As soon as General Boyko reached his office, Timmy arrived with the latest batch of items from Nemesis. He went through them while he was still shrugging off his greatcoat. “Why is the American government harboring a Zionist terrorist in its secret services?” the first one read. It went on to accuse Benjamin Butler of the most despicable crimes, the latest in what was now a barrage of “newly unearthed facts” incriminating him. Boyko turned to the next several communiqués. It was immediately apparent that Nemesis was also stepping up its campaign to trash any American not of the Caucasian persuasion. Two items accused the black American professional athletes of being un-American. The first, for taking the knee during the playing of the national anthem at the beginning of sports events. The second, for speaking out via social media, condemning the president’s stance. A third item was in defense of the president for tweeting that the American flag burning by the neo-Nazis, now called the alt-right, an amusing euphemism that Boyko had dreamed up himself, was an acceptably peaceful manner of protest. These items, which he gave off to Timmy to disseminate through the latest iteration of bot-armies, like many from Nemesis that passed through Boyko’s hands, tickled his funny bone so deeply that he was forced to guffaw out loud. It was immensely amusing to him that Nemesis was his number one client.

What fools these Westerners be, he thought, returning to the much less entertaining paperwork with which he was constantly flooded. Which, in its way, served the purpose of keeping his mind away from what had almost happened to his daughter.
