The Story of How Russia Becomes a Democracy after Losing to Ukraine. Opposing Putin is a risky proposition; for instance, a fellow Russian Parliament member turned dissident, Denis Voronenkov, was on his way to see Ponomarev when he was shot and killed in March 2017 by Russian intelligence. &nbsp; Ponomarev has lived in Kyiv since 2016. As a result of Voronenkov's murder, he now receives personal protection by the Ukrainian Security Service. And as he said in a recent television interview, "I keep a machine gun by the door." &nbsp; But if you ask Ponomarev why he joined Ukraine's armed territorial defense forces, he will reply: &nbsp; "I'm not fighting against Russia, I'm fighting against Putin and Putinism and Russian fascism." &nbsp; In this book, Ponomarev offers his plan for how the Russian people can purge their country of Putin, Putinism, and dictatorship, and turn it into a democracy.

Most Americans believe that in the past our presidents were smarter, more honest, and behaved more like gentlemen than those we elect today. "Long before Watergate, Contragate, Travelgate, Nannygate, and Monicagate, our presidents were lying, cheating, stealing, and womanizing." White House: Confidential authors Gregg Stebben and Austin Hill. White House: Confidential is a clear-eyed look at America's long line of presidents, warts and all. Focusing on the qualities that never made it into the press releases, the authors look at the strange family relationships, scandals that engulfed their administrations, fights with enemies, and questionable money matters. The first controversial edition of White House: Confidential featured: <ul>
<li>A "presidential score card" of which presidents cheated on their wives (and with whom)</li> <li>Random acts of goofy presidential behavior</li> <li>Their frequently accurate predictions of their own demise</li> <li>Their comments on leaving office</li> <li>How they died</li> <li>Presidential firsts</li> <li>And the role of vice presidents </li> </ul>
Two new chapters have been added in this revised and updated edition: <ul>
<li>"Impeached!" looks at how impeachment and the threat of impeachment have affected several presidents.</li> <li>"Nepotism! A Family Affair!" shows how presidential relatives have exploited their connections. Yet others have used a relative's presidency as a springboard to their own. </li> </ul>
PRAISE FOR WHITE HOUSE: CONFIDENTIAL: "The authors are superbly gifted, almost facile writers; one might describe them as the Cheech and Chong of presidential history." Bob Cheeks, IntellectualConservative.com "Although it's far from a textbook, its anecdotes and analysis make for an entertaining afternoon." Kyle Tonniges, The Reader

Now all this information, and less "manly" but no less essential tips, can be found in one place. The only book a man needs to lead a well-rounded life, The Man's Manual provides instruction on "inspirational sex," urban tenting, what to do to with your thumb after you whack it with a hammer, and much, much more. Here are succinct, step-by-step directions for impersonating a smart person, and landing an airplane safely. Learn to tie a bowtie, fight cancer (consume green tea and tomatoes, but not necessarily at the same time), and organize a poker game. Determine how exactly to become a sex object, how to talk lingerie, and how to make love like a pro. There is material on baking brownies, cooking geese, and even hunting down your own venison. The sheer amount of information contained in this friendly, accessible book will enchant even the most discriminating reader.
