our books are doing well and i think partly it's because the news cycle is moving so fast. there's always something to talk about and there's something they've been good at. but also, i think our mshth has gone from being baffled at the reaction to the election and the sort of refusal of people on the left to accept the results of the election. they've gone from being baffled to now starting to get angry and they look. give this president a chance. this is everyone's president. this is the direction of the country. let's let him do the things that the people who elected him sent him to washington to do. and we're sort of trying to lean into that, looking at both the direction that trump wants to take the country and also looking at all the forces that seems to be coalescing and plotting to defeat him and block him. another big book we have is another big best selling author ed klein has a new book coming this fall called "villain" how the forces on the left are conspiring to defeat trump, even after he's won the election. so, these are the kind of issues that i think our ma

and now on book tv we'll introduce the new president of the norton publishing company. give us a quick synopsis of your career to this point. >> my career, i've spent almost 34 years at ww north. i was hired as a college traveler, selling books to campuses in ohio and kentucky and indiana. always wanted to be an editor in the literature field and eventually editing anthologies of literature for 30 years and doing some other kinds of work. and then this, so, it's a great ride. >> what are your duties going to entail as the new president? >> i think my main duty is to keep on keeping on. this is very fabulous and unusual publishing company and i wanted to continue to do that. my duties are to learn what i don't know and to support all of these brilliant people to do what they really do well. >> well, we were going to ask you about books coming up this november that are publishing. what are some that you want to talk about? >> this-- we've got plenty. i'm going to start with "the rise and fall of adam and eve", who is an author i worked with for 20 years. steven has written

then part 2 of our conversation with best-selling author and journalist naomi klein on her new book, "no is not enough: resisting trump's shock politics and winning the world we need." >> the reason why i wrote this book very quickly, for me, usually takes me five years to write a book. i did this in less than five months. i really wanted it to come out before any kind of major crisis hits the united states. amy: all that and more, coming up. welcome to democracy now!, democracynow.org, the war and peace report. i'm amy goodman. president trump urged the republican congress today to repeal the affordable care act, even as senators began leaving washington, d.c., for the fourth of july recess with no plans in sight to vote on a replacement healthcare bill. in a tweet early this morning, trump wrote -- "if republican senators are unable to pass what they are working on now, they should immediately repeal, and then replace at a later date!" senate majority leader mitch mcconnell called off a planned vote on a senate healthcare bill after some members of his party balked over a congressi

she is out today with a new book, "no is not enough: resisting trtrump's shock k pols and winning thehe world w weeed" in the book, klein writes -- "this is one attempt to uncover how we got to this surreal political moment. it is also an attempt to predict how, under cover of shocks and crises, it could get a lot worse. and it's a plan for how, if we keep our heads, we might just be able to flip the script and arrive at a radically better future." naomi klein, welcome to democracy now! it is great to have you with us. you are beginning your tour across the united states. the book is called "no is not enough." what do you mean? >> as you know, i have been covering crises in major shock to countries for a long time. honest with you, when i wrote "the shock doctrine" and it came out 10 years ago, i actually kind of thought no was enough in a sense thought if we understood this particular tactic -- what i mean by "the shock doctrine," is the ways in which large-scale shock to societies, large-scale crises, economic crises, wars, coups, natural disasters, has systematically been used a righ

coming up sunday morning, newt gingrich talks about his new book "understanding trump."nd humane society president and ceo wayne discusses his book "the humane economy." also financial times columnist on his book "the retreat of western liberalism." be sure to watch c-span's "watch it to journal" -- "washington journal" live at 7:00 a.m. on sunday and join the discussion. timrrow on "newsmakers," walz will look at overhaul of the veterans affairs department and the accountability at which the house passed earlier this week. he serves as regular member on the veterans affairs committee. a reporterg him is from politico. 10:00 and 6:00at on c-span. barack is completely presented to his story and that is different from history. >> part one of our interview with biographer david garrow and talk to buy his book "rising star: barack obama." >> i think that barack's political aspirations and since of destiny lead him to push sheila jager aside. during that time, there was a well-known political figure in chicago. hugely respected man. senator did newhouse who everybody in black

i'm thrilled to share with you my new book "the swamp" officially out today.got wild this morning. i appeared on "fox & friends" to talk about the trump win at the supreme court in health care. we chatted about the swamp a bit. after that, you know what hit the fan. the president retreated and the drudge report posted "the swamp" on his homepage which is probably the most influential new site on the web. thanks to those two things, the swamp has skyrocketed to get to number on amazon. thank you for the support. my family, friends, and colleagues came out last night to support and celebrate the launch of the new book. we had a blast. >> i want to say congratulations with another must-read fantastic book "the swamp" ." >> i am thrilled for eric. i've been working with eric for over five years. to share the stage so to speak with him every day is incredible. super proud of you and i know "the swamp" is going to be a number one bestseller. >> eric combines brilliance, practicality, economic wisdom and insight. >> great hair, great book. tell me about the book. >>

his new book out, "understanding trump."hink about what you just heard there, and the attorney just mentioned selective leaks to damage the president. if the deep state, those that have been leaking, aren't dealt with and prosecuted now and the attorney general mentioned just one prosecution, but there are others at a much higher level, to me they've got a minnow, and they really need to get the great whites. i don't think this ever ends for the president, i'm glad i can make you laugh. if we don't get these top people, it's dangerous. >> let me be clear. this is not about the president or getting the president. i agree with general kelly, the secretary of homeland security who said, many of these verged on treason. this is about the survival and the safety of the united states of america and the people of the united states. i don't care if you are pro trump or anti-trump, there is no excuse for people taking on themselves the right to take secrets and release them. candidly, there is no excuse for the news media picking the

. >> i won't start a new book if i know i'm going to court or getting out, without having enough time to finish it. because i feel like if i leave a book unfinished, i'll come back to finish it. i just have superstitions. i don't write my name anywhere in the jail because if you write your name in the jail, you're going to come back. it's just different things. if an officer drops keys in front of you, that means you're going home. last time i went to bail review, the officer dropped keys in front of me. but i didn't go home, so i guess that one doesn't work. anything that i was wearing when i got arrested, i throw away and don't wear it again. >> as it turned out, megan played her cards correctly. the next day in court, her armed robbery charge was lowered to a less serious larceny charge. and even though she was found guilty of that and the drug possession charges, she was released based on the time she had already spent in jail. whether any officers dropped their keys in front of her, we never found out. >>> coming up -- >> all right, no gang affiliation? never have? >> absolutely

his new book is "al franken giant of the senate." there of a book that is a serious memoir with funny observations and one of the things that strikes me is i know some people advised you to not tell any jokes for six years. so that you could prove to washington that you were arriving as a serious man and you seem to have snapped out of that. >> i won the first time by 312 votes and i really had to convince people i was serious sdw was a vicious campaign and it took every piece of comedy i'd ever done and put it through a $15 million machine called the dehumorizer built with israeli technology and robbed everything i'd ever done of the context and made me sound like i wasn't -- like i was a terrible person and so i think i had to tell the people of minnesota i was serious about doing my job and i was. so i became a work horse and a show horse and now i'm a work horse but with a sense of humor aagain. >> the sense of humor's back. really surprising stories in here for people who don't know anything about senate life. for example yourela

but a new book argues there are also limits to how much digital technology can accomplish. >> sreenivasan: the day after the inauguration of president donald trump, an estimated 3.5 million people in cities around the country and the world took part in the women's march, protesting the trump agenda in what may have been the largest collective protest in american history. the march started with a single facebook post and grew from there. in raleigh, north carolina, professor zeynep tufekci was one of those faces in the crowd. >> marches are great. they're really empowering to people. but the magic isn't really in the streets by itself or any online action; it's when you look at the action when you're say, a legislator, thinking, "hmm, if they can march with a million people, what else can they do?" >> sreenivasan: tufekci teaches in the school of information at the university of north carolina chapel hill and is the author of the new book, "twitter and tear gas: the power and fragility of networked protest." >> the twist in the 21st century seems to be, since we can a do things much easier

. >> a new book. >> we're going have some breaking news stories tonight involving the investigation of russian interference in our presidential election in favor of the trump campaign. "the washington post" is reporting tonight that the russian interference in the election, which was designed to help the trump campaign may be paying off very soon. the post reports the trump administration is moving toward handing back to russia two diplomatic compounds near new york city and on maryland's eastern shore from which its officials were ejected in late december as punishment for moscow's interference in the 2016 presidential election. then president barack obama said december 29th that the compounds were being used by russian personnel for intelligence-related purposes, and gave russia 24 hours to vacate them. these are the russian government's playpens here in the united states. they are luxury retreats where russian diplomats play tennis, swim, and sail and apparently plan their attacks on american democracy. the other big breaking news story tonight in the investigation involves attorney

it isn't often that one can find the publication of a new book to an international event or i should say it isn't often one can arrange an international referendum in a friendly country to be timed perfectly with the publication of a new book. but it turns out that today we have a confluence of. we have the referendum in turkey that although the results and process were provocative and controversial and i'm sur ensure will hear more about that. the result seems to be to elevate the existing precedent into an even higher and more elevated position and one that might be able to call the new sultan. surprisingly enough, that is th. title of the new book by the director of the institute'srkise program the crisis of modern turkey. right away we know that turkey is a country in crisis as the subtitle of the book suggests. the subject of today's discussion is what kind of crisis. how lasting a crisis, at home, abroad, getting worse or gettin better now that there may beve some clarity about the production of the turkishbo leadership.my i will welcome my colleague here at the institute and w

background and you'll see in the book that anne-marie is -- it's an exciting opportunity to discuss her new book, and why don't we just right in. tell us about the thesis of the book and about why you decided to write the book now. >> guest: dennis, it's great to talk to you, and to be able to reflect on both of our experiences actually as foreign policy practitioners. i've been writing about networks since 1994. so as a scholar, i've been looking at how the world was moving increasingly from big, hierarchical organizations like the united nations or the imf or the world bank and increasingly toward networks of government officials like central bankers or finance ministers, but also big networks of ngo's when there's a humanitarian disaster you see all this nongovernmental organizations playing an increasingly important role. when i was in government and indeed you chaired many of those situation room meetings. what would strike me was that we knew there was a world of states and state reps. if you think about north korea or iran or sometimes china and russia, that world of state to state relati
