For 20 years, Vladimir Putin has been at the top of a power structure typical of corrupt autocracies. He got there and stayed there by twisting and warping himself and the people around him so everything can be smash-fit into his own fucked up fantasy of reconstituting the Russian empire - or whatever it is that drives his ambitions.
A coupla pieces from MSNBC that help illustrate what's happening, which could indicate that Mr Putin's dream is nearly at an end.
(paraphrasing) "Eventually his advisers will bring knives instead of news"
