"Zuckerberg wants amnesty. He wants to eat a teensy bit of crow in exchange for amnesiac friends across the aisle who treat him like the next Elon Musk who swooped in with lifeboats for the sinking ship, rather than the corrupt captain who took the ship down. This isn’t a real admission of guilt. We can’t give Mark Zuckerberg amnesty for the same reason we can’t give it to Anthony Fauci or Joe Biden or Letitia James or Jack Smith. There can be no amnesty without restitution and true accountability — for Covid crimes, corruption, lawfare, or, in this case, censorship. It’s too little, too late.
"Zuckerberg is ultimately shooting for a plea deal in the court of public opinion. He wants to throw his co-conspirators under the bus and half-heartedly admit guilt for lesser offenses with the hope of a slap on the wrist and maybe a little community service. That’s not justice, and the American people should reject it."

A few weeks ago, an image went viral. In Belgium a migrant used the eternal flame at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to cook an omelette. For many, the desecration brought to mind a quote from French author Jean Raspail, written in 1973 in his novel Camp of the Saints, about a sudden invasion of Muslim, Indian and African migrants into France:
“Your universe has no meaning to them. They will not try to understand. They will be tired, they will be cold, they will make a fire with your beautiful oak door.”
“Beware of two errors: despising the world God sustains, or worshipping the culture He restrains.”
— Abraham Kuyper, Common Grace Vol. 1, Ch. 30
"[Successful NY Mayoral candidate] Mamdani built his campaign on the infrastructure of the Democratic Socialists of America. The DSA and its city allies can dispatch activists across New York and, with a network of progressive partner organizations, can mobilize young people, get out the vote, and do the work of door-to-door politics.
"We saw this dynamic many times in the twentieth century: socialists rise to power, their policies degrade the quality of life, and, as they enter the endgame, they tighten their grip on power and offload resentments onto their ideological, racial, and economic enemies.
"...the twentieth century taught us that left-wing voters have extraordinary defenses against reality."
-- Christopher Rufo
