American Kompromat

**THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER**

*Updated with a new afterword from the author*

Kompromat n.–Russian for „compromising information“

This is a story about the dirty secrets of the most powerful people in the world–including Donald Trump.

It is based on exclusive interviews with dozens of high-level sources–intelligence officers in the CIA, FBI, and the KGB; thousands of pages of FBI investigations, police investigations; and news articles in English, Russian, and Ukrainian. American Kompromat shows that from Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, kompromat was used in operations far more sinister than the public could ever imagine.

Among them, the book addresses what may be the single most important unanswered question of the entire Trump era: Is Donald Trump a Russian asset?

The answer, American Kompromat says, is yes, and it supports that conclusion with the first richly detailed narrative on how the KGB allegedly first „spotted“ Trump as a potential asset, how they cultivated him as an asset, arranged his first trip to Moscow, and pumped him full of KGB talking points that were published in three of America’s most prestigious newspapers.
