Lessons Learned from Mad House pulls back the curtain on the chaos and dysfunction that have come to define modern-day Congress. Inspired by the eye-opening accounts of Annie Karni and Luke Broadwater, this riveting narrative unveils how a motley crew of political outsiders—including a used car salesman, a Florida Nepo baby, MAGA Mean Girls, and a man with literal rats in his walls—succeeded in breaking Washington, and by extension, the country.
With sharp wit and unparalleled insight, Lessons Learned from Mad House tells the story of the 118th Congress, a year marked by scandal, infighting, and the constant battle for power. From the improbable rise of controversial figures to the behind-the-scenes struggles that paralyzed the House, this book reveals how personal vendettas, media spectacle, and Trumpism reshaped the American political landscape.
As dysfunctional as it was entertaining, this Congress featured an ever-shifting cast of characters vying for control, with one question looming large: Who would survive the chaos—and at what cost?
If you thought politics couldn't get any crazier, think again. Lessons Learned from Mad House is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the inside story of how political circus acts became the norm—and the lessons we can all take away from the wreckage.
Get ready for an inside look at Washington's wildest, most unpredictable moments—no holds barred!
