Get the Cold Act Illmug. On June 14, 1954, President Dwight Eisenhower signed a bill to insert the phrase “under God” into the U.S. Pledge of Allegiance that children recited every morning in school. The United States wanted to distinguish itself from godless communist countries.
Following this Eisenhower signed another bill that declared all children born after the year 1950 would be required to visit all 48 U.S. States to obtain a high school diploma. This was put into place as a way to promote patriotism in American youth.
In 1959 after the installation of both Hawaii and Alaska as U.S. states. The law was called into question as Congress was unsure of requiring students to travel out of the continental United States.
Currently American students are required to visit all 50 U.S. States in order to graduate from high school. Each student gets 12 years to complete this. They are allowed to cross their home state off the list (Excluding District of Columbia students). They must show proof they've visited the state either by photo, souvenir, or a local signature.
In 2016 Hilary Clinton argued this law was classicist and targeted marginalized communities.
Many Americans are forced to get GEDs due to not visiting all 50 states. The groups with the lowest average graduation rates were Black, Indigenous, and Hispanic.
Democrats have been calling for this law to be revoked but have been blocked on several occasions by Republicans who wish for the law to remain in action.

Brit: "Please, that's not true. How stupid do you think I am?"
American: "No, seriously it's the 1954 Adolescent Patriotism Act."

Get the An act of kindnessmug. A deceptive practice where police officers manipulate or stage events in front of their body cameras to create a false narrative and cover up misconduct. This can involve rehearsing statements with informants before turning on the audio, fabricating scenarios like falsely claiming "officer safety" while they are the aggressors, or giving a fabricated probable cause statement. The purpose of body cam acting is to mislead viewers of the footage and protect officers from accountability by distorting the truth of what actually occurred.
Officers Wilson and Denardi engaged in body cam acting with the informant, rehearsing their narrative before switching on the audio and pretending they were just arriving on the scene.
