Two weeks after the 2016 presidential election, Amy Siskind started "The Weekly List," a blog detailing actions taken by the Trump administration that posed a threat to democratic norms. The list went viral and now has more than half a million viewers every week. Siskind is president and co-founder of The New Agenda, an organization advocating for economic independence and equal gender representation. Now she has complied her popular blog into the book: The List: A Week-by-Week Reckoning of Trump’s First Year.
