Rachel: Romero, head of ACLU, and Healey, Mass AG, both inspiring, positive and hopeful

So those of you watching Rachel heard Anthony Romero, ACLU director, and Maura Healey, AG for Mass, talking about all the legal action in the works. Healey is one of the 17 state AGs suing Trump, and of course the ACLU has a bunch of legal actions in the works. Rachel commented that they both sounded positive, and they both said they were, and both emphasized the importance of continuing to resist and not giving up.

I gotta say I felt better after listening to them.

It is heartwarming that 17 states came together in such a short time to organize a suit. THat is a lot of bureaucracy to navigate. ANd of course the ACLU is always inspiring.

As the Beatles say in the song "Getting Better..."

Paul sings, "I've got to admit it's getting better, better
It's a little better all the time"

John responds, "It can't get no worse"

I feel like John lately...it can't get no worse!
