🇺🇸🇨🇦 Canadian PM, Mark Carney, tells journalists that a trade agreement with the U.S. was ready but hours before the trade deal was set to take effect the Trump Admin altered the terms of the agreement forbidding Canada from negotiating trade deals with other countries so Carney tore up the agreement.

📞 🇺🇸 👨‍💻 Two national laboratories on Long Island have successfully used quantum entanglement to transmit information in open air, potentially leading to a revolutionary transformation for communications and information technology.

The FSO link — which includes the Quantum Lighthouse and Quantum Watchtower, along with a third facility under development at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut — adds a wireless component to the record-setting quantum network currently spanning 161 miles and several institutions across Long Island and the New York metropolitan area.

Using this network, pioneered by Stony Brook and Brookhaven Lab, researchers can transmit entangled photons through commercial fiber. Because the particles remain entangled even when separated by long distances, measuring one photon instantly reveals information about its counterpart. This property, often referred to as “spooky action at a distance,” is key for the future of ultra-secure communications, advanced quantum sensing, and networked quantum computing.

Today’s classical wireless technologies, including cell phones and orbiting satellites, use radio frequencies to transmit information without a physical connection. But radio frequencies are far too noisy to preserve fragile quantum information. Instead, the researchers turned to optical light for sending quantum signals through open air.

“People think of telescopes as tools for looking up into space, but the same technologies that allow astronomers to precisely collect and control light are essential for these quantum experiments,” said Justine Haupt, Brookhaven Lab’s lead scientist on the cross-institutional FSO link project.

Expanding beyond the limits of fiber also opens the door to new kinds of quantum experiments by enabling researchers to use photons with wavelengths, or “colors,” different from the telecommunications wavelengths optimized for commercial fibers. Many quantum technologies naturally operate at these other wavelengths, making free-space links a promising path toward linking quantum devices across long distances. Researchers ultimately envision using the FSO link to connect quantum computers at Brookhaven and Stony Brook — and beyond — enabling them to work together and tackle some of the nation’s most pressing scientific challenges.

🇨🇦⚔️🇺🇸 Reporter: Why does it feel like Mark Carney is going to war today?

Carney: "Because we were attacked. You go to war when you're attacked. The United States put 50% [tariffs first]. We waited until the United States decided to actually implement these tariffs. That's fine. We've got the reserves, the resilience, the plan, the focus, we will respond we're gonna focus on what we can build".

📝 Anon: Americans should have realised by now that if you treat your alliances as a global extortion racket and wave the big stick around all the time eventually all your allies will forego from their commitments and seek new partners that actually treat them with respect.

🕸 🇺🇸 👮‍♂️ Spiderman Fights Minneapolis Police during Jake Lang Protest outside City Hall

📎 Oliya Scootercaster

👮‍♂️ 🇺🇸 🔒 Jake Lang and six others have now been booked into the Hennepin County Jail following today’s clashes in downtown Minneapolis.
Lang is being held on probable cause for riot. Jail roster entries also show:
• Eric Dawson • Charles Miles • Stephen Major • John William-Kei Irwin • Matthew Norby • Jayden Scott
The bookings come after Lang’s rally and confrontation with counter-protesters in downtown Minneapolis.
This is also not Lang’s first Minnesota arrest this year. On Feb. 5, he was arrested after video showed him kicking down portions of the permitted “Prosecute ICE” ice sculpture at the Minnesota State Capitol. He was subsequently charged with felony criminal damage to property.
The Hennepin County bookings are currently listed as probable cause, meaning formal charges in connection with today’s incident are being considered per Minneapolis Mayor and MPD press conference held this afternoon.

🕸 🇺🇸 👮‍♂️ Jake Lang’s time in Minneapolis was extremely brief today. He rolled up, immediately got swarmed (including by someone in a Spider-Man costume), retreated into a vehicle, and fled shortly after. Whole thing lasted a few minutes, tops. Wild scenes.

@PatriotFrontNews » Activists from Network 22 gathered in Ottawa, Illinois to protest the ongoing Islamic invasion of the region. A speech was given near the site of the first permanent Norwegian settlement in America, where activists objected to a Pakistani company planning an Islamic community that would overwhelm the local population.

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 Situation on the Orekhov & Omelnyk directions, Zaporozhye Oblast:

Over the last week, Russian forces have continued their storming operations on Orekhov, while making additional advances from the east.

In the southwest, Russian forces continued infiltrating through Novodanylivka to the southeastern part of Orekhov, where fighting is slowly shifting towards the city centre. Russia is unable to gain a foothold here, however, due to the continued presence of Ukrainian formations in Novodanilovka, where fighting is ongoing. Russian forces are also attempting to infiltrate the forests west of Malaya Tokmachka, which, if captured, they could use to accumulate and enter Orekhov in much larger numbers.

To the east, the Russians continued advancing northeast of Malaya Tokmachka, capturing new positions along the tactical heights, and further threatening Ukrainian formations in Belogorye with encirclement. They are now actively trying to capture positions in and around the forests further west, in coordination with infiltrations north from Malaya Tokmachka towards the nearby trench fortification network. Heavy fighting continues for Malaya Tokmachka itself.

To the northeast, Russian forces improved their positions west and southwest of Charivnoe, and are continuing attempts at infiltrating up to the eastern and western parts of Novoselovka. Meanwhile, heavy fighting continues for fields west of Gorky and Verkhnaya Tersa, as Russian assault groups continue attempts at advancing towards Kopani, Babashi, Rovnoe, and Dolynka.

🇷🇺⚔️🇺🇦 Situation south of the Dobropolye direction, Donetsk/Dnipropetrovsk Oblasts:

Over the last two weeks, Russian forces continued their offensive operations near the Donetsk-Dnipropetrovsk regional border, making new advances in both oblasts.

In the southwest, Russian forces recaptured positions in the western part of Novopodgornoye following earlier Ukrainian infiltrations, and intensified their attacks northwest to Raipolye. Heavy fighting has resumed for the treelines north of the Pokrovsk Coal Mine, as Russian assault groups attempt to reach Sergeevka from the south and southeast.

To the northeast, the Russians cleared the rest of the salient west of Grishino, capturing a large number of treeline positions. Heavy fighting is now underway for Ukrainian strongpoints along the next section of the E-50 Highway, as Russian forces attempt to bypass Sergeevka from the north. Additionally, Russian assault groups improved their positions in the treelines and forested gullies south of Mirnoe (Lenina) and are attempting to reach the line of anti-tank ditches south of Gulove. Their neighbours attacking west along the northern bank of the Grishinka River have had less success, with their advance completely stalling.
