Celebrating that grand jury that New York prosecutors have convened against Benedict Donald? This will make you feel even better: Here is a US Marine at the White House, holding the door to the West Wing open for the daughter of George Floyd — so she and her family could visit with President Biden and Vice President Harris today.
What a difference an election makes. Take a moment to remember where we were a year ago. Floyd had just been murdered, the racial justice demonstrators in Lafayette Square had yet to be tear-gassed, and a half-million Americans had not yet died of COVID (but would). Thank goodness, 81 million of us turned out in November to end the Trump sh*tshow once and for all.
And now half of American adults are vaccinated. (Hot on the heels of half of Canadians, too.) Sure, things will continue to take time — more shots have to go in arms, and the grand jury may not decide on charges for months. And there's no police reform legislation yet. But we're going in the right direction. We cats PURR.
