drill down 

Term used by a worthless network news barbie or cable news bunny to describe a story's seriousness and imply the amount of resources the network will apply to its journalistic investigation.

The term is frequently used to imply that the "reporter" will get to the bottom of the story and then back to the viewers in order to feed their news rage.
studio news barbie:

"Great report Gina (news bunny on location)!"

We'll drill down into that story you're covering about Mr. and Mrs. Elephant's new baby and get back to you. Thanks.

Democratic Drill Down 

Nickname for the 2019 Impeachment Inquiry during which every last pathetic greed-driven and anti-American act will be exposed before the long-awaited ejection of Trumpadumphisass.
Many government thugs were known to be puking their guts out while awaiting their own testimonies at the televised Democratic Drill Down event since an upstate New York prison term and getting Paul Manafort or Michael Cohen as their bunkie could be on their well-heeled horizons.

Stealthie 

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.
FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
