In Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, the rules of logic, time, justice, and civility are turned upside down. It’s a world where madness is the norm, and reason is met with ridicule. Increasingly, our reality feels much the same. Like Alice, we are rational beings navigating a world where familiar systems are unraveling.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau—once a watchdog for the public—is quietly transforming into a shield for corporate interests.

The Department of Justice, once a pillar of impartiality, now seems to be selectively enforcing the law: dropping investigations into Trump’s allies while targeting his critics, even elected officials.

Corruption, once hidden for fear of scandal, is now flaunted. Contribute to Trump’s coffers, and you gain access. Influence is no longer earned—it’s bought.

FEMA, a federal agency designed to coordinate emergency responses, is increasingly pushing its responsibilities onto under-resourced state governments.

And as for science—once our best tool for public health—it’s under siege. Life-saving vaccines are demonized, while conspiracy theories flourish.

This isn't just a political shift. It’s a slow, disorienting tumble down the rabbit hole, where truth is negotiable and the absurd becomes policy.
