  • China hit back at the U.S. with tariffs on technology, farm equipment and fashion products, Elon Musk is using a group of 18 to 24 year-old hackers for his unconstitutional government takeover, and rising prices have prompted Waffle House restaurants to enact a surcharge of 50 cents per egg.

      Jesus is coming back soon to reward both believers, and to punish the wicked.
      Read Revelation (it's not that long)
      Also, the book of Daniel;
      Which tells the compelling story of resistance unto dea#h.
      Both books give a pretty good picture of what is happening now.
      Except Jesus's free gift he offers to absolutely every human being and you can be assured his Spirit will always strive with you and in the end, you get to live in perfect peace 🕊️

    I get the cathartic need to cope with what is happening, but I hope this isn't lessening the importance of what is happening. I don't live in the states, so I can't, but you all need to be getting out there. Go to protests, call your representative, share it on social media platforms. The playbook is to overwhelm into giving it up. That is how they get away with it. YOU HAVE POWER!! Don't check out. Yes, take care of yourself, but don't give up. We can get through this, if we get through it together.

      USA deserves all these. Many citizens are clueless and just dumb about things around them. This is a country that dominates the world in terms of currency, trade, arms and ammunition and has constantly pushed their social media and entertainment down the throat of the rest of the world with all their millionaires and billionaires and pretend to be the best democracy in the world.

      I'd even say just go silent for 4 years. You're giving his lunacy a platform. Which is gold for Colbert - but it doesn't help the US that much. Every fart is aired - but sadly the stench only gets worse. Stop sharing his farts!
