Kari Lake, a Trump Acolyte, Struggles to Find Her Path

The Republican Senate candidate in Arizona, who has been an election denier and Donald Trump supporter, is seeking to appeal to establishment Republicans.

Albert Camus is often found on the right side of many of the 20th century's great moral issues: he joined the French resistance to Nazism, campaigned against the death penalty, and wrote perceptively about the evils of Stalinism. He was born on this day in 1913

In “Chinese Shadows,” Mr. Ryckmans wrote that even though Mao and his acolytes would leave the scene, and there would be an inevitable relaxation of authoritarian rule, the fundamental characteristics of Communist rule would not change.

“Among various descriptions of Communist China made at different times, one may note differences,” he wrote, “yet if these descriptions have been made conscientiously and perceptively, they will show more than ephemeral journalistic truths, for modifications will be in quantity, never in quality — variations in amplitude, not changes in basic orientation.”

在《中國的陰影》一書中，李克曼寫道，儘管毛和他的扈從們終將離場，權威統治會出現一個不可避免的放鬆時期，但共產主義統治的基本特點不會改變。

「在不同時期對共產主義中國的各種描述中，人們可以發現區別，」他寫道。「如果這些描述都是發自良心，有洞察力的，它們呈現出來的東西要比短暫的新聞真實更多，各種改良都是量變，而不是質變——它們只是角度上的變化調整，而不是基本方向的改變。」

Both authors point to the tragedy of her career even though her book sales turned her into a multimillionaire and a cultural icon. She lived to see laissez-faire triumph over collectivism and one of her leading acolytes, Alan Greenspan, appointed to the president’s Council of Economic Advisers. But nothing was ever good enough for her and she felt surrounded by traitors. Ms Heller is particularly informative on the way that the “collective” fell apart when she fell out with Branden.
