Recall, if you will, the shrieking hysteria from Ezra Levant when his worthless crapfest of a media outlet was denied accreditation for the last Canadian federal election debates -- dear God, the tear-soaked whining on and on and, holy fucking God, tediously on ... you'd swear that, the way Ezra sobbed inconsolably online, someone had criticized his fundraising or something ...
Which brings us to the exciting development today, when Florida GOP governor Ron DeSantis, for the signing of a rancid, racist bill to restrict voting rights in his state, limited media attendance to the signing of that rubbish to Fox News:
I, of course, so look forward to the slimy hacks at Rebel News to show some consistency and take DeSantis to task for being that selective about media attendance.
I'm sure that will happen any minute now. Yup, any minute now.
Any minute now ...

I note with delight that Paypal has pulled the plug on the Rebel (and apparently on Ezra personally). That really will hurt the Rebel badly, I think - their entire revenue generation model depends on being poking readers repeatedly to donate online with a single, simple click. Those folks are NOT going to be writing and mailing cheques, which requires a degree of motor capacity and sequential planning that far exceeds those of the average Rebel reader.
As was the case with his YouTube cancellation, Ezra professes complete astonishment about which of Paypal's terms he might have violated. I would think that's pretty obvious.
Paypal does not permit transactions that "...encourage, promote, facilitate or instruct others to engage in illegal activity." The Rebel has been celebrating and promoting violation of public health measures, assisting with the organization and promotion of events held specifically to mock and flaunt the law, and in some cases supporting people in sneaking out of legal quarantine.
Or could it be the provision that forbids "...the promotion of hate, violence, racial or other forms of intolerance"?
