No, your link was a pdf stored in the cloud with no cooperation nor connection to the author.Proof of what? You asked where it comes from, I answered.
I told you where to look to verify the information. As it's a book, I'm not sure how you expect me to post the original. I'm not mailing you a copy, if that's what you're asking for.No, your link was a pdf stored in the cloud with no cooperation nor connection to the author.
If the appendix is available on line. Where is the book?I told you where to look to verify the information. As it's a book, I'm not sure how you expect me to post the original. I'm not mailing you a copy, if that's what you're asking for.
I suggest trying your local library. Also, I wasn't the person who posted the link.
The linked pdf was probably posted under fair-use copywriter exceptions. Posting the whole book would probably be frowned upon.If the appendix is available on line. Where is the book?
You seem worked up over this vital issue of the day.If you didn’t post the link why are you defending it?
I’m one of those inconvenient people who wants proof. There is no support to law k it anywhere, yet people are supposed to believe it?
HALLELUJAH!!!! This is one of the most important selections that I was praying would get confirmed.
I never did feel as strongly in his direction as others, but I am glad he's in and pray he'll do an excellent job for the nation ..
With the most important picks in its a comfort anyway..
Generally speaking, companies defend their copyrights (they have to, if they want to keep them). The book is not in the public domain, therefore putting it online would likely get a person sued (or at least have a DMCA takedown notice issued - which would need to be followed if the recipient didn't want to be sued). Excerpts (like a copy of the appendix) can be shared under fair-use laws though.If the appendix is available on line. Where is the book?
What am I defending? You asked for the source. I provided it. Everything else has been you attacking me for that.If you didn’t post the link why are you defending it?
Again, not sure what you expect. It's a book. It's protected by copyright. If it was available for free online, I'd link it. But it's not, and I'm not buying you a copy. You're gonna have to do some legwork on this one - that's the nature of print media.I’m one of those inconvenient people who wants proof.
There is also the probability the pdf isn’t from his book or anything he has written.The linked pdf was probably posted under fair-use copywriter exceptions. Posting the whole book would probably be frowned upon.
CNN describes his book as having such a list as an appendix:There is also the probability the pdf isn’t from his book or anything he has written.
Without proof, we can’t take it as fact.
It was brought up in his confirmation hearing. He didn't deny that he wrote it, just insisted that it was being taken out of context.There is also the probability the pdf isn’t from his book or anything he has written.

Good job - thanksCNN describes his book as having such a list as an appendix:
The Amazon listing has the Table of Contents, which shows an appendix of the same name:
NYT op-ed about the list and Patel's discussion of the list during his confirmation hearing:

Patel Denies His List of 60 Names Is an ‘Enemies List’
The list has generated unease inside the bureau given the mass firings at the Justice Department in recent days.www.nytimes.com

How is exposing corruption bad?A book titled "Government Gangsters," which details claims of corruption and bureaucrats plotting to overthrow the government. The list we're discussing is provided at the end as specific people who the author claims are involved.
It isn't. The problem is that Patel did not expose any corruption in his book - he merely claims to have done so. The book is a litany of complaints about liberals interspersed with insinuations of corrupt acts without any actual facts to back them up.How is exposing corruption bad?
