Advanced Praise for Unprecedented Assault

“J.T. Young clearly and forcefully explains how the socialist movement has taken hold of America by exploiting the expansion of federal government. Unprecedented Assault not only takes readers through the history of this resurgence of radicalism, it also provides a useful road map for how to get the country back on track.”

Mollie Hemingway, editor-in-chief at The Federalist

"If you want to understand modern socialism in America, then you must understand the government behemoth that funds the enterprise. Socialism doesn't organically grow in America, it has to be tended and artificially juiced by American tax dollars. Leftism in America, the font of socialism, has been systematically created by a government full of unelected leftists who are remaking America by any means necessary. J.T. Young lays out his case in his book Unprecedented Assault: How Big Government Unleashed America's Socialist Left in painful detail. Read it and weep."

Melissa Mackenzie, Publisher of the The American Spectator

“JT Young's book is a much-needed eye-opener.”

—The Daily Economy

“At a critical moment for America, Unprecedented Assault offers a brilliant explanation for-the rise of America’s socialist Left and its goals. It's frightening to learn how the left has hijacked the freedom and prosperity agenda. And it's time for conservatives to fight back against these dangerous and unprecedented assaults if we are to make America great again. The clock is ticking.” 

STEVE MOORE, nationally recognized commentator on economics, and president of the Committee to Unleash Prosperity

“In Unprecedented Assault, prolific writer and former corporate executive J.T. Young identifies a new and dangerous movement in the Democratic Party, ‘the socialist Left.’ They have different goals, tactics, and policies than the Democrats of the past, and a very different and disturbing vision for America, one with ‘more centralized control, more limitations, and fewer individual freedoms.’ Anyone concerned about American politics—and American liberty—should be paying attention.”

Tevi Troy, presidential historian, former senior White House aide, and author of The Power and the Money: The Epic Clashes Between Commanders in Chief and Titans of Industry

"...a compelling conservative riposte to progressive orthodoxies."
