26 Villains For '26
To honor the nation's looming Semiquincentennial, here are some of the worst people in America, ranked by how much harm they've done and/or are poised to do to the people of this country and the world
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, the Trump Redux began.
That’s not true, of course. It wasn’t a long time ago. Somehow, only 365 days have elapsed since Donald Trump—safe and warm inside the Capitol rotunda; insulated from the angry protestors who would otherwise have shown up to give the Queens boy the Bronx cheer; surrounded by the contemptible oligarchs who installed him; beside his wax-museum wife, in a hat she borrowed from Jim Carrey in The Mask; and with his freakishly tall son Barron, his hair slicked back like Michael Douglas in Wall Street, hovering Lurch-like behind him—placed his petite little fingers on Lincoln’s Bible and took the oath of office for the second, non-consecutive time.
The whole thing felt slapdash, like an inaugural parody. Like, Brett Kavanaugh administered the oath of office to JD Vance that day. That can’t be real. That’s something out of a Naked Gun movie. There’s no way the American people would stand for Boof swearing in Couchfucker, right? Right?
Guys, forgive me, I messed something up. On this day one year ago, Trump actually forgot to place, or intentionally chose not to place, his Happy Meal-sized hand on the two Bibles held there by the incoming First Lady. Oops! My bad! One of those Bibles belonged to Abraham Lincoln; the other was a family Bible (?!) given to him by his mother (?!?!), or so the story goes. Personally, I think it was a fancily-bound volume of Hitler’s speeches.
Speaking of speeches: Trump’s Second Inaugural Address began with a rapid-fire series of egregious lies—or, more accurately, a series of boastful vows that he would spend the next year actively and intentionally undermining. Contextually, the speech is one long, boring troll.
After thanking some of the esteemed dignitaries in attendance—and also thanking Vance, Mike Johnson, and John Roberts—Donald declared that “the golden age of America begins right now.”
After each of the following short paragraphs, the official transcript says, and I kid you not, “(Applause.)” I’m not sure if this word actually appeared on the teleprompter, as a reminder for the dipshit Dotard to wait for applause, or if the purpose is to inform future readers that yes, people actually clapped for this fork-tongued orangutan.
“From this day forward,” Trump continued, lying through his false teeth, “our country will flourish and be respected again all over the world. We will be the envy of every nation, and we will not allow ourselves to be taken advantage of any longer. During every single day of the Trump administration, I will, very simply, put America first.”
And then:
Our sovereignty will be reclaimed. Our safety will be restored. The scales of justice will be rebalanced. The vicious, violent, and unfair weaponization of the Justice Department and our government will end.
And then:
And our top priority will be to create a nation that is proud, prosperous, and free.
And then:
America will soon be greater, stronger, and far more exceptional than ever before.
Needless to say, none of this has come to pass.
What actually happened, over the past year, is that America became lesser, weaker, and far more mediocre than ever before— full of shame, less prosperous, more repressive. Our sovereignty was outsourced to China and Russia. Between ICE at home and Rubio/Hegseth abroad, our safety is in constant jeopardy. The scales of Justice have been torn off the statue and shoved up its ass; that mendacious speech operated as a starting pistol for the vicious, violent, and unfair weaponization of the Justice Department and our government.
From that day forward, our country atrophied and became the laughingstock of the world. No longer the envy of any nation, we now allow ourselves to be taken advantage of on the regular. During every single day of the Trump administration, Donald, very simply, put himself first, his family second, the Kremlin third, his cronies fourth. America is so far down his list of priorities, it may as well be one of the countless redactions of his name in the Epstein files.
One year ago today, the golden age of America ground to a halt. The only thing golden left in America is the tacky gilt filagree in the Oval Office—that and the showers he and his wife watched in the Ritz-Carlton Moscow.
(Applause.)
(Applause.)
(Applause.)
(Applause.)
Shit, man. I can’t believe it’s only the first anniversary of the second inaugural. For those of us Americans born after the end of the Second World War, 2025 was the longest year of our collective lives—and we just lived through a legit pandemic! The Year Without a Summer was a warm, sunshiny day at the beach compared to what we just endured.
So there’s no better day to present the fourth annual PREVAIL “Villains” list—often imitated, never surpassed.
The good news is that the MAGA Gestapo did not bar me from compiling my 2026 list, as I openly feared last year. The bad news is, even with his brain and his body deteriorating in real time before our eyes, Donald Trump is stronger than ever—and our best hope for his ouster is the ghost of the most notorious child sex trafficker in recent memory.
Our nation celebrates its 250th birthday on July 4th. Will our democracy survive for six more months? Will Donald? The Midterms are scheduled for November. Will we make it that long? Will the elections be fair? Will there be elections?
When is White Lotus coming back?
“Twenty twenty-four’s gonna be a doozy,” I wrote two Januarys ago, as we were, I noted back then, “waiting for four different Trump trials to kick off.” (Only one of them actually did; what were the chances?) Alas, I seem to have underestimated the level of dooziness 2024 had in store for us. It was the mother of all doozies, a doozy Mount McKinley.
And yet on the doozification scale, the last year of the Biden presidency was dwarfed by the first year of the Trump Redux, as surely as a LIV golf ball is dwarfed by the planet Jupiter.
I guess what I’m trying to say is, you can look at the lists from 2023, 2024, and 2025 as “Doozy,” “Doozier,” and “Dooziest.”
For 2026, no superlatives remain.
Before we begin, a few notes on my methodology: While there are plenty of worthy foreign nationals who are as evil as they come—Vladimir the Puny for one, and Bibi the Butcher; who has bought more death and destruction than those two serial war criminals?—I’ve confined myself to U.S. residents. Also, I’d like to apologize for the lack of diversity. Incredibly, the list of horrible Americans is populated in the main by white men—although, I’m pleased to report, there are more women this year! And MAGA will be heartened to know that these are not just DEI inclusions!
While the order is subjective, I tried to rank these miscreants according to how awful they are. For that, my primary metric is body count: how many people have suffered and/or died, or will suffer and/or die, because of their actions.
Finally, this is hardly an exhaustive list, nor is it meant to be. Regrettably, there are scores of wretched Americans I have passed over. Please excuse the many other worthy (or rather unworthy) candidates I missed, and feel free to suggest omissions in the comments.
And now, on to the List…
Falling off
Pour one out for the pieces of shit not quite wretched enough to make the cut this year: the NRx thought leaders, so-called; NATO ambassador Matt Whitaker; the Texas trio of Greg Abbott, Dan Patrick, and Ken Paxton; and the Pipe Bomber, whose identity is still a mystery, despite Kash Patel’s braggadocious arrest of a suspect.
Speaking of which. . .
Dishonorable Mention
Kash Patel: The hapless little man in the ladies’ FBI jacket is an atrocity for sure, but he’s been too busy flying to UFC events on the Bureau’s private jet and gushing about his “girlfriend” on Stephen Miller’s wife’s Elon Musk’s “personal assistant”’s podcast to do as much damage as I’d feared.
Susie Wiles: The Vanity Fair article was her giving notice, right?
Mike Johnson: I have come to the conclusion that “Mike Johnson” is AI-generated slop, and therefore ineligible for consideration, despite being the nation’s foremost champion of child sex trafficking, POTUS excepted.
Speaking of AI. . .
26. Sam Altman
—2025 rank: unranked
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
We’ve spent the last calendar year having AI shoved down our collective throats: Grok, Gemini, Copilot, Rufus, Apple Intelligence, and the grand-daddy of them all, ChatGPT, which is actively destroying the ability of our young people to write. The last is the brainchild of Altman, the avatar of creepy dystopian AI. I’ve never trusted him, but ever since the Scarlett Johansson brouhaha—where he asked her for permission to use her voice, and she said no, and then he did it anyway—I’m just waiting for the real Sam Altman to please stand up. The dude feels like an AI-generated villain in the world’s least interesting sci-fi movie.
25. Jes Staley
—2025 rank: unranked
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
Staley’s is hardly a household name, and yet without him—and JPMorgan Chase, his former employers—the Epstein child sex trafficking network arguably wouldn’t have lasted as long as it did, or operated at so great a scale.
24. Karoline Leavitt
—2025 rank: unranked
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
Is it ok to use the c-word if I spell it with a k?
I move to rechristen her “Karoline Shovitt.” As in, “Take this lie and shove it.”
23. Bari Weiss, Jeff Bezos & Patrick Soon-Shiong (tie)
—2025 rank: 15
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
I am using voice to text to write this, because of a pinched nerve that causes sharp pain in my left arm—for me, 2026 is literally a pain in the neck!—and the Notes app, ostensibly unaware of the irony, has rendered “Bari Weiss” as “Very Wise.”
Nothing could be further from the truth. Weiss is a rank propagandist for the Nazi regime. Her takeover of CBS News—undermining 60 Minutes and installing that Tony Pupusomething guy as lead anchor (whose first move in that job was to rip off the concept of The Five 8)—signals a new low for American democracy.
If 2025 taught us anything, Bari, it’s that you’re not supposed to smooch your interview subjects; you’re supposed to have long, torrid digital affairs with them and then write a “self-serious and altogether disappointing” memoir about it afterwards.1
I’m putting the other oligarchs who have captured our media outlets on here as well. Combined, these forces create a state media that would be right at home in Russia or North Korea.
22. Melania Trump
—2025 rank: unranked
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
Čeprav bi o Melanija Knavs rad napisal, kar res mislim in kar vem, nočem, da me toži. Kljub temu moram vprašati: kakšna je narava odnosa med Prvo Damo in Jeffrey Epstein?
21. Mark Zuckerberg
—2025 rank: unranked
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
A pimply-faced undergraduate who made an infantile app intended to rank the hotness of the campus coeds was plucked from obscurity by the president of his university and given a massive pile of money to scale up what became not The Facebook, but just Facebook. The university was Harvard; the president was Larry Summers, bosom buddy of Jeffrey Epstein; the money came from Peter Thiel and Yuri Milner and Alisher B. Usmanov.
Why did they pick this guy? Why did they enable him? Why did they let him be “The CEO, bitch?” Was Zuckerberg the beneficiary of all that start-up capital because his product was better? Or because he’s just the sort of incel sociopath his overlords knew would look the other way when his social [sic] media platform was weaponized? Maybe we should ask the Rohingya.
Whether the midterms take place this November is an open question, but we are in an election year. Too many MAGA zombies get their “news” from Facebook—and too many others from Instagram. Shut it down.
20. Steve Bannon
—2025 rank: 25
—2024 rank: 8
—2023 rank: 15
Like a herpes sore, Sloppy Steve flares up from time to time, forcing us to deal with his unfiltered ugliness—and even when he’s not visible, he never fully goes away.
This year, we learned that Bannon was working on a documentary that evidently sought to normalize and soften the image of the world’s most notorious child sex trafficker. Why did he do this? Did he see Epstein rehabilitation as some sort of challenge? Did he want in on the rapes? Is there any method to his madness? And: Will Big Pharma come up with a Valtrex strong enough to make him go away forever?
19. Alex Karp & Joe Lonsdale [tie]
—2025 rank: unranked
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
In “The Scouring of the Shire: a letter from concerned Palantir alumni to the tech workers of Silicon Valley,” an open letter released via NPR on May 5, 2025, 13 former employees of the mass surveillance tech company named for a magic item in The Lord of the Rings wrote:
When J.R.R. Tolkien passed, he left the story of the palantíri, the all-seeing stones of Middle Earth, unfinished. In a sense, the story is still being written.
The myth of the powerful seeing stones warned of great dangers when wielded by those without wisdom or a moral compass, as they could be used to distort truth and present selective visions of reality. Similarly, Palantir Technologies’ platform grants immense power to its users, helping control the data, decisions, and outcomes that determine the future of governments, businesses, and institutions — and by extension, all of us.
Early Palantirians understood the ethical weight of building these technologies. A Code of Conduct was crafted to uphold democracy, preserve the spirit of free scientific inquiry, and ensure responsible AI development. Guardrails were set to prevent discrimination, disinformation, and abuses of power.These principles have now been violated, and are rapidly being dismantled at Palantir Technologies and across Silicon Valley.
But hey, what would those woke losers know?
Karp, the brush-and-comb-allergic CEO of Palantir, is a former progressive who has drifted to the right as he becomes more and more butt-hurt that every human still in possession of his or her soul objects to his company’s partnership with ICE.
“Big Tech,” the letter concludes, “including Palantir, is increasingly complicit, normalizing authoritarianism under the guise of a ‘revolution’ led by oligarchs. We must resist this trend.”
No lies detected.
One of those oligarchs is Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale. You know, this guy:
These are the last people I want with all of my data.
18. Ghislaine Maxwell
—2025 rank: unranked
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
With the exception of Jared Kushner, there is no living human, other than Vladimir Putin, who Donald Trump is more considerate towards—and thus more afraid of. The angry POTUS who just this week flipped off a Ford auto worker and told him to go fuck himself won’t ever say a bad thing about his old chum Ghislaine. I have a pretty good idea of why that is.
17. Leonard Leo & His Six Supreme Court Justices
—2025 rank: 11
—2024 rank: 19
—2023 rank: 7
“Leonard Leo & His Six Supreme Court Justices” sounds like a Disney movie. Alas, it is not.
This dark money maestro installed five Justices on the highest court and is bosom chums with a sixth (Clarence Thomas). I’ve written about him extensively at PREVAIL…
…and my friend, the indefatigable Tom Carter, continues to beat the Leonard Leo drum. The media continues to ignore him. Still. In 2026. Even though, as Tom points out, “There is no ICE Gestapo in Minneapolis w/o Leonard Leo. No invasion of Venezuela, no razing or genocide in Gaza, no threats to Greenland, no crippling tariffs….Trump could not have been elected in 2016 or 2024 w/o Catholic Christofascist Leo.”
There is hatred in Leonard Leo’s heart. Given his Class III Obesity, might there also be a blood clot or two?
16. Larry Ellison
—2025 rank: unranked
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
The old man owns Oracle; the son, a failed actor, owns Hollywood. Neither of them realized naming one of their yachts “I AM A NAZI” spelled backwards was inadvisable.
Just spell it forwards, you cowards!
15. Rupert Murdoch
—2025 rank: 14
—2024 rank: 21
—2023 rank: 2
What I wrote last year holds up:
What I wrote last year holds up:
As I wrote last year, this purveyor of disinformation, fake news, and bilious hate is “unequivocally one of the worst human beings to ever draw breath on this planet.” But he’s sold his controlling interest in News Corp, and, I mean, in March he’ll turn ninety-fucking-three. I know that evil preserves these malevolent old geezers, like severed body parts in formaldehyde, but even Kissinger didn’t live forever.
In March he’ll turn ninety-fucking-four. And Kissinger lived to a hundred. Maybe Lucifer is busy constructing a whole new ring of Hell for this all-time scoundrel?
In March he’ll turn ninety-fucking-five. Go to the light, Rupie. Go to the light.
14. Pam Bondi
—2025 rank: 7
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
On his last day as Attorney General, Bondi’s hapless predecessor, the disgraced failure Merrick Garland, lauded the “norms” of the Justice Department. “Our norms,” he said, “are a promise to treat like cases alike—that we will not have one rule for the powerful and another for the powerless, one rule for friends and another for foes. They are a promise to ensure respect for the integrity of our career agents, lawyers, and staff, who are the institutional backbone and the historical memory of this Department….Those norms include our commitment to guaranteeing the independence of the Justice Department from…the White House.”
Pam Bondi was like, “Fuck all that.”
It’s like Garland spent his entire time at Justice cultivating the world’s most delicate orchid, only to have Bondi come in and immediately take a shit on it, pull it up by the roots, and feed it to Todd Blanche.
13. Tulsi Gabbard
—2025 rank: 6
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
In her failed defamation lawsuit against Hillary Clinton, Gabbard notes that the Defendant talked about “somebody who is currently in the Democratic primary” who—and the word “[they]” is inserted—“are grooming . . . to be the third-party candidate.” On some podcast, Clinton had said: “She’s the favorite of the Russians. They have a bunch of sites and bots and other ways of supporting her so far. And, that’s assuming Jill Stein will give it up, which she might not because she’s also a Russian asset. Yeah, she’s a Russian asset.”
Even though HRC never indicated which politician she was talking about, Tulsi Gabbard immediately assumed she meant Tulsi Gabbard. This remains hysterical!
This week, we found out that the rumor about Kyiv running a counterintelligence op to see if Washington was funneling intel to the Kremlin turned out to be fake. Even so, the fact that so many people fell for this hoax indicates how little trust our (former?) allies have in our sitting DNI.
Heck, even the other Trump Cabinet members can’t stand her; the West Wing joke is that “DNI” stands for “Do Not Invite.”
12. Russ Vought
—2025 rank: 22
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
The director of budget for Trump is quietly but dutifully implementing all the Project 2025 awfulness. He was a hateful little fascist before—his claim to fame is saying he wanted to put all government employees “in trauma;” you know, like Jesus would do—but now he’s even more bitter because he got divorced and…well, I’ll just let my friend Nina Burleigh explain it:
While investigating last year, Oklahoma City-based news station KFOR obtained thousands of emails between Mary Grace Vought and Matt Langston spanning more than a decade, indicating they had a personal relationship and had done business together for years.
A few months before the Vought divorce, Oklahoma City attorney Cameron Spradling tweeted the full text of a scathing email Langston’s ex-wife sent to a reporter. She called him a sociopath, accused him of tax evasion, serial infidelity including with a woman in Wisconsin, and failing to pay child support for their five children.
Huh. Sounds like the cuck chair is whatever chair Russ Vought is sitting in.
11. Jared Kushner & Steve Witkoff [tie]
—2025 rank: 19
—2024 rank: 11
—2023 rank: 1
Call me cynical, but the way I see it, Putin and Bibi did the demo work in the Donbas and Gaza; Trump has dispatched these two extra-governmental envoys, both New York real estate heavies, to make sure that Donald is first in line to build on the ruins. Trump Tower Gaza City and the Trump Resort & Casino at Mariupol are gonna be lit, yo.
10. Kristi Noem, Tom Homan & Greg Bovino [tie]
—2025 rank: 18
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
The troika in charge of Trump’s odious mass deportation movement and leaders of his secret state police.
Homan is the racist puke who looks like a sort of Bizarro World Homer Simpson in human—homan?—form. Noem spent New Year’s Eve at Mar-a-Lago, dancing to Vanilla Ice performing a live version of “Ice Ice Baby.” Bovino is the short little prick who wore the Nazi overcoat at the Minneapolis Target.
If our nation survives this horror, all three must spend the rest of their miserable lives in prison. CECOT, preferably.
9. Marco Rubio
—2025 rank: 9
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: 20
Call me petty, but I’m going to enjoy it when Trump sacrifices this soulless, foam-partying Nazi ghoul on the altar of his own insatiable ambition.
8. Peter Thiel
—2025 rank: unranked*
—2024 rank: unranked*
—2023 rank: unranked
Sweaty German/South African/U.S. immigrant who operates JD Vance like a drone. Went to Stanford, but missed the point of The Lord of the Rings and Neuromancer. Won’t shut up about the Antichrist—but then, we all like to talk about ourselves.
7. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.
—2025 rank: 4
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
Last year—before his confirmation hearing, and before the release of the poem he wrote to Olivia Nuzzi in which he referred to his ejaculate as his “harvest”—I wrote:
This gross, handsy, whale-beheading vaccine denier is the most likely among Trump’s hideous Cabinet appointees to not get confirmed. That would be good, because the last thing we need in this country is more diphtheria outbreaks. Let’s maybe not Make Polio Great Again.
I guess the good news is the outbreaks are “only” of the measles?
6. Pete Hegseth & Erik Prince [tie]
—2025 rank: 20
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
Ulysses Grant drank a quart of whiskey every day, and when some of his fellow officers groused to Lincoln about it, the President suggested that, given Grant’s rate of success on the battlefield, maybe the other officers should drink more rather than force the General to drink less.
So it’s not that Whiskey Pete is a drunk. It’s that Pete as a moron, and that he hates women, hates gay people, hates trans people, and probably hates himself—although he should hate himself. Can someone sing “Poor Jud is Dead” to him, maybe?
But it’s summer, and we’re running out of ICE…
Unfortunately, this comically-inept fake tough guy is in charge of our military. More worrisome, he has close ties to Erik Prince, the Prigozhin of the United States—and this will almost inevitably lead to war somewhere. Venezuela? Iran? Greenland? Canada? Don’t laugh—the tariffs on our neighbors to the North are affecting the production of whiskey in Kentucky. For Pete, that’s reason enough to take Calgary.
5. JD Vance
—2025 rank: 3
—2024 rank: 3
—2023 rank: unranked
Darling of radical Catholic weirdos, libertarian eugenics-loving tech bros, the NRx Dark Enlightenment crew, the Widow Kirk, and whatever unctuous cacodaemon Peter Thiel is. Scourge of every Ethan Allen outlet in the lower 48. Seriously—I heard he signed up for Ashley Madison because he heard he could meet sectionals there.
In his pathetic, embarrassing stint as VP, Vance has already proved willing to say literally anything, anything at all, to please his whoremasters. But at heart, he is a fascist—potentially Putin to Trump’s Yeltsin.
As I wrote last year:
Facts: Donald is almost eighty years old and pounds overweight; is under enormous stress; looks like complete shit; eats garbage; does drugs; can’t control his bodily functions; and is believed to have been suffering from dementia for a few years now. He has already survived one assassination attempt, and he is about to take a job where one in eleven of his predecessors were murdered on the job, and where, if we count Wilson, exactly one in five have died in office.
Ask an actuary what the chances are that Trump’s still kicking four years from now. Then reverse that number, and that’s the probability that JD Couchfucker will be our 48th president. Not being a lifelong criminal and asset of the Kremlin, Vance may well be an improvement over Trump. And yet, as Hamlet so eloquently (and soliloquy-ly) put it, fear of the unknown “makes us rather bear those ills we have / Than fly to others that we know not of.”
This sad, hollow man might occupy the Oval Office by this time next year. Heaven help us.
4. Stephen Miller

—2023 rank: unranked
I wonder if Katie Miller makes good strudel.
3. Elon Musk
—2025 rank: 1
—2024 rank: 5
—2023 rank: 8
This pasty, portly eugenicist is, as I wrote previously,
the richest man on earth; he is an enthusiastic booster of technologies that accelerate climate change; he is besties with Putin, Xi, and MBS; he ardently promotes authoritarian regimes in Germany, France, Great Britain, and the U.S.; he is a soulless husk who lacks even a trace of human empathy; he platforms and amplifies Nazis because he (ostensibly) agrees with them; he (allegedly) abuses ketamine; and he’s the de facto President-Elect, soon to be at the controls of the greatest military the world has ever seen. Elmo is the most dangerous man in the country, the most dangerous man in the world, and quite possibly the most dangerous man in the history of the world.
I’m pleased top report that Musk wasn’t as bad in 2025 as I thought he’d. Only, I legit thought he might end life on earth, so, I mean, it’s a very low bar.
With the aid of a young man known as Big Balls, our resident fascist took a sledgehammer to our bureaucracy and blindly smashed important beams in the architecture of our government—including USAID, the demolition of which has already killed half a million people in the poorest countries in the world, and will continue to kill more.
For some unknown reason, when I look at his pale, punchable face, I am reminded of the (probably apocryphal) way Marcus Licinius Crassus went out.
2. Jeffrey Epstein
—2025 rank: unranked
—2024 rank: unranked
—2023 rank: unranked
Epstein is so grotesquely evil, and personally responsible for so much woe, that him dead is still a bigger villain than anyone currently alive in the United States, except…
1. Donald Trump
—2025 rank: 2
—2024 rank: 1
—2023 rank: 9
. . . for his former wingman and fellow child rape enthusiast, whom we somehow managed to re-elect.
Congratulations to Donald Trump! He finally won a prize on his own!
(Applause.)
Two years ago, I wondered, “What’s the worst thing a former president of the United States could do?” Last year, I answered:
The worst thing a former president can do is return to the White House without having to worry about re-election, sell off our state secrets, dismantle our institutions, plunder federal resources on a Mogilevichian scale, lock up his political rivals, crash the global economy, invade Greenland, start a nuclear war, and end American democracy.
Four down, five to go. And it’s only been 12 months! The guy’s a veritable James K. Polk.
But seriously: I have been covering Trump for going on ten years. I’ve written about his mob ties, his Russia ties, his sexual assaults, his plunder, his coup attempt, his intimate ties to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. I’ve contemplated what evil might lurk in the Trump-Epstein Files. I thought I had him all figured out. Nope.
Only now do I see that Donald Trump is somehow worse—more evil, more contemptible, more devoid of human decency—that even I’d imagined. He is single-handedly responsible for the empowerment of most of the other 25 odious humans on this list—including the dead one. He is, without a doubt, the greatest villain of 2026.
(Applause.)
(Applause.)

American Canto is a pretentious title, but American Can’t O is right on the money.















Brava. Took a bit of wrangling but got the Melania comment. Yes she and JE, the relationship, I suspect that truth will prove to be in the realm of trafficker and traffickee on a grander scales than the bulk of those sad souls harmed by that SOB.
The list to me breaks down into three categories; perpetrators (the likes of trump, miller and pete the drunk and Bannon?),sycophants (Bondi, Noem, Shovitt, Maxwell and Gabbard) and hanger ons (everyone else) this last category comprised of individuals who have no objective other than to influence or support for personal gain.
Some observations. Melania stands as a category unto herself. An enigma, for me she defies understanding, a person who simply exists for no known reason other than perhaps as Donald's Putin handler. Speculative, I have no proof whatsoever, purely conjecture on my part. Second, for a man who is misogynist to the core, trump does attract many women who sadly serve as sycophants. His failed DoJ appointments in NJ (Habba) and VA ( Halligan) and the useless Pirro join the named group above. Perhaps they find visions of " grab them by ..." attractive? Will they go to their graves doing this bidding? Likely! Third, the hanger ons, perhaps are the most dangerous group. Why? Realistically should the perpetrators and sycophants meet their demise, the hanger ons will do just that, hang around and continue to poison our society in their varied and all encompassing ways.
Let's hope for 2027 the situation has changed such that you feel the urge to present the 27 Good Folks for 2027. Frankly I'll be happy with two or three.
It’s TUESDAY🎉Today’s the day…2:00pm WALK OUT and 3:00 pm visit or call your Representative and let them know you have had ENOUGH!!!
