Rick Stiller’s five-volume fictional series paints a vivid yet daunting picture of a very real conspiracy that is about to devour our society and dismantle our democracy, by revealing the primal essence of today’s sinister powers:
White supremacy, fake-Christian extremism, and Trump's fascist MAGA Party bent on seizing power for the few at the expense of rest of us.
The disparity between haves and have-nots where American families struggle and CEO's receive $46 billion dollar compensations.
Right-wing factions bent on foisting an unqualified fraud, convicted felon, and adjudicated rapist into the presidency again
The plan by the wealthiest few to eliminate every right and benefit passed into law since 1860.
Each volume in Rick's fiction predicted every step in the very real radical crusade. Beginning with Nellis Gray, that threat is opposed by a small protest that blossoms into a national movement to save our democracy, manned by a cast of passionate characters bent on exposing the sinister political and quasi-religious forces that thrive on promoting conflict and violence within our society.

Because each volume forecasted coming events and reveals the motivation and the methods of the extremists trying to dismantle the government and eradicate the middle class, Stiller’s fiction poses one simple but fitting question for the reader:
Why did American voters choose an autocratic dictator
as our next president?
If Nellis Gray, the main character of Rick’s first book, were a real person… he’d be plotting a bold scheme to motivate every voter in the country to stand up for the core beliefs this nation must defend and singing one of his anthems…
“Dare to dream of what might be - When compassion and liberty - Replace the shadows and misery - With the promise of renewed humanity”
Readers love Nellis Gray because he’s the grandpa, father, son, brother or friend we all wish we had. Yeah, he’s eccentric and opinionated, a fearless defender of all that's right and true, but he’ll be the first to give you a hug and put his own life at risk if he sees that yours is in danger.
In fact, he has a special message for you (Sure, he’s fictional… but he has the vision of a wise old owl, so just go along with this if you can);
“Hey friends! Nellis Gray here…
I know we all see the tyrants’ campaign to deconstruct the government through a media blitz of corruption, lies, and deceit that’s made millions wonder whether there's a future for our democracy. Whether there’s anything that can be done to save it?
I hear too many people saying:
I’ve turned a blind eye to it all… but that didn’t solve anything.
We’re bombarded with negative, hateful, and completely false propaganda every day and people are so exhausted by it, they accept the lies as truth.
I hoped the problem would solve itself and everything would be sorted out, until the election made it worse.
Or, I hoped that turning off the evening news or ignoring the newspaper headlines about Trump and Project 2025's detailed plan to dismantle our democracy, and the lies his legions of crazy politicians are spewing every day would make it all go away.
But if that’s all we do… then we’re just hiding our heads in the sand… and, as you'll learn in my story, I’m not one to sit around waiting for someone else to solve our problems.
So, instead of cringing about politics, biased laws, and intolerant doctrines…
What if we really came together as empowered human beings to build a coalition to defend our democracy through meaningful dialogue and honest, factual discussions…
No matter our former beliefs or positions on the political spectrum?
After all, we have this in common.
We’re all human and we’re all Americans.
And if we can see that patriotic ‘humanity’ in each other, then perhaps we can put aside our differences to unite Democrats, former Republicans, and Independents to stand together against the onslaught of Trump's dangerous policies that will take us back to 1860.
Maybe we can be reunited as inspired Americans by joining together to take down the entire extremist MAGA conspiracy from your school board to the presidency, so our grandchildren have the opportunity to grow up to be thoughtful and compassionate human beings.
If we stand together for righteousness and honesty, perhaps we can build a national movement to demonstrate our commitment to the simple concept that all people matter, all our citizens have the same rights to secure great jobs, making our own personal choices, and feeling safe raising our kids in the warm embrace of real freedom.
Maybe we can build a society where everyone will experience life driven by the passion, joy, and acceptance that is the basis for the American dream, rather than the hate, vilification, denigration, and vengeance outlined in Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation's battle plan for Trump's administration.
We must maintain those real expectations to fulfill our most basic needs and allow us to hope that our experiment in real democracy might continue.
Of course, those are things we already enjoy, rights we are about to lose.
But none of that is going to happen unless real patriots join together to demand a return to a democracy of, by, and for all of our citizens, not just the wealthiest few white supremacists who want to dominate everyone else.
It’s not going to happen until corporate money and PAC advertising is banned from politics.
It’s not going to happen until we demand truth based on verifiable facts as the basis for our national conversation, and ban the hypocrisy, lies, bigotry, and hate being spewed by fascist "MAGA" media networks.
It’s not going to happen until radical religious factions stop trying to force their belief systems on the rest of us. Women have the right to decide what to do with their own bodies, gay people have the right to choose who they love, racial minorities have the right to the same privileges as everyone else…and we all have the right to breathe clean air, drink untainted water, and preserve a healthy planet for future generations.
It’s not going to happen until the real majority rescinds the Billionaires’ manipulations of shady laws inhibiting actual election “integrity” to re-establish bi-partisan oversight of our polling places, the vote count, and reporting procedures.
It’s not going to happen until all of us – right, left, Black, White, Latino, Asian, LGBTQ, rich and poor, urban and rural establish a national movement to stop the coup progressing before our eyes. My fictional characters named it the All People Matter movement, and we should join together to demonstrate our commitment to the American dream while there is still hope for our future.
Things are out of control, so let’s unite to take back the power to save our nation from disaster!
Join me and let’s take charge by creating a bold uncompromising roadmap for the defense of our democracy.
It won’t happen overnight, but with the recent election results, there's no time to waste.
See you inside!
Your friend,
Nellis Gray
