The Republican Path was designed to portray a young conservative's vision for how America may become a successful country in the future. While much of the book focuses on the short-term political landscape, there are multiple long-term implications as well. The ultimate goal of this book is to advocate for fresh leadership and ideas in America and to highlight how every single American voice should be heard. Therefore, I have included a short analysis of all fifty states in America. Having an America where we see all people as equals, regardless of where you may live, attend school, or what you believe in, is critical.The accounts of this book are designed to give every American a positive and uplifting view for America's future. It is not written by a politician either, which makes it more unique. In addition, even individuals who are not typically interested in politics may become fonder of this subject matter after completion of reading it.Our next generation needs new leadership for many years to come, and the Republican path is designed not only to begin 2024 but also to continue well after that to ensure freedom will always persevere in the United States of America.Thank you to every single person, whether they be Republican, Democrat, or Independent, who reads this book.

He demands Doc to surrender to his demands and hand over the property. His intentions are to resume selling cheap whiskey and loose women. Carlson has the backing of a United States Congressman and a group called the Network. Carlson believes he can intimidate Doc with his bullying. That was his first mistake.

In this new and exciting book, you'll intimately come to know my journey from four years old to present time and my ascension to the level of master teacher, Reiki master, author, and co-owner of the Healing Environment Center in Smyrna, Georgia. You'll get acquainted with the challenges and supernatural events I encountered along the way that shaped and molded me into the ever-evolving person that I am today. Growing up in a time when there were very few Black men who outwardly showed empathic and energetic gifts made it challenging to accept the divine masculine and the divine feminine empathic gifts that I was born with, so I was forced to go at it alone on many occasions to lean on every lesson and challenge that I faced to ultimately learn and grow. The limited beliefs that I acquired in my younger years enabled me to hide my true self and my many psychic gifts in order to be accepted. I ultimately found truth in the acceptance and love for who I am, as we are all part of the Creator. This book describes the divine path that was carved out for me well before I was born in this life and how I intricately chose my parents for lessons that I needed to learn and picked every major person in my life who helped me grow and evolve consciously. My intention is that this book will provide hope and motivation for all that read it and have comfort in knowing that they are going through similar lessons in their own lives and journeys.

A secret preview into the treacherous journey of a man thrown from a successful life in Silicon Valley into the dark asphyxiating prison of San Quentin, with murders, serial killers, rats, and COVID around every corner. This true story is told by an inmate who was inside, living and breathing in the system of incarceration for nearly two years. He paints a masterpiece of detail by challenging the stigma that prisoners are less than people, that law enforcement is superior, and that the system of incarceration in the United States is still functioning. You will join him in the cell while he recounts hunger strikes, malnutrition, panic, and pandemonium, by weaving comedic banter with a stoic sense of realism. This is a captivating tale of how sick and dying men, caused by the nationally publicized disaster of thirty deaths in a short period in the prison, stitched together the remnants of their shattered dignity and formed a brotherhood to withstand all odds; it paints the solo journey of a man's struggle through addiction, loss, corruption, oppression, racism, and fear. You won't put down this enthralling and uttering engrossing saga of survival, a triumphant testament to the endurance of the human spirit, loyalty, respect, and the fallacy of rehabilitation while incarcerated.
