Shorter Ezra: "So long, and thanks for all the dosh."

I am still snickering to myself over the latest development in Rebel News' Ezra Levant's questionable, sketchy and utterly unaccountable "Fight the Fines" campaign wherein, after having hoovered up God knows how many millions ostensibly to help the little guy fight The Man regarding pandemic-related protest and lockdown-related fines, Rebel News has announced it is getting out of the, you know, protest and lockdown-related fines business:


This is an interesting development, given that it was Ezra who -- once upon a time -- squealed gleefully about how he was ready to go to war on behalf of every single down-trodden victim he could:


However, lest you be one of the unfortunate suckers ^H^H^H^H^H^H^H donors who handed over a whack of cash and was expecting something in return, well, you're screwed because Ezra has made it clear from the beginning that he was happy to take your credit card number, but was promising absolutely nothing in return:


In other words, you should have read the fine print.

I will admit, however, that even as I mocked Ezra's long-running cash grab, I never imagined he would be so brazen as to collect all that cash, then casually close up shop like this, leaving every hopeful defendant and their nutsacks twisting in the wind.

As Matt Damon once said to Jimmy Kimmel, "See you at the afterparty."

Oh, it was a lottery.
