Villainy: American Style

Between the two of them, Shakespeare and Dickens probably created more villains than any two writers in history. But at the rate we’re churning them out in America, they could only look on in amazement.

Between the two of them, Shakespeare and Dickens probably created more villains than any two writers in history. But at the rate we’re churning them out in America, they could only look on in amazement.

I mean, no sooner do you have the likes of Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, Ted Wheeler, Andrew Cuomo, Jerry Nadler, James Comey, Gavin Newsom, Bill di Blasio, Mazie Hirono, John Brennan, James Clapper, Jussie Smollett, Adam Schiff and George Soros, neatly filed away in your catalogue of swamp creatures than you get hit with the likes of Anthony Fauci, Jenny Durkan, Breonna Taylor and Michael Novogratz.

You might not think that Ms. Taylor, who was killed by the police in Lexington, Kentucky, belongs on such a list. But the reason for that might be that you believed the six month campaign to portray her as a wonderful person who worked as an EMT.

The truth is, she had been an EMT but was fired in 2017. In recent years, she had joined her boyfriend in the drug business. There was a warrant out for her and not just her boyfriend when the cops showed up at her apartment. What’s more, she wasn’t asleep in her bed when she was shot. She was awake which meant that, like her boyfriend, she refused to open the door to the cops when they knocked and identified herself. And once her friend opened fire on the cops, it shouldn’t have been a big surprise that she was killed in the crossfire. It’s not like she was one of those babies or little kids who are the innocent victims when the drug-dealing punks start squabbling over turf. She was one of those drug-dealing punks.

I’m wondering if the city of Lexington can make her mother refund at least a portion of the $12 million they paid out when it appeared that Ms. Taylor was a combination of Mother Teresa and Joan of Arc.

You might also wonder why someone named Michael Novogratz, a man you’ve probably never heard of, is on the list.

Until he was identified by Tucker Carlson, I, too, had never heard of him. He is yet another billionaire who realizes that, at 90, George Soros can’t destroy the nation all by himself.

Therefore, he has dedicated millions of dollars to something called The Bail Project. It is what it says it is. Its sole mission is to pay the bail so that felons can be kept out of prison.

Over the past few years, it has bailed out over 12,000 criminals, including men who have used their freedom to finish up the job of killing their wives and girlfriends.

Of all the oddities on the agenda of the wealthy seditionists who are financing the burning and looting of America, perhaps the weirdest is the desire to keep killers, rapists and thieves, out of prison.

In the case of Soros, he concentrates on electing district attorneys who don’t wish to arrest criminals. Novogratz’s mission is to get those who are arrested out of jail as quickly as possible.


After a Canadian woman was arrested for mailing a lethal dose of ricin to the White House in an attempt to kill President Trump, a few people including Dan Parker let me know they were worried that the Democrats will make a more concerted effort to murder him in the weeks leading up to the election.

I confessed that I’ve been surprised there haven’t been more attempts, considering the way the man has been portrayed by the media and his political enemies. I mean, if you keep insisting a man is a despot, a devil, a Nazi and a racist, it’s easy to imagine that some of the easily manipulated pinheads on the Left would regard it as a holy mission, akin to assassinating Hitler, to rid the world of him.

Every day that I wake up and Donald Trump is still alive, I thank God that the Secret Service is not the FBI.


I discovered that the same diligence that prevented the toxic letter from the Canadian loon from reaching President Trump also prevented my donation to his re-election campaign from reaching him. After a month, I checked with my bank and it hadn’t been cashed, so I put a stop on it.


An acquaintance passed along a poll that allegedly ranked the top universities in the U.S. For some reason he wanted me to know that he had attended #20 (UCLA) and #26 (UVA).

Frankly, I was at a loss. For one thing, I couldn’t quite tell if he was bragging or complaining. The numbers, after all, weren’t that impressive. So I asked him. He replied that he merely thought I’d be interested in the poll. I pointed out that if that had been his intention, he would have simply passed it along without mentioning where his schools ranked.

I didn’t bother clicking to find out what the poll had to say. For one thing, such a poll is just as silly as those that rate cities or movies. Everyone has his own personal criteria, and why would I care what a group of strangers thought about something. Some people desire a change of seasons, some don’t. Some people love westerns, some don’t. Some people think it’s a big deal to attend Harvard or Yale or the University of Virginia, some people don’t.

But a ranking of colleges and universities strikes me as particularly absurd when you realize that racial diversity is now regarded as the highest ideal in the indoctrination camps that profess to be institutions of higher learning.


I believe that when it comes to all the important issues affecting Americans, President Trump’s instincts couldn’t be better. It’s only been for his instincts when it comes to individuals that he can be faulted.

For instance, why on earth did he wait so many months before getting rid of James Comey? What made him think that Rex Tillerson, who’d played a major role in ruining the Boy Scouts, would make a good Secretary of State? Why would he pull Jeff Sessions out of the Senate, where he could have been counted upon to be a loyal supporter of his agenda, and place him in charge of the Justice Department?

If ever a man was born to be either the director of the FBI or the Attorney General, it was Rudy Giuliani.

I think the disappearance of Giuliani from the scene is one of the great mysteries of the age. For one thing, Rudy had supported Trump’s candidacy. For another, Trump had had a front row seat to the miraculous way in which Mayor Giuliani had improved New York City. Why the President chose to give jobs to Jeff Sessions, William Barr and Christopher Wray, that his goombah was born to have is so inexplicable, it’s almost as if Trump simply hadn’t thought of it at the time. Sort of the way you might come home from the supermarket with milk because you had forgotten to write it down on the list.


Although it was pretty much overlooked with so much attention focused on the death of Mrs. Ginsburg and the opening of a seat on the Court, President Trump should be applauded for labeling the KKK and Antifa as terrorist groups.

I am hoping that will open the door to indicting those, like George Soros, who finance Antifa for the crime of sedition.

But first we need an attorney general like Rudy Giuliani with the cojones to take on a billionaire who has half of Congress on speed-dial.


When I see the rabble on the streets of America, looting and burning and chanting their insipid mantras, I’m reminded of those zombie movies that show the doomed souls stumbling along in their rags searching for their favorite source of zombie protein.

And there is the one big difference. The zombies in the movies are always on the hunt for brains, something that the living dead who make up Antifa and BLM seem quite content to do without.
