In this episode of "Good News for Lefties," host Beowulf Rochlen brings you a collection of uplifting stories that highlight the resilience of democracy, the fight for progressive values, and the triumphs of the left in the face of adversity. From the ACLU's bold legal actions against the Trump administration's misuse of the Alien Enemies Act to Maine's courageous stand for transgender rights, we explore how liberal values are being defended in the courts. We also celebrate the restoration of Harriet Tubman's legacy by the National Park Service, the groundbreaking wildlife crossing in Los Angeles, the FDA's approval of a new UTI treatment, and the recognition of ancient trees as an old-growth forest near Detroit. Join us for a dose of positivity and inspiration, and remember to share this podcast with others who need a little good news in their lives!
Positive, daily news for democracy lovers!
