Alice in Wonderland is in the forest. She has a white maple leaf on the back of her blue dress. She is looking at Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum on a fallen tree trunk in the forest. On Tweedle Dee's pants is: Quebec Separatists. On Tweedle Dum's pants is: Alberta Separatists

Why is no media focusing on Trump’s 2025 call to PM Trudeau, when he said he wanted our share of the Great Lakes? Renaming Lake Ontario is covert annexation. #Never51 How Trump’s ‘51st State’ Canada Talk Came to Be Seen as Deadly Serious www.nytimes.com/2025/03/07/w... Trump and Lutnick:
He wanted to tear up the Great Lakes agreements and conventions between the two nations that lay out how they share and manage Lakes Superior, Huron, Erie and Ontario.

Turns out we can have nice things with the right, courageous leadership.
Screenshot of a post on X by “Mayor Zoharan Kwame Ma…” saying that on day 8 of their administration, he and @GovKathyHochul announced the beginning of universal childcare in NYC. The post says New Yorkers will no longer be forced to choose between starting a family and continuing to live in the city they love, and adds: “This only happened because of you.” Below the text is a video thumbnail showing a man in a dark suit and maroon tie seated at a desk in an office with a lamp behind him; a subtitle on the video reads: “Freeze the rent for rent stabilized tenants,” and a speaker icon appears in the corner.
