you. It had to do with me and the uniform and the apolitical tradition of the United States military.

TRUMP: I don’t understand that. It sounds like you’re ashamed of your president.

MILLEY: I don’t expect you to understand.

“We asked him why, as president, he thought it was OK for him to continually tell the American people things that were not true, to lie again and again and again And he said to us, ‘You know, there’s a beautiful word, and it’s called disinformation.'”

Vanity Fair has a behind-the-scenes look at Donald Trump’s hours-long interview with Carol Leonnig and Philip Rucker “from his Mar-a-Lago throne” for their new book, I Alone Can Fix It.

“Trump started the interview by pointing out his enduring and unrivaled power within the Republican Party. He explained that he didn’t intend to follow the path of former presidents, who largely bowed out of the nitty-gritty of party politics. He was proud to say he genuinely enjoys this sport he found so late in life, and believes he plays it better than anyone else. The parade of Republican politicians flocking to Mar-a-Lago all spring to kiss his ring had both energized him, he said, and proved the value of his stock.”

Said Trump: “We have had so many, and so many are coming in. It’s been pretty amazing. You see the numbers. They need the endorsement. I don’t say this in a braggadocious way, but if they don’t get the endorsement, they don’t win.”

New York Times: “There tend not to be a lot of people to root for in Trump books. Reading them is like watching WWE fights in which all the wrestlers are heels, smashing each other with folding chairs.”

Politico: “Privately, former administration officials and top campaign aides have shared concerns about Conway’s upcoming tell-all in particular. The ex-president’s loyal former counselor is expected to give a hold-no-punches account of her time in the White House and those she worked alongside. Conway herself sat down with Trump for her book at Mar-a-Lago.”

“General Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, likened Donald Trump’s effort to hold on to power after the 2020 election to Adolf Hitler, saying the president was preaching ‘the gospel of the Führer’ with his lies about the election being stolen, according to a new book by two Washington Post reporters,” New York Magazine reports.

“As chronicled in I Alone Can Fix It, by Carol Leonnig and Philip Rucker, the Pentagon’s top general said shortly before the January 6 insurrection at the Capitol that Trump had led the country to the brink of its own ‘Reichstag moment,’ viewing him as a potential threat to American democracy.”

Washington Post: “Milley described ‘a stomach-churning’ feeling as he listened to Trump’s untrue complaints of election fraud, drawing a comparison to the 1933 attack on Germany’s parliament building that Hitler used as a pretext to establish a Nazi dictatorship.”

CNN reports Milley “was so shaken” that Trump and his allies “might attempt a coup or take other dangerous or illegal measures after the November election that Milley and other top officials informally planned for different ways to stop Trump.”

Eric Trump reportedly “flipped out” on the night of the 2020 election when the tide began to turn against his father, then-President Donald Trump, a new book claims, the HuffPost reports.

Said the younger Trump: “The election is being stolen… Where are these votes coming from? How is this legit?”

He also reportedly yelled at the campaign’s data analysts, as if it were their fault: “We pay you to do this. How can this be happening?”

The Washington Post has an excerpt of the must-read I Alone Can Fix It by Carol Leonnig and Phil Rucker.

“The morning of Nov. 3, 2020, President Trump was upbeat. The mood in the West Wing was good. Some aides talked giddily of a landslide… Trump’s voice was hoarse from his mad dash of rallies, but he thought his exhausting final sprint had sealed the deal. He considered Joe Biden to be a lot of things, but a winner most definitely was not one of them.”

Trump told aides: “I can’t lose to this fucking guy.”
