Tina and Hillary cover the Chamberlain-Kahn Act and the assassination attempt of Theodore Roosevelt.
The Chamberlain-Kahn Act was initiated to help stop the spread of sexually transmitted infections among service men. BUT instead, it led to the incarceration of thousands of women.
In 1912 former republican President Theodore Roosevelt ran for president again under the Progressive Party. BUT while on the campaign trail, he is nearly assassinated.
