Race to the 51st State: Puerto Rico vs. D.C. vs. Everywhere Else
January 20th (San Juan, Puerto Rico) – Since the time of Christopher Columbus, the island-territory now known as Puerto Rico has never been independent and free. For hundreds of years, it remained a Spanish colony until the United States “liberated” it in 1898. After that, it endured as a territory of the United States federal government despite multiple attempts to change the status quo in any number of ways. Yet, perhaps it is different this time and Puerto Rico really will finally become a State, or sail off as its own sovereign nation.

Putin Body Double
For years, rumors and conspiracy theories have been circulating about Russian President Vladimir Putin using body doubles for public appearances or to avoid assassination attempts. The most recent resurgence of this idea came in March 2021, when a video of Putin shaking hands with officials during a meeting with Belarus President Alexander Lukashenko seemed to show two different Putins with slightly different facial features and hairlines. This sparked a flurry of speculation on social media and fringe websites, with some claiming that Putin had died or been replaced by a lookalike.

Woke Parenting is Going Too Far!
Hello! Another widely debated and controversial issue coming your way! Like the past couple of articles, this one is more opinion based than others, but it will be back up with facts of course.

After Bulldozing Internationalism, President Announces "New Manifest Destiny"
January 20th (Cape Alava, WA) – Manifest Destiny. These two words elicit a strong response in the American psyche. Depending upon the person, this may bring feelings of exceptionalism; that the United States had—perhaps through divine providence—a mission to spread democratic ideals from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific, and to keep European empires out of these lands. For those people already living in the path of the expansionists, it was seen as a racist landgrab that displaced and killed millions, paving the way for a uniquely American territorial empire that denied freedoms to most and is still in existence today.

Women's Sports Are Under Attack
Some things in life should be obvious. But for some reason, very few actually are. One thing you would think we could all agree on is fairness when it comes to equality for both men and women. Well, apparently, even that has taken a strange and bizarre twist.

When Prejudiced Providers Show Their True Colors
Over the last 20 years or so, a growing number of research articles and media reports have demonstrated that racial discrimination in healthcare is a serious issue. Indeed, discrimination in the healthcare setting is a significant cause of poor quality care among visible minorities in the US, UK, Canada, and other Western countries. This is demonstrated by the shocking racial disparities in quality of care across all medical specialties, as well as the testimonies of patients and healthcare workers of color. Furthermore, the evidence points to a systemic problem, rather than just “a few bad apples.”
