About the Book

'An invaluable guide to the forces of American conspiracy theory that are currently bending our world out of shape' Gabriel Gatehouse, presenter of 'The Coming Storm' on BBC Radio 4 The MAGA movement was in retreat after Donald Trump’s defeat in 2020, but the fascist fringes have not just survived, they continue to thrive and burrow into the mainstream. The January 6 Capitol riot prosecutions have done little to curb their enthusiasm for mayhem. In this chilling exposé of the far right, Mike Wendling encounters Covid deniers, QAnon supporters, Capitol rioters, and Proud Boys, uncovering the roots of a movement that threatens to shatter the foundations of democracy. Trump’s base in the GOP is committed to their candidate like never before. Apocalyptic messaging ensures that white nationalist groups see the next election as a life-or-death struggle, and they are uniting to back the one person they can all agree on.

Review :
'Mike Wendling reaches parts of the rabbit hole few other reporters venture down. He is an invaluable guide to the forces of American conspiracy theory that are currently bending our world out of shape.' 'A vivid and sobering look of the web of connections that link the furthest reaches of the far right to the presumptive Republican presidential nominee. Day of Reckoning is a stark warning about extremists on the march, seeking to consolidate their power, and how far they have already advanced.' 'An excellent piece of frontline reporting that gives its readers goosebumps. Mike Wendling powerfully exposes the drivers behind today's most dangerous anti-democracy movements. An essential read for those who value liberal democracy as we know it.'
