Nouno the Vigilante Episode 39 Secret Meeting and Democrat failures

                Joshua Hunsucker is putting on his uniform.  It was this uniform that his wife Stacey was first attracted to him.  Living in North Carolina, the weather was nice as it wasn’t oppressively hot in the summers but not debilitating cold in the winter.   At 35, Joshua was still relatively young but old for his profession of a paramedic with the long hours.  On paper, Joshua had a good life as paramedics are highly respected and he had a loving wife and two small children.  Unfortunately, things aren’t always as great as they seem to be on paper. 

                Although paramedics do have medical knowledge as their jobs require them to perform medical care to patients as they transport them to the hospital, since they aren’t doctors they do not take the Hippocrates Oath.  Although it is a long oath, the core part of it is that you will not use your medical knowledge to do harm.  Hunsucker was about to do exactly that.  While alone with his wife in their bedroom, he attacked the woman three years his junior who had mothered his two children.  Using his knowledge of the human body, he efficiently murdered her and although it was an occasion to call someone of his profession, he did nothing to administer care and let his wife die.  Their two children will hardly remember who their mother was.

 

                On the opposite side of the country, Nouno and his wife Abby are in their pool to cool off from the hot Arizona sun.  Abby calls out to him “Are you ready for the primary season to start?”

                “Do you think it’s a coincidence that closing statements for the impeachment are today as well?  They’re still trying to take attention away from the Democrat primaries.”

                “No, people are still tuning in.”

                “Well, finally elections are getting to the 21^st century and tallying the votes with an app.”

                “It’s just a way for Hillary Clinton to corrupt the elections.  She’ll control the app and hack into it to skew it for her candidate and away from Bernie.”

                “What is it with you in thinking that Hillary controls the Democrat party?”

                “Because she does”

                “Whatever, we’ll just see who wins Iowa.  How are you going to feel if Bernie wins?”

                “Bad, I hate Bernie Sanders.  I don’t like socialists.”

                “Well, it will kill your narrative that Hillary owns the party.”

                “I guess that’s a silver lining but doesn’t make me too happy.”

                “The DNC just released a statement that they have been preparing for this for three years.  They’re really excited to roll it out.”

                “That’s so cute.” Nouno mocked

                They spent the day taking it easy and as night descended they tuned in to the TV to see who won Iowa.  After watching news anchors awkwardly try to fill in time as they await the results that will never come, Nouno’s smile grows wider and wider as Abby’s eyes get bigger and bigger and her mouth opens wider and wider.  Not only did the app fail but the hotline they used as a backup also overheated and failed.  Finally, the Democrats got desperate and asked for polling stations to take screenshots and text the results to them.  As they go to bed and there is no winner in Iowa, Abby lied next to her husband and sighs.  She remarks, “Okay, maybe you have a point with Hillary.”

                Nouno takes a condescending tone, “There’s no evidence Hillary had anything to do with this.”

                “Oh stop it.  It’s a little too convenient and suspicious.  Bernie was expected to win.”

                “I would agree but you’re the one that thinks I’m paranoid.”

                “You may be on to something.  I just admitted that.”

                “I know, but it doesn’t get old.”

                Abby smacks Nouno on the shoulder and lies down with her back to Nouno.  Nouno has a large grin as he takes great pleasure in the Democrats failure.

                When they wake up, they make breakfast and Abby announces, “We have a case.”

                “You need to release some aggression after having to admit I was right last night?”

                “You better be careful.  We’re going after someone that killed their spouse and it may just give me ideas.”

                “We’re going after a girl that killed her husband?”

                “No, we’re going after a guy that killed his wife.”

                “Well, that’s not what we have going on.  You’re talking about you killing me.  I would never hurt you.”

                “Keep bragging and I may hurt you.”

                Nouno chuckled and walked toward his wife with his arms out.  Abby gave a coy smile and rolled her eyes.  As Nouno wrapped his arms around her she pushed against his chest playfully trying to push him away but Nouno pulled her close.  She lifts her lips and kisses him on the lips and Nouno lets go.  He asks, “So where are we going?”

                “North Carolina”

                “Cool”

                Abby books a flight and they head to the airport.  As airports seem to only play CNN, Nouno is dismayed that he has to listen to the fake news network.  He sees Van Jones go on and admit that the Iowa Caucus had missed the boat.  Nouno states, “Wow, CNN actually admitted that the Democrats messed something up.”

                Van Jones continues, “You have to remember that Iowa is 90% white so they don’t represent the country.  They failed because they don’t represent black people or the rest of the country.”

                Nouno nods and declares, “And there it is; pulling the race card on an issue that has nothing to do with race.”

                Abby adds,’ “You’ll never guess who was in charge of the app.”

                “You’re right I won’t”

                “Hillary’s campaign manager and Romney’s campaign manager.”

                “Oh this just gets better and better.”

                “For the record, Robbie Mook, Clinton’s campaign manager, denies it.”

                “Yea, he was the genius that said that Bill Clinton was too old and couldn’t relate to young voters so shouldn’t campaign for Hillary. Hate to say I agree with newspapers over someone but in this case, I’m with the Des Moines newspaper.”

                They board the plane and Nouno lets the filter fail and pronounces, “From the party that brought you the ObamaCare website and the worst economic recovery in American history, tune in for the new election counting app in Iowa.”

                Abby decides not to fight it but join so she responds, “They may not be able to fix an app or a hotline, but they can sure take care of your healthcare.”

                “They successfully banned voter ID because it corrupts elections but screenshots are much safer.”

                Abby takes a normal tone, “Seriously though, it’s hard not to think this isn’t a conspiracy against Bernie.”

                “Which is great because the Bernie Bros may not come out to support a candidate if it’s not Bernie.  If they stay home, it just gives more help to President Trump to win re-election.”

                “Republicans are really going to pounce on this.”

                “As they should!  Think about all we have this week.  Monday, Democrats screw up the Iowa Caucus, Tuesday; President Trump gives the State of the Union to tell the country how great the economy is doing and all he’s achieved in three years and then Wednesday he gets acquitted officially taking the Democrats best shot and not being phased.  That’s how you start a week!”

                They land in North Carolina and check into their motel where they set about soundproofing it.  Abby furiously checks social media to find out everything she can about Joshua.  Nouno is a little worried as law enforcement tends to protect their own and the Fire Department works very closely with the police force.  A paramedic may be tough but they were never ones to shy away from a challenge.  They devise a plan and set to it.  Even though Joshua is now a single father, he spends a lot of his time at the bar enjoying his new found freedom as he is single.  Joshua left the kids with family so as to be partially responsible.  As he is drinking, a shoulder length blond girl sits next to him with thin lips, skinny body that only enhance her perfectly round butt and large perky breasts.  Her skin is flawless and her greenish-grey eyes are mesmerizing to Joshua.  She starts in a high pitched voice, “Hi, handsome what brings you in here?”

                Joshua looks down and realizes he’s wearing his fire department uniform.  This was on purpose since it was good bait to attract girls but girls that looked like this normally wait to be approached and don’t do the approaching no matter what the guy is wearing.  He stuttered a bit, “Umm, Hi”

                “I’m Ashley”

                “Joshua”

                “Nice to meet you” as Abby extends her hand. 

                Joshua shakes it, “Trust me, the pleasure is all mine.  Do you want a drink?”

                “I’d love one.  Thank you.”

                “Are you going to leave as soon as I buy you one?”

                Abby dropped her voice an octave and put on an offended tone, “Do I look like a girl that would do that?”

                “Yes”

                “Well, buy me a drink and find out.”

                Joshua does exactly that and Abby takes the drink and smiles, “Ok see ya” and takes a couple steps. 

                Joshua doesn’t follow but when she turned around they were both smiling, “I’m just being a punk” Abby comforted

                “I noticed”

                Abby put her hands on his arm and articulated, “I like your uniform” as she rubbed it.  What he didn’t realize was that Abby had a small syringe in her hand and slipped it into Joshua’s armpit. 

                Abby immediately ordered shots to cover up what she did.  The shots came and Joshua and she took one.  Abby noticed Joshua’s eyelids getting heavy.  She had already signaled Nouno to come in and he did.  Abby put on her charming voice and patted Nouno on the arm as he walked by, “Excuse me sir but my boyfriend has had a little too much to drink. You’re a big guy, can you help me get him into a cab so he can go home?”

                Nouno looked back and forth and nonchalantly shrugged his shoulders and responded, “Why not?”

                Nouno draped Joshua’s arm over his shoulder and they helped Joshua out of the bar and into their car.  Nouno and Abby got in and drove toward the hotel and Abby stopped smiling and turned the charm off.  Joshua woke up to find himself restrained to the table.  He tried struggling against his constraints but quickly realized that it was fruitless.  He was surprisingly calm when he inquired, “Why am I here?”

                Nouno replied, “You need to be punished for killing your wife.”

                “You don’t know what it was like living with her.”

                “I don’t care.  You don’t kill your wife.”

                “Did you know her?”

                “Nope”

                “Do you have kids?”

                “No”

                “Well, when you do, you’ll realize how much pressure they put on you.  I got these two kids to support and a wife that’s constantly nagging.  Everyone has their breaking point.”

                “A lot of people have two or more kids and a wife and they manage not to kill their wife.”

                “It’s just that with the misogynistic president, it’s hard to look at women equally when the country elects Donald Trump.”

                “You’re blaming the president for you killing your wife?”

                “Yea, did you see the impeachment hearings?  Schiff said that if they don’t remove him he’s going to sell Alaska to the Russians.”

                “He also said he’d move to Mar A Lago and make Jared Kushner president. If that’s what he’s coming up with in his closing statement, you know he has nothing.”

                “He’s just saying that just because it’s legal, doesn’t make it right.”

                “But he had to go to hypotheticals and make shit up rather than focus on what happened.  Well, what he alleges happened is also a made up thing so I can see why he doesn’t know the difference.”

                “Well, Weissman has already threatened that there will be more leaks.”

                “So what?  All the other leaks didn’t do anything what makes you think these will?  They got so desperate they utilized their biggest weapon; impeachment, and it still didn’t stop him.  He didn’t even mention it in the state of the union.”

                “Do you really want a king instead of a president?  If he gets acquitted, then he knows he’s untouchable.”

                “That would be the Democrats fault wouldn’t it be?”

                “Well yea, but we can’t go back and not impeach him.”

                “So, we should just remove him to save the Democrats from their retardation?”

                “I’m not saying that.  I’m just saying we fought a revolution to remove a king.”

                “If Trump was a king, you wouldn’t be able to insult him, there would be no judicial injunctions stopping him, the wall would be built and he wouldn’t be undermined at every turn.  Every time he writes an executive order or does anything, he gets sued.  You can’t do that to a king.”

                “That was before.  I’m talking the future.”

                “You’re not making any sense but I’ll turn it back on you.  Do you really want the party that brought you the Iowa Caucus debacle to be running the country?”

                “Even the conservative at the Washington Post, Jennifer Rubin, said that what good are the Iowa Caucuses anyway?”

                “First of all, Washington Post has no conservatives.  Rubin just pretends to be so she can say stupid shit and contradict herself like a liberal.  In this case, she wrote an article on 5/13/19 entitled, ‘Why Iowa is so important this time.’ So which is it?  It can’t be important when everything is running smoothly and then no good and unimportant when it collapses.”

                Abby interrupts, “Okay, this has gone on long enough.  He’s a moron.  He killed his wife, he dies now.”

                Joshua had a pleading tone, “Please don’t.  I have two young kids at home and I’m all they got.  There’s not a day that goes by I don’t regret what I did to their mother.”

                “Stacey”

                “What?”

                “Say your wife’s name”

                Joshua took a swallow of saliva and pronounced, “Stacey”

                “Just as how your argument that we should remove the president because he may be emboldened that all these fake charges didn’t stick, you can’t kill your wife and then claim people shouldn’t kill you so as to not make your kids orphans.  They’re better off without you.  Case in point, you were at a bar hitting on me instead of home with your kids.”

                “You came up to me.”

                “You reciprocated and now instead of you penetrating me, I’m going to penetrate you” as Abby stabbed Joshua in the chest killing him instantly. 

                Abby and Nouno wrapped the body and loaded it into the trunk of their car.  They went to a crematorium that they already scoped out and broke in loading Joshua’s body on the machine and activating it.  After they get him in, they leave to go to a diner as they wait for the body to disintegrate down to the bones.  As they order, Abby poses, “Have you heard of Olga Bielkova?”
                “Yea, she’s a Ukrainian law maker”

                “Well, apparently Victor Pinchuk sponsored a trip for her to come to America in April 2016.”

                “Interesting; Pinchuk is the Clinton Foundation’s biggest donor.  He’s a Ukrainian billionaire.”

                “Right”

                “What did he fly Bielkova to America for?”
                “To meet with Barack Obama and Eric Ciaramella at the White House.”

                “Seven months before the election”

                “Yuppers”

                “She seemed pretty busy.  Also met with David Kramer.”

                “He was McCain’s aid that gave the Steele dossier to the FBI.”

                “Same guy yea”

                “There’s a lot of stuff that has come out about Ciaramella.  Victoria Nuland e-mailed him about the loan guarantees to Ukraine that Biden held up because they were investigating his son.”

                “Who’s Victoria Nuland?”

                “She worked for Hillary and Bill Clinton.  Whenever you have one of the Clinton’s, she’s not far behind.”

                A large man comes over.  He stands at 6’3” and extremely broad with a shaggy beard.  He speaks with a deep voice that matches his size.  He starts, “I’m sorry that I was eavesdropping but I’m really interested in Spygate.  Olga Bielkova was also on a Ukrainian Natural gas discussion panel.”

                “Probably why Burisma was always touting Hunter Biden and bragging that they had him on the board.  They were telling the state department as a not so subtle suggestion that the needed to help them with their legal troubles with the Ukrainian investigations.”

                Abby was on her phone and read from it, “It appears she’s still involved.”

                The big man posed, “What do you mean?”

                “She’s a big time Biden supporter.  She wrote an article that Biden would be good news for Ukraine.”

                They finish their dinner and then head out to the crematorium to clean up.  What they find is cop cars and sirens as the smoke was discovered.  The car was booked under Nouno’s name so Abby books a one way rental to Nashville.  They head back to the hotel and pack their things and load up the car.  They return the rental and take Abby’s rental and drive to Nashville where Abby already booked a flight.  A couple days later, they are on a plane back to Arizona resisting the urge to check local news for information about Joshua.  If they had, they would realize that it had made the local news but the police were looking at Stacey’s family.

                On the plane, Nouno raised his arms and cheered, “Yes”

                Abby turned to him, “What?”

                “The GOP is investigating several Obama aids in voter manipulation in 2016.  The payback has started.”

“Don’t get your hopes up.  Like you always say, Democrats are above the law.”

“Yea, I know but I can still hope.”

“I found out someone else who was at those White House meetings.”

“Who?”

“Alexandra Chalupa.”

“Of course she was.  I mean, if she’s going to be travelling to Ukraine and getting fake black ledgers to take down Manafort, she might as well be involved in colluding to take down the president.  She is the biggest Ukrainian colluder so why wouldn’t she be in the meeting?”

“Exactly, you should have figured that.”

“It almost goes without saying.”

“It is interesting.”

“You want to know what’s even more interesting?”

“Yes”

“All this happened at the same time that Biden was threatening Porochenko to fire the prosecutor general Shokin or else they’re not getting the billion dollars.”

“I wonder if that’s what the meetings were about.”

Nouno took a sarcastic tone to match Abby’s, “Oh, I’m sure that’s just a coincidence.”

“Of course it is.  Don’t be ridiculous.”

The plane arrives in Arizona and Nouno and his wife go home and decompress.  They hope nobody picked up the rental car near the crematorium as it was away from the city, which is why they chose it.  They never did find out how the authorities found it so quickly but they believed they dodged a bullet.  They thought to avoid North Carolina but decided that they couldn’t be paranoid.  They had to go where the cases brought them.
