Book Review: The Split, by Kurt Schlichter
Kurt Schlichter has written a great new fictional book that all conservatives will love.
Kurt Schlichter has created a terrific fictional universe, with 6 great books in a series that began as fiction, but every day looks more and more like reality. The premise of this Universe is that the wokist forces in America force its breakup into 2 countries, one consisting of traditional Red States, the other consisting of wokist Blue States. The old USA was ripped apart by the hatred and corruption of the Left, with Red State America building a country based on the principles of the Constitution, while in the People’s Republic of North America, the brakes are off as Blue State America hurtles toward and awful and total social justice tyranny. The Blue States have become a Marxist/fascist hellhole, a place where regular people live in squalor and fear while the elites get fat off the hog. The Red States have become a vibrant center of freedom and capitalism, partly fashioned after the old Roman Republic, were citizenship is earned through military service, and only citizens have the right to vote. The two nations uneasily coexist, but go at each other’s throats covertly and overtly.
It’s a rollicking good read.
The Split is the 6th and latest book in the series, which boasts hundreds of thousands of fans and readers. It features his erstwhile hero, citizen-operative Kelly Turnbull. With an election to replace a senile and ineffective president fast approaching, the big political players within the new Blue State America — The People’s Republic — jockey for power and position, regardless of the cost to the country and who gets hurt or killed. Into this horrible maelstrom, Red State citizen-operative Kelly Turnbull is given a deceptively simple job by his shadowy boss – bring out a half-mad Harvard professor mathematical genius whose computer program could control the outcome of the election. But nothing in the new Split America is ever simple. And the computer program cannot be allowed to fall into the wrong hands in Blue State America. Otherwise, the consequences will be catastrophic.
From a harrowing mission into the socialist worker’s paradise of Cuba to a daring infiltration into the Blue State People’s Republic from Trudeauist Canada; from a full-blown guerrilla war led by We The People in the Adirondacks to an impossible heist in which Kelly must team up with a renegade conservative radio host and pack of retrograde, heavily-armed USA-loving Boston mobsters; the action in this fast-paced book never lets up. With his trusty Wilson Combat CQB .45 and his trademark bad attitude, Kelly Turnbull again does what he does best – lay waste to leftists for fun and fulfillment. You don’t assign Kelly Turnbull to a mission. You unleash him, like you would the hounds of hell. This time, he’s got a score to settle with a leftist killer– and he intends to do it with extreme prejudice.
Kurt Schlichter knows how to write and how to tell a darn good yarn. His books are self-published, and he could use a good editor and proof-reader to get rid of all the typos, but these are moonier items compared to the greatness and triumphant can-do American spirit which his books embody.
Don’t just buy this book. Buy all 6 in the series, and read them all. You’ll be glad you did.

With Representatives Like Kelly Daughtry, We Can Take Back America
Daughtry is a soft-spoken woman who gets things done
When President Trump takes office next January 20th, he’s going to need a cadre of strong-willed Congressional representatives. It’s not enough to simply retake the White House, we need the foot soldiers with the unshakeable resolve to restore America.
In North Carolina’s 13th district, one candidate is firmly rooted in the values that made this country great, and will make it great again. Her name is Kelly Daughtry and, quite frankly, the nation needs many others like her.
Raised in rural North Carolina and the daughter of a U.S. veteran, farmer, lawyer, and entrepreneur, Daughtry has been a practicing lawyer for the past 25 years in Johnston County, where she makes her home. She’s been in the trenches and is not skittish about the slings and arrows that come with taking bold, conservative positions for what is right.
Clear Positions on Vital Issues
Daughtry is exceedingly clear on where she stands and on what will improve the lives of American citizens. She is a vigorous supporter of law enforcement and decries ‘de-fund the police’ movements wherever they arise. She understands that, by and large, the men and women in law enforcement are dedicated, hardworking individuals who, in many instances, put their lives on the line.
Similarly, Daughtry supports the U.S. military and our veterans. She knows that nations around the world with rogue leadership wish to do us great harm, and that we must maintain a strong military at all times. Not coincidentally, a strong military is the best prescription for peace.
On the border issue, Daughtry recognizes that the Biden Administration is firmly committed to swamping our country with illegal aliens. Why? Because the U.S. Census count doesn’t focus on U.S. citizenship, only the number of residents per county and state.
Hence, Democrats can gain a 20-seat advantage in the U.S. House of Representatives by continuing to flood our nation. This ploy is precisely why Biden and company have brought lawsuits against border states seeking to protect themselves.
The drugs, the crime — the murders — and the bursting budgets of towns and states trying to cope with the onslaught of illegals should never have happened in the first place. Daughtry knows what needs to be done, and done immediately.
Reversing Biden’s Reckless Agenda
Daughtry will go to work on restoring our nation, dismantling Joe Biden’s reckless agenda for America. She understands that Biden’s policies towards China in particular, and the bribes he has taken, have been nothing less than devastating for hard-working Americans and for our national security.
Most notably, she is firmly opposed to the Chinese Communist Party and their representatives who are seeking to buy farmland throughout North Carolina as well as every other place in the United States.
Biden’s out-of-control spending has particularly hurt North Carolinians. Farmers have taken the brunt of the punishment. The unending inflation that we’ve faced for 38 months also has dealt a crushing blow to North Carolina small business owners and families in general. One of Daughtry’s first agenda items will be to help steer our country back towards fiscal sanity, which in turn will have a direct impact on the cost of groceries and gasoline.
Americans First
Like President Trump, Daughtry understands the importance of putting Americans first and of safeguarding or voting procedures, elections, and indeed what it means to be an American citizen. Of note, she has no misconceptions about the differences between men and women and will work to stop the malarkey that the Left imposes on us every day, with their “56” types of genders.
Daughtry is a soft-spoken woman and in her quiet way, gets things done. If Donald Trump had an army of Kelly Daughtrys, the country would be on firm footing in relatively short order. She knows what hard-working Americans want and need, and is exactly the type of politician that North Carolina must send to Washington D.C.
It is not an exaggeration to say that in Wake, Harnett, Johnson, and Wayne counties in North Carolina, as well as the entire state and entire country, the 2024 election will be the most important in our lifetimes. This has been said about other elections at other times, but considering the damage that the Democrats have wrought on America, the time is now to reclaim our great nation and, with the likes of Kelly Daughtry, we can.

Provocative Questions to Get You Moving
What would make you pause and think about what’s really important?
Suppose I asked you four questions to make you pause, think about what’s really important, perhaps take some action steps, and get you moving in a positive direction. What might I ask?
Here are four such questions:
* What would you do if you truly only had six months to live?
* What would you read if you could only pick six books for the rest of your life?
* If you could return to any age what would it be?
* If you could live anywhere other than here, where would it be?
By way of example, here is each question with my own answers to help stimulate your thinking:
What would I do if I truly only had six months to live? I would visit everyone who ever mattered to me one more time; visit all my childhood haunts; visit three or four tourist destinations in the world that I’ve wanted to see; eat like an incredible pig; parcel out my assets carefully and accordingly, safeguard my daughter’s financial future and well-being to the best of my abilities; and donate many items to charity.
If I could only read six books for the rest of my life, they would probably be The Timetables of History, Childhood’s End, The Call of the Wild, The One Hundred, From Dawn to Decadence, and The Culture of Celebrity. Runners-up would be The Demon-Haunted World, Crime and Punishment, Moby Dick, MacBeth, The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, and The World of Our Fathers
If I could be any age what would I be: 38, because at that age I had the optimal mix of capabilities and faculties, unbounded potential, and unbridled enthusiasm. My career as an author was beginning to bloom and amazingly I hadn’t yet been on my first of 45 cruises.
If I could live anywhere other than here, where would it be and why aren’t I there? The places I could settle include Asheville, NC; Austin, TX; Monterrey, CA; Sausalito, CA; Tucson, AZ; Las Vegas, NV; Vancouver, British Columbia; London, England; Paris, France; Vevey, Switzerland; Montreux, Switzerland; Bruges, Belgium; Helsinki, Finland; Gothenburg, Sweden; Stockholm, Sweden, and any place where it is spring, birds are chirping, and large lakes invite you to swim.
