Conservatives Without Conscience

In "Conservatives Without Conscience," John Dean critically examines the leadership of the Republican Party and the underlying authoritarian tendencies within the contemporary conservative movement. Drawing parallels between historical figures like J. Edgar Hoover and modern leaders such as Dick Cheney and Newt Gingrich, Dean highlights a troubling record of abuses of power. His analysis serves as both a cautionary tale about the dangers posed to democracy and a call to protect constitutional principles.
