Anne Frank’s diary Tuesday, 11 April 1944 “You can tell by the way the men are talking that there's been a break-in! […] The color had drained from our faces, but we remained calm... Where were the men? Were they fighting with the burglars? We were too scared to think; all we could do was wait.”

Tariffs? Out of control. Prices? Skyrocketing. Emergency powers? He’s abusing them. And yet… not a single question about whether he’s even fit to serve. The math ain’t mathing.
