"It is not enough just to get the necessary number of votes if those votes were not received according to the law." (from the book, p. 347)
What would it be like if the United States were no longer governed by the people? Look around you, says Brubaker. And, with the 2024 presidential election nearly upon us, failure to address the problem will leave every American open to the whim of tyrants and autocrats. Soon after the events of the 2020 U.S. presidential election, including the lightning-fast and sweeping uniform declaration by most information gatekeepers that the election had been "the most safe and secure in U.S. history," culminating in the January 20, 2021 inauguration of Joe Biden, postdoctoral researcher Daniel Brubaker set out to get to the bottom of what had just happened. Eighteen months later, the fruit of Dr. Brubaker's labor was published. "By The People?" has been called "encyclopedic." Among books about the 2020 election, "By The People?" is perhaps the most thorough in presenting the core constitutional problems, backed by well-documented data, synthesis of news and events, and the author's own discussion and analysis. And Brubaker's conclusions are careful, making his strong final assertion all the more compelling: "One fact that is now beyond doubt is that it cannot be confirmed that Joe Biden won the 2020 election. And, while it may or may not be now possible to state with scientific certainty that Donald Trump won, all the available evidence strongly recommends that conclusion. Indeed, the likelihood that Joe Biden was chosen by the people-that is, without resort to ballots that were illegally counted-approaches zero." (p. 362) PRAISE FOR BY THE PEOPLE?"Amazing-a huge work." -Daniel Lapin "A superbly comprehensive work which will serve as a permanent factual record for historians." -John Langlois, OBE "The most cogent, detailed, and thoughtful presentation of the facts and real issues surrounding the 2020 election that I have seen. I believe that most people simply do not understand so much of what Brubaker covers. Americans and others of all political persuasions will benefit from reading this book." -E.W. Jackson, President, S.T.A.N.D. Foundation "Well resourced and researched. Almost painful reminders. Please read the book. Please help protect the 2024 election." -Cleta Mitchell, Senior Legal Fellow, Conservative Partnership Institute
