Isn't antagonizing the FBI kind of a bad idea given that they're the big player (well okay the Sessions DOJ too I guess) in whether or not this administration goes down on any number of charges?

Name one smart thing Donald Trump has done since he became president. This is right in line with all his other choices.

Is there actually any practical way to get rid of billionaires?

An agreement that whenever a non-billionaire sees one they will immediately try to kill them. Once they have to rely on robotic intermediaries they'll be much less effective.

When Fox was being really antagonistic leading up to 2012 Obama's people made some vague noises about how they'd only let actual journalists attend the press gaggles/briefings. Everyone immediately said, no no no, Fox News has news in it, don't censor journalists etc. because we were still a democracy. This is Bauer limply returning the favor, and exhibiting more backbone than most of his colleagues are capable of.

They're the ones best prepared to weather the storm and come out alive. They're also the ones least likely to create civilization. One of the dudes was literally "I'm a pretty smart guy. I see myself in a leadership position, or at least an assistant. Not a slave, anyway." because of course his ideal post-apocalyptic society has slaves. The people likeliest to survive the apocalypse are the ones nobody else likes.

yeah our border is going to become even more porous if they ramp up hiring

we thought the heroin epidemic was bad now, it will be nothing compared to what it's like when we lose the ACA and Jack Dildo, rookie CBP agent, gets a $10,000 "bonus" from drug cartels to let them smuggle in tractor trailers full of heroin

Jack Dildo made the right choice, they'd have killed his husband and children otherwise. Going to be a shitload of sympathetic ICE agents who 'just miss' illegal immigrants going forward. Smart thing to do is flood the system with ringers and do what you would have done anyways only now you've got a badge and a gun. If it works for white supremacists no reason it can't work for good people.

He's not a mentally ill. He's a vigilante that kills because he saw his own family ruthlessly gunned down in front of him. Would you call Batman loving mentally ill? The same thing happened to him just in a different city.

Batman is mentally ill as gently caress, yes. This isn't even up for debate. Half of all characters reactions to Batman is "Holy poo poo, he's just a dude (who has killed multiple gods) in a costume, holy gently caress he's crazier than the guy who can literally go back in time and make it so I was traumatized as a child, holy gently caress he's scary." and the other half are too busy trying to kill the entire Universe to realize he's just some dude in a suit because the only people they interact with on a regular basis are also just dudes in suits. Batman killed entropy, with his insanity, and then killed insanity by saying, "No it's cool, I'm sane as hell". Batman is crazier than the next five craziest people put together.

I just don't think that everything can be fixed or broken in the span of 4 years. Whatever Trump does in terms of climate impact can be stopped in 4 years.

Then you think dumb thoughts. How long do you think it'll take to get a Congress amenable to the idea that the EPA should exist? How long do you think it takes things pumped into the atmosphere in the next four years to dissipate? Things that wouldn't have been pumped into the atmosphere had Trump not won. Basically, long story short, you're dumber than dirt.
