Daily Kos Good News Round-U

Post » Tue Jul 18, 2017 8:52 am

This continuing column has encouraged me when things look bleak. Those who have fought for what is right have made a difference. GoodNewsRoundup cites the progress made by those who resist and puts a positive spin on what we have accomplished. We must continue to fight!

This week's Good News Roundup:
Trump is a total loser and only getting losing-er but the Resistance is strong: Tuesday's Good News

Having a source of encouragement is important these days. I follow one guy on Twitter - he has "sources" & interesting news such as human trafficking & Trump's "modeling agency". Who knows if it's accurate, but his main theme is:

"Truth, Justice and the American Rule of Law shall win the Day. We will get through this. Together."

We gotta just keep telling ourselves that.

I continue to read The Daily Kos Good News Round-Up. The most recent was very uplifting.

Nobody is above the law. Be ready to fight if trump fires Mueller:

"I have signed up to protest in case this happens."

We're planning on it. I'll come back & read the dailykos link.

A great quote I ran across today in the comments is:

A civilization is not destroyed by wicked people; it is not necessary that people be wicked but only that they be spineless.
— James A. Baldwin

Okay. This "The Kind of Story We Need Right Now: Woman Scares Off Wild Cougar with Metallica Song" came via a comment at the Daily Kos:

I loved it! There is no doubt Seth did too. I am glad she sensed it was there.

I've read part of it. It's definitely encouraging. It's so hard to trust anything positive,though.
