The Threat: How the FBI Protects America in the Age of Terror and Trump

An impassioned defense of the FBI's agents, and of the institution's integrity and independence in protecting America and upholding the Constitution.

The Threat is former deputy director of the FBI Andrew G. McCabe's dramatic and candid account of his career - a page-turning narrative spanning two decades when the FBI's mission shifted to a new goal: preventing terrorist attacks on Americans. But as McCabe shows, right now the greatest threat to the United States comes from within, as President Trump and his administration ignore the law, attack democratic principles, degrade human rights, and undermine the U.S. Constitution that protects every citizen.

Important, revealing, and powerfully argued, The Threat tells the true story of what the FBI is, how it works, and why it will endure as an institution of integrity that protects America.
