"
The book is called The Air, Inside the Not-So-Secret Network of Alex Soros.
I wrote about his father back in 2022. I had a book called The Man Behind the Curtain that I know Dan's audience really enjoyed.
The first one, I think we sold the first week three or four times the amount of copies you need to sell to make the New York Times bestseller. And they snubbed it.
I got good reviews from like Steve Bannon and Newt Gingrich. I got the president of Albania to review it.
I argue he's more dangerous than his father, and the book outlines how Alex inherited and expanded the Soros empire.
