Dear God.
Infants. Tiny babies.
Birth to 3 months is known by many as the “fourth trimester.” It is theorized human newborns have to emerge earlier than ideal because we have such large heads. As a result, we are born without fully developed neurological systems. https://t.co/3IAEuOPsKT

Here is Fox News in my country trying to whip its audience into a frenzy of fear. The "war" he's talking about is TV crews at the border telling the public about a Trump policy that separates migrant parents from children. This is what he describes as "trying to destroy." https://t.co/pJkO3BtTAY

Locking up children and separating them from their parents is "cruel" and "immoral." It doesn't secure our borders. It erodes our moral center. This abhorrent policy must end. https://t.co/v0WeL47HdF

Mike Peters is recognized as one of our nation’s most prominent cartoon artists for his outstanding work as both a political and comic strip cartoonist. His favorite expression “WHAT A HOOT” certainly sums up his outlook on his life and work which are inexorably entwined. Mike’s warm, easygoing and zany demeanor is evidence that his personality matches his creative talents. As so eloquently phrased by a colleague — “Mike is the Peter Pan of the cartooning world; he’s boyishly charming, good with a rapier and doesn’t spend a lot of time on the ground. And he doesn’t seem to want to grow up”.
The Comic Strip Mother Goose & Grimm appears in over 800 newspapers worldwide and consistently places in the top 10 most popular ratings.
