He said it would drop mid July, but what if that was just disinformation and it going to happen much sooner.

Read Habakkuk - it could have been written today. He is crying to God as we are - "How long?" Yet after climbing the watchtower to see how God answers him, and listening to God who does indeed answer him, he determines that even if there is no food or flocks, he will wait on God to deliver him and judge the wicked, and will be praising God while he waits.
My take (and I am not a bible scholar) is that Habakkuk climbing the watchtower takes his misery from the micro level, to a macro level. It's as if it metaphorically raises him above his problems and puts him closer to God so that he can understand God's ways better.
I do get the urgency for justice, for normal, for truth. Being a nation divided is hard. Being on opposite sides of a position with family & friends is hard & disheartening. I pray, sometimes I cry too. I keep searching the bible and asking for guidance. Lately I find peace with the bible passages others are posting.
May God lighten your burden while enlightening your path.

Well said. You made me feel better. I definitely have moments of complete anguish. But thank God I have kids counting on me to carry on. They remind me we have to still make moments to enjoy, corny jokes, ice cream creations for their sake, and ours. It’s a strange world now, talking to your kids about not trusting the government while playing with legos.
Indeed it is a strange world. Thankfully, “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” Heb 13:8 ESV
