A Very, Very, Bad Week For Ezra Levant and "The Rebel"

That may very well be a huge understatement:

• ‘That’s just racist’: Ezra Levant distances The Rebel from alt-right as contributors resign
• Conservatives Finally Ditching The Rebel Have a Lot to Answer For
• 'We have to be firm': UCP leadership candidate doubles down on Rebel Media opposition
• The Rebel exodus suggests just one ‘ism’ separates far right from alt-right hate: Paradkar
• The Rebel’s steady spiral downwards
• Bonfire of The Rebel
• The Rebel Cruise Has Been Cancelled
• Chris Selley: Why The Rebel ditched the cause after a woman died in Charlottesville
• Tension between The Rebel and Canadian conservatives erupts anew
• Andrew Scheer won't grant interviews to The Rebel under current 'editorial direction'
• Gavin McInnes Leaving The Rebel
• Exclusive: Rebel Media’s Ezra Levant Received Foreign Funding from ‘Anti-Muslim’ Think Tank
• Andrew Scheer’s campaign manager on ending his Rebel ties

And most recently, even though Faith Goldy firmly stated that she would "stand with Ezra"....

.... it looks like Ezra wasn't as willing to stand with Faith:

• Rebel Media meltdown: Faith Goldy fired as politicians, contributors distance themselves

Yeah, she actually thought appearing as a guest on a "Daily Stormer" podcast was a good idea given the current shit storm.

However, perhaps the most damaging story ultimately might be these ones:

• Ex-Rebel Contributor Makes Explosive Claims In YouTube Video

• Ezra Levant’s Friend Who Negotiated Caolan Robertson’s Rebel Exit Was Kory Teneycke

Yeah.... though nothing has been proven thus far, this if true is a huge deal?

Now, the criticism coming from these sources as well as my own criticisms of "The Rebel" really don't mean much the the tens of thousands of Levant's and "The Rebel's" loyal viewers and supporters. We are #fakenews, lieberals, and probably all on George Soros' payroll because that's the mantra of many of those loyal followers. So the question that should be asked is how are they responding to these stories, especially the claims made by the former correspondent?

Well, thus far it seems that they are split down the middle.

Let's take Ronny Cameron and his Facebook readers as representative of a subset of "Rebel" supporters reacting to all this bad news. As of only a few days ago, Ronny was eager to send in his resume to become a member of "The Rebel" family:

There are more comments urging Cameron to apply as he would be "a perfect fit."

Less than 48 hours later?

Cameron posted two live videos that ARC has combined in which he talks about the allegations made by the former correspondent as well as the firing of Faith Goldy.

The video is quite long so feel free to hop around:

The responses to the two videos mirror what I've seen elsewhere from supporters of, "The Rebel": confusion, anger, disbelief, lashing out at the Liberal Party/msm/George Soros/Andrew Scheer, and a smattering of antisemitic comments. The following screen shots are representative of the attitudes found on Cameron's page as well as elsewhere:

Suffice it to say, the fringe right devotees of "The Rebel's" brand of conspiratorial, Islamophobic, race-baiting, Trump worshiping, "journalism" have been thrown into some turmoil. And as Levant's baby has bit hit with body blow after body blow since Saturday, everyone is waiting to see what the next shoe to drop will be.

ARC will certainly be staying tuned.
