Summary:
"There is a direct line between the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing carried out by
Timothy
McVeigh
and the January 6 insurrection. This is the story of that historic arc -- from acclaimed journalist Jeffrey Toobin.
Timothy
McVeigh
wanted to start a movement. Speaking to his lawyers days after the Oklahoma City bombing, the Gulf War veteran expressed no regrets: killing 168 people was his patriotic duty. He cited the Declaration of Independence from memory: 'Whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it.' He had obsessively followed the siege of Waco, seethed at the imposition of President Bill Clinton's assault weapons ban and drawn inspiration from Rush Limbaugh. A self-proclaimed white separatist, he abhorred immigration and wanted women to return to traditional roles. He used a poster of Hillary Clinton for target practice. As he watched the industrial decline of his native Buffalo,
McVeigh
longed for a time when America was great. New York Times bestselling author Jeffrey Toobin traces the dramatic history and profound legacy of
Timothy
McVeigh
, who once declared, 'I believe there is an army out there, ready to
rise
up, even though I never found it.' But that doesn't mean his army wasn't there. With breaking-news reportage, Toobin details how
McVeigh
's principles and tactics have flourished in the decades since his death in 2001, reaching a culmination on January 6, 2021, when hundreds of rioters stormed the Capitol. Based on nearly a million previously unreleased tapes, photographs, and documents, including detailed communications between
McVeigh
and his lawyers, as well as interviews with such key figures such as Bill Clinton and Merrick Garland, 'Homegrown' reveals how the story of
Timothy
McVeigh
and the Oklahoma City bombing is not only a powerful retelling of one of the great outrages of our time, but a warning for our future."--Jacket.
