										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The investigative book <em>Secret Empires</em> by Government Accountability Institute&#8217;s (GAI) Peter Schweizer will debut at #1 on the <em>New York Times</em> combined print and e-book best-seller list, according to publishing industry sources.</p>
<p>Peter Schweizer resides in Tallahassee where GAI is located.</p>
<p>Tallahassee Reports will host an event featuring Peter Schweizer on April 23rd in Tallahassee. <a href="http://tallahasseereports.com/annual_spring_appeal/">Get details here</a>.</p>
<p><em>Secret Empires</em>, which is Schweizer’s fifth <em>New York Times</em> bestselling book, has caused a stir throughout official Washington with its newly unearthed revelations, including:</p>
<ul>
<li>
<ul>
<li>How Vice President Joe Biden’s son’s firm scored a $1.5 billion deal with the Communist Chinese government’s Bank of China only 10 days after Joe Biden and his son returned from China aboard Air Force Two in 2013</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<ul>
<li>How the Biden-China $1.5 billion fund (officially named Bohai Harvest RST) became an “anchor investor” in China General Nuclear—a company that, one year later, the FBI charged with stealing nuclear secrets in the United States</li>
<li>How Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and his wife Elaine Chao received a “gift” of <a class="x5l" href="https://nypost.com/2018/03/17/how-mcconnell-and-chao-used-political-power-to-make-their-family-rich/" target="_blank" rel="noopener external">$5 to $25 million</a> from a family member who sat on the board of one of the Communist Chinese government’s top military contractors</li>
<li>Mitch McConnell’s sister-in-law Angela Chao <a class="x5l" href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/author-alleges-china-used-business-deals-to-influence-families-of-mitch-mcconnell-joe-biden-1521141489" target="_blank" rel="noopener external">currently sits</a> on the board of the Communist Chinese government’s <a class="x5l" href="http://www.boc.cn/en/investor/ir6/201504/t20150402_4830133.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener external">Bank of China</a>.</li>
<li>Mitch McConnell’s father-in-law James Chao and sister-in-law Angela Chao previously sat on the board of China’s state-owned CSSC Holdings, the financial arm of the Chinese government’s military contractor CSSC. James Chao is also the father of current Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao. Angela Chao is her sister.</li>
<li>How the firm of Barack Obama’s best friend Marty Nesbitt scored big using the “smash and grab” technique wherein Obama would “smash” a company with onerous regulations before Nesbitt’s company would then “grab” the business for pennies on the dollar</li>
<li>New eye-opening revelations about George Soros, Tom Steyer, Penny Pritzker, Dick Durbin, Jared Kushner, and myriad other members of the Washington elite</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p>The author’s past books have led to federal investigations, congressional resignations, or the launch of Capitol Hill ethics probes.</p>
<p>Schweizer’s 2015 book, <em>Clinton Cash</em>, parked an FBI investigation into the Clinton Foundation.</p>
<p>In 2012, 60 Minutes covered Schweizer’s book Throw Them All Out, which uncovered insider trading by members of Congress and led to passage of the STOCK (Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge) Act that banned lawmakers from using inside knowledge when making personal investments. The 60 Minutes story won the Joan Shorenstein Barone Award for excellence in Washington-based journalism.</p>
