Matthew Russell - If One Falls Down

Matthew Russell joins Pete A Turner on the Break It Down Show to discuss his book about his experience working in congress. Just another book about Congress? No. In these pages, the reader will see how Congress actually works from someone who worked there 11 years, the problems that plague it, and learn real solutions to restore the republic where the people are in control. Russell reveals the root cause which is controlling Congress and taking your freedoms is an Executive Branch whose agencies have become so powerful, they now control and run the country-immune from congressional oversight.

“The basic argument of this book is that Congress struggles to function because it has given its power to, or had its power taken away by, the Executive Branch agencies and departments,” said Russell. “Much of Congress’s problems are because of this reason. Furthermore, Congress has been co-opted by Executive Branch agencies and departments. Often, when Congress does pass a major policy bill that is very contentious, it is because incredible pressure-or force-is exerted by an Executive Branch agency which wants that policy made law. This helps explains why, when so many Americans oppose the passage of a controversial bill or a massive spending bill that gives money away to other countries while Americans are hurting, Congress (on both political sides of the aisle) largely ignores their demands and common sense and pass it anyway.”
