S. Stephen, Stephanos - "the crowned" - offers us perhaps the most stirring condemnation of the Jews we find in Scripture outside the words of Our Lord Himself. Like Our Lord, and like all martyrs, he was made to suffer because he held up a mirror to sinful men confirmed in their viciousness; like the fool of Proverbs, they hated him for the truth he showed them.
Let all our words and all our actions remind us and those around us of our unworthiness before God, that we may be the wise man who loves correction, and be crowned by the Truth to which we witness. S. Stephane, ora pro nobis!

Some people used the platform to organize ahead of the storming of the U.S. Capitol in January 2021, and last month Senator Mark Warner sent a letter to Durov urging him to curb Russian information operations on Telegram. Pavel Durov, Telegram's CEO, is known as "the Russian Mark Zuckerberg," for co-founding VKontakte, which is Russian for "in touch," a Facebook imitator that became the country's most popular social networking site.
