It’s been a whirlwind of a day, with news of the WH Executive order (to appear less monstrous in its handling of immigrant children and parents) dominating the airwaves and the Internet.
Here is a quick summary of the main events and several others, that show that in spite of overwhelming odds, humanity is making progress. The title of the diary pays homage to the Good News Roundup diary, published here every morning (I just couldn’t wait until the morning).
Yes, there are plenty of hideous news items today that hurt humanity on the whole, but we can get some solace and inspiration from the items listed here. Yes, there will be setbacks, minor and major, every day and continued erosion of our democracy and our values; after all the GOP controls every branch of government.
Let’s keep the pressure up, organize, write, vote, volunteer, donate, inspire, energize, GOTV and let’s get rid of this cancer.
