NATO and Biden can crush the Russian economy
From what I hear, things are pretty sucky in Russia. The economy is terrible and their vaccines don’t work. The government rushed vaccine development, skipping essential human trials. As a result, Russians don’t want anything to do with the stuff.

Why A Movement Lost Support
Police brutality, police corruption, and police “killings” of people of color have remained a steady debate for many years, with no apparent end in sight to the debate.

Like it, or not, there are predators in this world.

As someone doesn’t watch American football regularly, but almost always catches the occasional playoff game and usually the Super Bowl, I was pretty excited to learn that Super Bowl LVI would be coming to the newly built SoFi stadium in Inglewood. I’ve always wanted to attend the Super Bowl at least once out of sheer curiosity. Plus, it looks fun! The biggest party of the year, right?

Why Harriet Tubman Deserves To Be On The Twenty Dollar Bill
Since 1928, Andrew Jackson’s face has been displayed on the 20 dollar bill. It’s no surprise however, for the only people who’ve been given the honor to be placed on paper money have been white men, the only citizens of the United States not considered minorities.
