King of Dogs: Life is the training ground for death

Anyone who has read Stella Maris will find that turn of phrase electrifying.

From the only author for whose novels I’ll shill:

Jay and Al, exiled Rhodesian mercenaries near the end of their rope, take a bagman job for a man in black named Cohen. Launched deep into the heavy syndicate, Jay and Al navigate cutouts and cults, MK-Ultra and ethnomafias, and the shadowy founders of the digital era — a dark journey culminating in an inconceivable collision of the criminal and spiritual underworlds. Part hardboiled noir, part psychogenic fugue, CROWBAR races at the bugged-out speed of the cocaine-and-cash-fueled ‘80s, as if James Ellroy mindflayed David Lynch into the arms of Dostoevsky.

I’m in even more anticipation of his next novel:

Abstract Operator

Helen Andrews’s recent interview with the Daily Signal:

mentioned David French’s rather negative view of her “misogynistic” position.

Lo and behold the title of the NYT op ed by David French.

What’s got into David French?

I asked Grok “what is david french’s critique of helen andrews?”

Long story short, David French’s mention of “The Thirty Years War” is telling:

He would rather have a supremacist theocracy because, after all, it was MEN who demanded tolerance of those who differed in their strongly held beliefs THROUGH ASSORTATIVE MIGRATION aka Sortocracy.org. There must, according to French, be no escape for anyone anywhere from “Mother Church”.
