Această carte este biografia neoficială a Melaniei Trump, Prima Doamnă a SUA, și bestseller the New York Times. A fost publicată în iunie 2020, în SUA. De-a lungul vieții sale publice, Melania Trump și-a construit cu mare pricepere personalitatea enigmatică și imaginea misterioasă. Cu sprijinul unor persoane importante, care au vorbit public pentru prima oară, și folosindu-se de documente și înregistrări inedite, autoare cărții ARTA EI DE A REUȘI. POVESTEA NESPUSĂ A MELANIEI TRUMP ne invită să privim dincolo de aparențe. Vom descoperi o femeie sigură pe sine și de o inteligență uimitoare, care a ajuns Prima Doamnă a Americii și un adevărat Pop Icon. Mary Jordan schițează călătoria Melaniei de la viața în Slovenia, unde familia s-a remarcat prin nonconformism, trecând prin perioada în care era tânăr model în plină ascensiune – când evită să meargă la obositoarele petreceri organizate de mai-marii industriei de fashion și împărțea o garsonieră micuță din Manhattan cu un prieten fotograf – și până la începuturile relației cu Donald Trump, legătură ce a dus, până la urmă, la căsătoria cu viitorul președinte. Autoarea a strâns dovezi care ne arată ce rol important a avut Melania în viața politică a lui Trump (înainte și după ajungerea la Casa Albă). În plus, explică motivele pentru care cel de-al 45-lea președinte al SUA mizează pe instinctul ei politic mai mult decât pe al oricărei alte persoane.

"Based on interviews with more than one hundred people in five countries, The Art of Her Deal: The Untold Story of Melania Trump draws an unprecedented portrait of the first lady. While her public image is of an aloof woman floating above the political gamesmanship of Washington, behind the scenes Melania Trump is not only part of President Trump''s inner circle, but for some key decisions she has been his single most influential adviser. Throughout her public life, Melania Trump has purposefully worked to remain mysterious. With the help of key people speaking publicly for the first time and never-before-seen documents and tapes, The Art of Her Deal looks beyond the surface image to find a determined immigrant and the life she had before she met Donald Trump. Mary Jordan traces Melania''s journey from Slovenia, where her family stood out for their nonconformity, to her days as a fledgling model known for steering clear of the industry''s hard-partying scene, to a tiny living space in Manhattan she shared platonically with a male photographer, to the long, complicated dating dance that finally resulted in her marriage to Trump. Jordan documents Melania''s key role in Trump''s political life before and at the White House, and shows why he trusts her instincts above all. The picture of Melania Trump that emerges in The Art of Her Deal is one of a woman who is savvy, steely, ambitious, deliberate, and who plays the long game. And while it is her husband who became famous for the phrase "the art of the deal," it is she who has consistently used her leverage to get exactly what she wants. This is the story of the art of her deal."--Provided by publisher.

A compelling and masterful account, based on fresh reporting, of the investigation, impeachment, and acquittal of President Donald Trump, a ferocious political drama that challenged American democracy itself. In the spring of 2019, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi did not favor pursuing Trump’s impeachment. Her view was: “He’s just not worth it.” But by September, after a whistleblower complaint suggesting that Trump had used his office for his political benefit, Pelosi decided to risk it. The impeachment inquiry led to charges of abuse of power and obstruction of Congress, a gamble that ultimately meant Trump would be the first impeached president on the ballot in US history. Pulitzer Prize–winning Washington Post reporters Kevin Sullivan and Mary Jordan have crafted a powerful, intimate narrative that concentrates on the characters as well as the dramatic events, braiding them together to provide a remarkable understanding of what happened and why. Drawing on the deep reporting of Post journalists as well as new interviews, Sullivan and Jordan deliver a crisp page-turner with exquisite detail and scenes. They put readers in the room for both sides of the now-famous phone call between Trump and Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky on July 25, 2019, revealing the in-the-moment reactions of those listening to the call in Washington, as well as the tension in Kyiv, as aides passed notes to Zelensky while he was talking to Trump. Sullivan and Jordan deftly illuminate the aims and calculations of key figures. Pelosi’s evolution from no to yes. Trump’s mounting fury as “the I-word” became inevitable. Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell firmly telling Trump on the phone about the Senate trial: You need to trust me. Trump on Trial teems with unexpected moments. House member Elissa Slotkin, a Michigan Democrat, alone at the National Archives, walking amid the nation’s founding documents, weighing her vote on impeachment. Fiery Republican congressman Matt Gaetz of Florida, a favorite Trump warrior, deciding to lead the storming of the secure room in the US Capitol basement, where witnesses were testifying. The authors paint vivid portraits of the men and women branded by the president’s supporters as foes from the “deep state”: Ukraine experts Fiona Hill and Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman; ambassadors Marie Yovanovitch and William Taylor. The narrative spools out amid Trump’s nonstop tweeting and the infinite echo chamber of social media, which amplified both parties’ messages in ways unknown during past impeachments. Sullivan and Jordan, aided by editor Steve Luxenberg, follow the story into the aftermath of Trump’s acquittal and the president’s payback for those whom he believed had betrayed him. The retributions took place as the nation reeled from a devastating pandemic and widespread protests about racial injustice, with another trial looming: the 2020 election.

Presidential candidates are a breed apart, often propelled by traits that have shaped their careers and have deep roots in personal histories. Often their greatest strength can turn at supernova speed into their greatest weakness. The exact qualities that set them apart from the field trip them up eventually over the long haul of a presidential campaign. Florida Sen. Marco Rubio is a man in a hurry, whose dizzying political ascent—he has never lost a race—is a testament to his quickness to spot openings and go for them. The question now, as he aims for the White House, is whether voters ultimately see Rubio as refreshing and bold, the inspiring face of a new generation—or just a promising young pol getting ahead of himself. In this series of eBooks, The Washington Post is exploring in-depth all these key characteristics of the leading presidential contenders, the very characteristics that could help make one of them the country’s next commander in chief—or forever sink their presidential ambitions.

"Charter schools have developed in the United States as part of reform efforts to improve what many in this country see as a failing public education system. Charter schools are becoming increasingly popular as states across the country, including Missouri, are expanding their numbers of charter schools despite the fact that research demonstrating that charter schools in the United States consistently outperform Traditional Public Schools (TPS) at significant levels is limited. Specific to Missouri, there are very few research studies related to charter school achievement. This study analyzed the achievement differences between charter schools, urban schools, and suburban schools in Missouri as measured by the English Language Arts and mathematics portions of the Missouri Assessment Program (MAP). The Missouri Comprehensive Data System (MCDS) was used to gather the percentage of students who were proficient and advanced on the 4th grade English Language Arts and math portions of the MAP in 2012 and 2013."--[portion of abstract]
