from The Republic Briefing · host Carlos Reyes III
Wednesday, April 29, 2026 • Today's Principle: Decay The EU's case against Meta for failing to protect underage users isn't a tech regulation story — it's evidence of household decay.

The charge is direct: audit your home's screen access tonight and make one governing decision before the week is out. Scripture: 1 Peter 5:8 Today's Charge: Audit your household's screen access tonight and make one governing decision — a specific rule with a consequence — about what platforms your children can access and when. — 📖 Men of the Republic — the book behind the briefing.
