What will it take? More Latinos to have the same epiphany California Hispanics did in the 1990s thanks to Pete Wilson and the California Republican Party: that the WASPs in charge of the GOP will never give them full White Guy status.

The fate of Kilmar Abrego Garcia may help in that regard.

I'd love for more non-Latino whites to stop voting to hurt people who don't look like them, but FOX, Newsmax and the various white guy podcasts and other social media have pretty much doomed most whites without a college education.

Unions used to be able to educate the racism out of white no-college folk. But they're a shadow of their former selves, unable to compete with Joe Rogan. WI, WV and OH show what happens when non-Latino, non-college-educated whites don't see - or read, if they get them - their union emails.

Such an astute analysis, Phoenix.

Never forget that Peter Thiel managed to get dual citizenship in New Zealand at the beginning of Trump's first term. I guess he wanted a failsafe if the mob came looking.

"And this is where it gets really dark. The people who are advancing this agenda are also building their luxury bunkers and their spaceships to Mars. They don’t believe that there is a future."

They need to understand that there will be no survival for them either.

Klein views these men — who are guiding Donald Trump’s presidency — as abandoning any positive vision for our collective future, and instead retrenching in preparation for a dark, nearly end times-level social collapse, from which they and other elites emerge unscathed, and all powerful.

Billionaires = $1000 million+.
Now what about the class below: those with only * $100million+ *?

Hi Nanci Pelosi, Hillary & Bill.
