As William Kristol points out, the public is resisting Trump. But elites are not.

A new Quinnipiac poll shows him witwh a 54% disapproval rating. 64% of voters say they would prefer giving most undocumented immigrants a pathway to legal status. 56% disapprove of the way ICE is doing its job, 55% disapprove of sending National Guard troops to Los Angeles, and 60% disapprove of sending in the Marines.

"The video of Barranco’s brutal detainment has gone viral as further evidence of the brutality of Donald Trump’s immigration raids that have swept across California and other states. Videos of immigration agents roughing up immigrants, bystanders, activists, or people recording the incidents surface online every day now."

"Many of the incidents are being caught on camera by citizens, bystanders, and activists in the Los Angeles area. They show the aggressive and often inhumane tactics used by immigration agents who are concealing their identities with masks."

"The GOP’s new Homeland Security funding bill would require 'all non-detained migrants' to wear GPS tracking devices, a demoralizing 'alternative to detention' that is part of the Trump administration’s continuing immigration crackdown, according to Migrant Insider."

"Ten years ago, Jermaine Thomas was at the center of a case brought before the U.S. Supreme Court: Should a baby born to a U.S. citizen father deployed to a U.S. Army base in Germany have U.S. citizenship?

Last week, Thomas was escorted onto a plane with his wrists and ankles shackled, he says. He arrived in Jamaica, a country he’d never been to, a stateless man."

"A US citizen was arrested during an immigration raid in downtown Los Angeles this week in what her family described as a 'kidnapping' by federal immigration agents.

Andrea Velez, 32, had just been dropped off at work by her mother and sister, the pair said, when they saw agents grab her."

"This is what Trump’s mass deportations look like. Iranian Christians seeking asylum being handcuffed by masked ICE agents in front of their pastor."

"The detentions add to a growing number of church members and Christians seeking religious protection who get picked up by ICE. Often they have no apparent criminal history. In many instances, they were in the United States lawfully, complying with orders from immigration courts. ICE has traditionally not deported individuals with pending asylum petitions, who are allowed to work while their cases proceed."

"Nearly half of registered voters—49%—said [in the Quinnipiac poll] they do not think democracy is working in the United States, while 43% say it is.

What we've learned is that they will willingly usher in fascism to protect their power and privilege -- just as German elites did as Hitler rose to power.

Only 29% approve of the "big, beautiful bill."

What's wrong with elites like corporate media and Wall Street tycoons and bankers? Let's start with the word "greed." The more imperative deep structural change becomes due to unprecedented economic disparities, the more entrenched and recalcitrant they become.
