There's situations in Kalamazoo, Michigan, East Chicago, Indiana. I mean, it would take too long to name other cities with water contamination where the federal government, in coordination with state officials, are basically just kind of checking some boxes, doing some testing, cherry picking data to claim everything's fine.

And in the case of Flint, cancer is surging. Some cancers are up 300 to 500 percent. And meanwhile, you know, nobody is being held accountable. And my book kind of reveals a massive cover up.

I had thousands of confidential documents, smoking guns and media outlets would ask me if there was a Trump angle; there wasn't, and that's why I turned it into a book.

The only time off I actually had was when my daughter was born, and I wrote the book during her sleep; it took about a year of writing, editing, and finding a publisher.

People need to wonder why did they stop investigating? Amazing. Amazing. So Jordan, I'm going to make sure that we have, um, in the show notes in the description everywhere links to the book, because I think everyone needs to definitely read.
