By CC News Network | James Seidel
The Explosive Tell-All Book That is Captivating America
Josh Pruitt’s Trumped Up: From Rags to Redemption in Trump’s America, co-authored with investigative journalist James Seidel, has officially skyrocketed to #1 New Release in Amazon’s U.S. Presidents category. The book’s instant success signals a nationwide demand for an unfiltered account of political persecution, redemption, and the power of unwavering belief in the MAGA movement.
Teaming up with Seidel, the founder of CC News Network, Pruitt delivers a deeply personal and politically charged narrative. His story takes readers from a childhood of hardship to the chaos of January 6, 2021, where he became a central figure in one of the most controversial moments in modern U.S. history. Arrested, imprisoned, and vilified by the media, Pruitt’s life took a stunning turn in 2025, when President Donald J. Trump issued a full pardon, clearing his name and reigniting his faith in the American dream.
A Book the Mainstream Media Won’t Touch
Unlike the carefully curated narratives of mainstream outlets, Trumped Up pulls no punches. Readers will find an insider’s perspective on:
✔️ The hardships that shaped Pruitt’s life and his path into the MAGA movement
✔️ The truth behind January 6th—what really happened and how Pruitt found himself at the center of it all
✔️ The political persecution faced by January 6 detainees in a justice system designed to silence dissent
✔️ The brutal reality of prison and how he survived years behind bars
✔️ How Trump’s presidential pardon in 2025 became a turning point for redemption
Pruitt’s story is one of struggle, survival, and a second chance granted by a president who never forgot his supporters. This book isn’t just about one man’s journey—it’s a battle cry for every American who has felt betrayed, cast aside, and silenced.

James Seidel: The Media Powerhouse Behind the Truth
The book’s success is also a testament to James Seidel, a media mogul, investigative journalist, bestselling author, and founder of Crime and Cask News and CC News Network. Seidel’s reputation for breaking major stories and challenging mainstream narratives has made him one of the most influential voices in independent media today.
Seidel’s previous work, including his bestselling book Defending Alex Murdaugh, has cemented him as a force in investigative journalism. With a massive following of over 100,000 on TikTok and a presence across major news platforms, Seidel is redefining modern media by exposing what others refuse to report.
His collaboration with Pruitt ensures that Trumped Up is not just another political memoir—it’s a meticulously researched and fact-driven account that dares to tell the truth.
A Movement, Not Just a Book
The book’s #1 ranking in Amazon’s U.S. Presidents category is proof that Americans are hungry for alternative perspectives, real journalism, and voices that challenge the establishment. While critics scramble to discredit its message, the book’s soaring sales and growing movement prove that the truth can’t be silenced.
