Last week, Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz issued a criminal referral to the U.S. Attorney's Office in Washington, D.C., related to McCabe. The referral reportedly came after the inspector general concluded McCabe had lied to investigators and Comey over his contact with the media during the 2016 presidential race.

Corsi argues both are part of a nefarious plot by the "Deep State" – consisting of well-funded hard-left extremists, the mainstream media, and Obama/Clinton holdovers and clandestine forces within the U.S. intelligence apparatus – to block and undermine Trump's every move.

His book defines a three-point strategy Trump – as a political independent, opposed both by Democratic Party enemies and GOP establishment – must employ to stay in office and have a chance of a successful first term in office.
