The complete riveting transcript of the historic case against the president for igniting the January 6 siege of the Capitol "Stop the steal." "The inciter in chief." "The January exception." "Fight like hell." "The Framers' worst nightmare." "Our President wants us here." "Is this America?" "President Trump may not know a lot about the framers, but they certainly knew a lot about him." The second impeachment trial of President Donald J. Trump, following the norm-shattering attempt by his followers to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power, seared a new lexicon into our collective consciousness and marked a watershed moment in American history. The case, presented to the Senate by impeachment managers from the House, marked a bravura performance by members of Congress who were themselves the targets of the rioters incited by the president only days earlier. Including the full text of the arguments made over four days by the nine House representatives led by Representative Jamie Raskin, and also the full text of Trump's defense--as well as charts and graphs entered as evidence, and stills from the videos presented-- Prosecution of an Insurrection preserves for posterity an episode that ranks with the McCarthy Hearings, Watergate, and the Iran/Contra Investigation for its importance in American political history.

This book explores the origins, conduct, and failure of Greek Cypriot nationalists to achieve the unification of Cyprus with Greece. Andrew Novo addresses the anti-colonial struggle in the context of: the competition for the nationalist narrative in Cyprus between the Left and Right, the duelling Greek-Cypriot and Turkish-Cypriot nationalisms in Cyprus, the role of Turkey and Greece in the conflict on the island, and the concerns of the British Empire during its retrenchment following the Second World War. More than a narrative history of the period, an analysis of British policy, or a description of counter-insurgency operations, this book lays out an examination of the underpinnings of the enosis cause and its manifestation in action. It argues that the strategic myopia of the enosis movement shackled the cause, defined its conduct, and was the primary reason for its failure. Divided and occupied, Cyprus, and the world, deal with its unresolved legacy to this day.
