Where Tyranny Begins

In Where Tyranny Begins, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist David Rohde examines how Donald Trump strategically manipulated the Justice Department and FBI during his presidency, undermining their independence and public trust. The book explores how recent norms and reforms may have inadvertently favored Trump’s actions and raises concerns about the potential challenges of achieving accountability before the 2024 election. Rohde emphasizes the urgent need for substantial reforms to prevent further erosion of democratic protections.
