I'm sitting here wondering how many others got a popup trying to get them to pay for Twitter/X today (or earlier) upon logging in. Is Elon planning on forcing people to pay in the future? If so, I'll be done with this platform. Nothing here is worth paying for anyway.
At the rate Trump's taking America with wars/foreign policy, "Doomsday" may not be a comic-book character. It might be a reference to something coming that's all too REAL. DC Comics from/meets Washington DC.
It's frustrating feeling like I'm among the few people in this country sick of what's going on & FIRED UP enough to do something about it. People come out in large numbers for symbolic protests knowing FULL WELL they ain't gonna take up action to disrupt the system.
Trump promised lower prices on day one.
He lied.
Now, families are stuck paying the price for his broken promises, from the grocery aisle to the gas station. Americans deserve better than empty words while our costs keep rising.

This is the most regressive, anti-people, pro-war budget ever proposed. It is a horrifying, deeply evil document that hangs the American people out to dry and funnels all our taxpayer dollars into the pockets of arms dealers and blood profiteers.
We cannot allow it to pass.
We need a President who will truly put America First and not act at the behest of a foreign power (Israel). We all know Trump is just Netanyahu's BITCH & could care less how many soldiers die defending Tel Aviv. TRUMP = ENEMY AGENT. #TraitorTrump
Trump is so awful at his job it's as if he's being paid to do what he does. He's basically an enemy agent planted to sabotage the USA and bring its people to their knees. SCOTUS so far complicit in this scheme. #TraitorTrump#TrumpIsAConvictedFelon
The more Trump attacks Iran, the deeper he sinks America into the quagmire and there's no way out. WE THE PEOPLE pay for his reckless actions. Also the more Iran is attacked, the more likely Russia and China will be drawn deeper into this war.
Clearly Trump believes that Iran will eventually cry uncle. Thus the Trump threats again to bomb oil facilities and cripple Iran’s economy. But Iran doesn’t operate/think in the manner Trump is counting on, breaking Sun Tzu’s key admonition in art of war: “know thy enemy.”
Trump as president is like having the inmates run the prison. He needs to go NOW so America can stop being the laughingstock around the world. #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice#TrumpIsAConvictedFelon
What was the purpose of tonight's #PresidentialAddress? He sure wasn't gonna tell the American people the TRUTH about the fallout from a war HE CHOSE TO START. America's going to hell and Trump sounds like a dictator on his way out. #TrumpLoser
