The four horsemen: They're all going down.



These are vicious, manipulative, privileged, power-hungry old men, the very worst in society.

And there are a lot of wild cards in this deck in a volatile and unpredictable situation. One or more of them is extremely unstable, complicating matters. As gloomy as this seems, I believe that it's partly or even mostly due to a major positive disturbance in "the force".

Key to this is Trump's incalculable debt to Putin. He is now playing both Putin's friend and the enemy of his client state, Iran.
Worse, he's trying to tailgate on Netanyahu's war, pretty obviously not cleared in advance by him.

Putin holds the blackmail on him, and the ante may be going up as things worsen for Putin. It's not a "pee" tape. It may be another "P"



"Playing both sides of an issue" may work with morons in the U.S. but not with savage dictators.

Forgives as in "forgives debt"

The light that turned on.
The No Kings was the largest rally in US history and will grow in significance. It is the breakthrough of light.
With the unleashing of good, I look forward to all the four horsemen failing.
People don't see the forest for the trees. There are plenty of trees, on purpose, and they are all burning. On purpose.

Any one of these could go down any minute. I speculated earlier that Ukraine could hit Putin, not just one of his body doubles,



Liberating three nations at once, since Trump would go down with Putin, "tapes" or not, or perhaps Putin is tired of his plaything, especially with his duplicity, and spill the beans, dealing a blow to Trump and especially, to his pal Netanyahu.

There is no honorable or peaceful solution with these aged, deranged tyrants.
We can make that light shine brighter. and bring about peaceful change here.

The truth may take time to set people free, but let's keep at it.

Especially the contradictions in Brainless Leader's constant lies and waffling.
OrlandoDem2 posted a notable OP suggesting how to divide Maga.
Hate unites them. Hate can divide them.
(when the lies are made clear on the wide screen, not just the antisocial media phone screen)
The opportunity is there to foment civil war within MAGA.

Some more in the thread.

About that light.
The world is on the brink of nuclear destruction. Some seek it as an apocalypse, mysteriously rewarding their crimes on earth (1).
Long story short, we now have four Bond villains at war with each other, their own countries and the world.
And there are others.

The crystallization of evil into these four figures shines a light on the solution.
Many of us hoped, watching shows like "The Untouchables", that gangsters would just kill each other off, but it didn't happen that way. The Saint Valentine's Day Massacre reverberates this year as gangsters disguised as cops wreak havoc.

The definition of apocalypse is (from Wikipedia)
Apocalypse (from Ancient Greek (Many Greek characters do not render on DU) (apokálupsis) ' revelation, disclosure ')

As we reveal, witness, disclose, and perhaps as Putin discloses the vile acts of "Vulgar The Flatulent" their sick dreams fall apart.

Like this one: (SLIGHTLY edited)


His plan has been clear for some time.

Chaos is his need and his wish but ...
Be careful what you wish for.
You might get it.



(1) racism, misogyny, nationalism, intolerance, unearned "privilege" and hoarding of wealth.
These zero-sum "games" form an endless cycle of suffering and revenge.
There is no winner, only greater and lesser losers.
