Publisher's summary

Beyond traditional threats from states such as China and Russia and non-state actors employing violent extremism, can America's politics and political system withstand the assaults of the Fifth Horseman and the new MAD, massive attacks of disruption? The COVID-19 pandemic, the January 6 insurrection and takeover of the US Capitol, SolarWinds cyberattacks, the Texas storms that cut power, and the blocking of the Suez Canal are harbingers of the new MAD. And the nation is unaware and unprepared to deal with them.

What must be done? First, we must recognize the potentially existential dangers posed by MAD. Second, we must reorganize government to meet these dangers. Third, we need new national security strategies to protect, defend, and mitigate these new threats. Fourth, we must create a private-public partnership in a national reinvestment fund that can redress many of the risks of MAD.

In this transformative, provocative, and highly innovative book, Dr. Harlan Ullman issues a dramatic warning about so far unrecognized existential dangers to the nation and offers a plan of action America must take if the Fifth Horseman and the new MAD are to be tamed or broken.

Seem like a very biased book

In all the things that he went over with the past presidency of trump it seems there was nothing ever done correctly by the Trump administration. Although the Trump administration had set up the distribution plan for the antivirus before the change over, he gave all credit to the Biden administration.

He states that many drugs that helped many including myself, were not effective. and lies from President Trump. There wasn't any election fraud and it's all just a lie. beginning to think he is a left wing extremist.
The longer I listened to this book the more I realized he was another anti trumper and had trump derangement syndrome. I was hoping for a more honest book

Don't shoot he messenger!

Don't shoot the messenger! The Fifth Horseman is the most important book of the year. Dr. Ullman not only points out the existing problems with our government and its policies but the future problems as well. He also proposes solutions that we should be working on now. It is a completely apolitical book that properly skewers all parties. If we can't achieve positive government by reason instead of failed government by inaction, we are all doomed to perish with the foolish masses and the evil manipulators that mislead them to their destruction for their own selfish egos. Please buy and read and implement.
