#AnneFrank was born #OnThisDay in 1929. Through the diary she wrote while in hiding from the Nazis, Anne came to symbolize the lost promise—the dreams cut short—of child victims of the Holocaust. What might have become of this girl who was already a gifted writer? Photo: Anne Frank Fonds

I was there that day not far from where he was murdered. It was a horrifying day. And Officer Johns was, not only a victim and protector, but a lovely man who greeted us every day with a smile.
Officer Stephen Tyrone Johns died heroically #OTD in 2009 while protecting Museum visitors and staff. His memory occupies a permanent place in our hearts. ushmm.org/information/press/…

Some people have lost the plot…and a whole lot more
Meet Maine resident Laurie Dobson. She can overlook Graham Platner having a Nazi tattoo on his chest, even if it was done "by accident." But had it been an Israeli flag tattoo? That would be a dealbreaker. Suddenly, he'd be unfit for office.

Putin didn't invade Ukraine because of NATO. He invaded because Ukrainians were proving democracy works. Historian and Pulitzer Prize winner Anne Applebaum puts it plainly: Putin looked at Ukraine's democratic movement and thought, "If they can do it in Ukraine, then people could do it in Russia. So I need to crush this." That's the real threat Ukraine posed. Not missiles. Not borders. A working democracy next door. Applebaum frames the war as a fault line between the democratic and autocratic worlds. Russia isn't just trying to take territory. It's trying to erase Ukraine as a nation, reduce it to a colony, and send a message to every country that the post-1945 rules of Europe no longer apply. Those rules were simple: no invasions, no wars, borders don't change by force. Russia understood exactly what it was breaking when it crossed into Ukraine.
