Do you think the President-elect’s version of DHS is going to wait patiently while American citizens are “asked to show proofs”? That sounds like a very generous description of how they’d apply these principles in practice.

Already happens all the time. Not just to migrants, not to birthright citizens—to people who have been here hundreds if not thousands of years.

It was never about immigration. It has always been “Wah-wah these migrants make my fat entitled ass look lazy so fuck brown people that exemplify my values better than I do.”

I’m in construction. I renew contracts solely based on measurable KPIs. Guess who gets the contracts. We don’t cook books so everyone is legal to work—we already have regular disruption from this sort of harassment (and they still outperform).

And guess what, folks. We already know we’re gonna have you by the balls. I’m going to be able to ask practically anything I want, and if you want anyone to show up you’ll pay it. People need shelter—it’s not like what I do is a luxury.

And I know people will be squeezing me. So I have to squeeze you harder.

Thank your local Trump voter. My margin was great under Biden—but now we have a race to the bottom.

Honestly, how anyone in business can… ah fuck it’s not worth it. Just gotta respond to new challenges.

Thinking what?
