Officially Announcing: "We Hold These 'Truths': How to Spot the Myths that are Holding America Back"
I can’t begin to tell you how pumped I am to finally share some big news with you all! My new book, We Hold These “Truths”: How to Spot the Myths that are Holding America Back, is now available for preorder and will hit the shelves on February 4, 2025. 🎉🎉🎉
Over the past several years, I've had countless conversations with people—left, right, and center—who are frustrated with our political system. And honestly, who can blame them? We’ve got some real problems in our politics—readers nod furiously—but they aren’t the problems you’re thinking of right now.
Our democracy is riddled with convenient falsehoods, spun by those who profit from the chaos. Many of us feel stuck in a never-ending cycle of political dysfunction. It ain’t on accident and we need to put a stop to it.
That's where We Hold These “Truths” comes in.
We have to cut through the noise and expose the myths that are holding us back. This book isn't just about complaining; we have plenty of that. It's about empowering YOU with the clarity and solutions needed to understand how our government actually works, and demand better.
I've teamed up with a dream team of officials, academics, and experts from across the political spectrum to bring you real-world insights and actionable steps forward.
Here's a sneak peek at some of the incredible contributors and myths we’re taking down:
Rep. Steve Israel on the influence of money in politics.
Alyssa Farah Griffin on the true powers of the President.
Lindsay Chervinsky on the wisdom of our Founding Fathers.
Rep. Derek Kilmer on what members of Congress actually do.
Cristina Antelo on why lobbyists are so powerful.
Casey Burgat on congressional term limits.
Rep. Bill Pascrell on why gridlock reigns supreme on major issues.
James Curry and Frances Lee on bipartisan legislating.
Adam Jentleson on the Senate filibuster.
Liliana Mason on “the rational voter.”
Steve Vladeck on the politicization of the Supreme Court.
Jane McManus on sports and politics.
Matt Fuller on the media’s impact on our polarized politics.
Think of this book as your civic-duty secret weapon. It’s the guide you’ll turn to again and again to make sense of the chaos, arm yourself with facts, and become the most informed person in any political discussion.
I'm incredibly proud of this work and can't wait for you all to read it. So, mark your calendars for February 4, 2025, and head over to Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or direct from the publisher to secure your copy today!
Thank you for your continued support, and let's work together to bring about the positive change our country needs.
Much love,
Casey
Let's go!
