Fox News books scored its third New York Times best-seller this week with All American Christmas. The book is co-authored by Fox News’ Rachel Campos-Duffy and her husband, former congressman and reality TV star, Sean Duffy. It has sold over 200,000 copies since its release in mid-November. The book has been on the hardcover nonfiction best-seller list for four weeks and knocked The 1619 Project – edited by Nikole Hannah-Jones – out of the top spot. Dave Grohl’s memoir The Storyteller is currently in second place, with The 1619 Project down to third. All American Christmas is billed as featuring

Who is buying and then reading "The 1619 Project", one of the largest pieces of drivel ever written?

I believe Rachel was on the first Real World reality show set in San Francisco. She was a huge fan of Jack Kemp. It was the only Real World show I watched.

I suspect that unions and far left groups buy these and give away or store in warehouses.

The 1619 project is a collection of lies, frauds and misrepresentations.

I’m glad a wholesome book like the Duffy’s has done well but they are embarrassing. They are too sickeningly sweet and, like the Doublemint twins, I can easily imagine them riding a tandem bike, wearing matching outfits and singing “Just That Kinda Day.” Already a TV personality, Sean Duffy was 28 on 9/11 but decided to serve in the House rather than the military at a time when many of his peers risked it all for this country. When he sits next to men like Johnny Joey Jones or Pete Hegseth or Dan Bongino he looks so small. And yet here he and his perky wife are, suddenly up front and center all over Fox AND with the obligatory Fox on-air talent book which isn’t even ghost written but merely transcribed stories told by other people. It’s too formulaic and they are banal.

The Bible will always be my #1 best seller. Never heard of this husband-wife duo, nor do I care what they are peddling.

My bet, schools are purchasing the 1619 project trash to fill their libraries. Our new REPUBLICAN school board is going through the all the district libraries.

“1619” remains #1 in the “Hate, Excuse-making, and Shakedown” category.

Personally, I find the Duffy's refreshing. Cute couple with a ton of kids, they are successful because they work hard and make good decisions. Their book is about people and their Christmas family traditions. I can't see how someone can criticize that.

That's the first thing I thought #1. Who the in hell is buying the 1619 book, and why? I think it's all BS. No book on 1619 was ever in the top ten of reading material.

Hooray for school boards mentioned in #8. Amazon doesn't like to admit that authors associated with the Daily Wire are selling in the top spots. Amazon even de-platformed the little cardboard book ''Johnny the Walrus'' by Matt Walsh. Shapiro, Klavan and Owens are also huge best-sellers.

If you read the 1619 Project stuff or any CRT material in general you are immediately struck by one thing:
It is incredibly poorly written. It reflects a paltry vocabulary, an inability to express a coherent thought and no trace of narrative or cause-and-effect.
Propaganda, whatever its many other faults, is often slick, tested, focused, direct. CRT/1619 is none of these. Instead, CRT/1619 sounds like a term paper from a college sophomore who showed up to about half the classes at the beginning of the semester, skimmed a couple of chapters of the text and thought she'd try her hand at this academia thing.

Are we sure Obie and his mentor Frank Marshall Davis didn't write the 1619 Project book?

Somebody at the Salvation Army must have read 1619 Project and believed that fiction.
I never heard of this couple before because books fly out written by ghost authors to make money think of the low IQ dumbo Obama.

#10, you’re probably right. I am being grouchy. But they just rub me the wrong way. As long as I’m replying to #10, I’ll make a confession: it isn’t cool but I do check my posts after I’ve posted them. Come on, admit it - some of you do, too.

I think the lefties are not making any progress with their undoing of American history...there are enough of US out here who know the real story and WE pass it to our children and grandchildren...Americans are a very special bred of citizens...WE are strong and tenacious...control is only possible when the electorate give in to the narrative...and WE certainly are not....

It's amazing how the Democrats, with straight faces, want to "hold America accountable" for 1619, but don't ever talk about the Democrats' culpability in 1862 (the President of the Confederacy was a Democrat), and 1896 (Plessy v. Ferguson separate but equal brought to you by the same southern Democrats). It's like the Nazi Party trying to tell post-war Germany that they're a new and improved Nazi Party that fired all the "bad" Nazis.

God bless the Duffys. How can anyone criticize a traditional American family? God, Faith, Family is the bedrock of this nation. Our Nation was born with these desires. One Nation under God with Life, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Christmas is next Saturday and the One who gave us that freedom to pursue was Born in a Stable.
Let us Thank God for that Freedom and fight as our forefathers have done to keep it.

We have a used book store here in town and there are four copies of The 1619 Project there already. Now, when and only when the price comes down to, oh, $.25 would I consider buying it. Amazon doesn't even publish a "take a look inside" option for it ... like they do for 95% of all the books they sell. Yes, institutionalized sales gobbledegook!
