How many work hours will be spent on this pointless endeavor? Is such showing of deference to unauthorized power an efficient use of taxpayer money?

Unsurprisingly, the guy who famously can't leave his damned glasses on can't read the fucking room.

This is probably the most succinct explanation, the very distilled essence, of why I've completely run out of any tolerance for this shit. The emperor is running through the streets, screaming to all who will listen that he wears no clothes, yet the people swear by his verdant robes.

"It'll all work out, you'll see," is a sentiment popular in the US only due to our privilege relative to many other parts of the world (and history). Even within the US (now, but certainly historically), that sentiment is not so believable among vulnerable populations.

Honest question, since I can't be bothered to normally follow NYC politics: what is the opinion of Adams (now) among his constituents?

When the richest man in the world is suddenly given significant control over nearly all executive agencies in the world's largest economy, yeah I'm sure his primary motivation is to *cut wasteful spending*. Sorry, you have to be really gullible or willfully blind to believe that.

Dude. We know all of this. We already have news outlets and commentators. We can also likely infer your opinion of the matter. The only information we need to hear from *you* and others in your privileged offices is *what you intend to do* about it.

Email from Nextdoor (which I haven't used in several years), subject line: "New from Karen and other neighbors in [my city]". Hmm. Think I'll pass.

If I worked at a newspaper, I’d ask why we have to keep coming up with novel phrases like “mass detention camp” to describe Trump’s plans instead of using a more familiar term.

I've had stress headaches almost every day since last Monday, even though I know (~*all of this*~) will have a far smaller negative impact on me than it will millions of others. It's completely wasted stress, too. Not like I'm doing anything constructive with it.

How the HECK is it not a nationwide scandal that Trump told federal law enforcement to divert resources away from drug trafficking and terrorism cases to instead prioritize prosecuting undocumented immigrants for living here? They screamed about fentanyl and then did this!

Reminder that "no cap" is short for "notarized by Cap'n Crunch".
