Called "a cross between Michael Moore and South Park," gonzo journalist Harmon Leon shared his undercover exploits among fringe right-wingers in the riotously funny bookRepublican Like Me. Now, in The Infiltrator, Harmon exposes more of the harrowing and hilarious reality of living in red-state America.

Desperate for a job in the no-new-job Republican economy, Harmon becomes OJ Simpson's sidekick helping him to pull off hidden-camera tricks on OJ's budding reality show.

Harmon joins a civilian vigilante group of senior citizens called the Minuteman Project and helps them "patrol for illegal aliens" along the Mexican border by sitting in a lawn chair.

He becomes a Promise Keeper at one of the group's weekend stadium events, where he "gets pumped up about Jesus" but finds that women are clearly not welcome.

Harmon infiltrates the Protest Warriors (who vehemently oppose liberal protestors) and meets a right-wing Warrior who boastfully confides to Harmon that he's infiltrated leftist protests. Harmon rises to become president of the local chapter.

Harmon shows his flair for drama when he trains to be a teen abstinence educator and makes an unforgettable impression using mime.

At a faith healing extravaganza, Harmon throws away his crutches and walks again-before being "assisted" to the ground.

And there's much, much more in this twisted sampler of "infiltration journalism." Follow Harmon on each mission impossible as he dons various ingenious disguises, goes undercover, tries various ways to eke out a living, and then just barely escapes to report on the shocking and very funny truth about surviving in conservative America.
Industry Reviews
""You cannot but be amazed by the sheer guts of Harmon Leon. This book is great!" Carol Kolb, former editor-in-chief of The Onion "It's pretty miraculous that Harmon is still alive after writing this book. He's got balls - big, red, white, and blue balls. Long may they wave." Beth Lisick, author of Everybody Into the Pool
