About this ebook
Unraveling the Tangled Web of Trump's Global Corruption
In the third volume of his Proof series, New York Times bestselling author Seth Abramson delves deep into the Ukraine scandal, revealing it to be more sinister, complex, and transnational than previously thought. Abramson's research positions the scandal as the foreseeable culmination of years of clandestine machinations involving scores of players, from Beijing to Budapest, Ankara to Caracas, Warsaw to Jerusalem, Kyiv to Riyadh, and Moscow to D.C.
Beyond the infamous July 2019 phone call that ignited the Ukraine scandal, Proof of Corruption exposes concurrent attempts by Trump's inner circle to take over Ukraine's national gas company and bolster dangerous pro-Kremlin oligarchs—moves that would have benefited Putin and destabilized Ukraine. From Trump's dealings with China that enriched his family to secretive, Kremlin-friendly negotiations in Venezuela that undermined U.S. policy, Abramson paints a vivid picture of global corruption.
As the COVID-19 pandemic exposes the staggering domestic consequences of the Trump administration's foreign machinations, Proof of Corruption serves as an urgent warning about the unprecedented threat posed by a corrupt president. Abramson lays bare Trump's decades-long pattern of corruption in this globe-spanning narrative, connecting the dots from the Middle East to an increasingly fractured United States.
