Trump’s latest tariffs have sent the stock market tumbling and triggered warnings from economists about rising costs on everyday goods. So why is Trump willing to impose such chaos on both us and our allies? Is there a method to Trump's tariff madness? The Big Picture digs into the truth today.
From thuggish tactics used to maintain control, to crony appointments undermining the rule of law, Trump’s brand of politics mirrors the worst of fascism. As we watch, it’s clear: We can’t ignore these parallels to past dictatorships.
BREAKING - Trump just said he doubts whether France or other NATO members would help America if we needed it.
WRONG. The Article 5 mutual defense obligation has been invoked only ONCE in the 75 years of NATO.
To help America. After 9/11. And our allies answered the call.
A tweet from ununusual_whales @ununusual_whales with a breaking news headline: 'BREAKING: Business leaders are paying as much as $5,000,000 to meet one-on-one with the President Trump at his Florida compound, while others are paying $1,000,000 apiece to dine with him in a group setting, per WIRED.'
Bribes. They’re known as bribes.
BREAKING: SpaceX's Starship EXPLODES, causing FAA to halt flights at 4 major airports
The previous Starship also exploded, in January
THIS is why FAA probed SpaceX for safety
And THIS is why Musk has been trying to kill FAA - and why he should NOT get any more govt contracts
😂😅
NATO was created by the North Atlantic Treaty in 1949, approved by the Senate, 83 to 13, and signed into law.
Under the Constitution, the president must "take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed."
If Trump won't uphold the Treaty, he must be EXPELLED from office.
Federal marshals forced entry into the US African Development Foundation and escorted Musk staffers inside, after agency employees resisted their entry. Once inside, they changed the federal agency’s locks. Musk staffers were seen plugging in an external hard drive and going through everything.
According to Elon Musk's own Grok AI:
Out of Musk's 208 million Twitter followers:
-- 68 million have 0 posts and 0 followers
-- An additional 28-42 million appear to be fake
So MORE THAN HALF of Elon's followers are bots??!!?
Either that, or Grok isn't so intelligent, hmm?
Legal counsel representing federal employees is now being targeted by the Trump administration. Law firms are receiving a clear message that retaliation is possible for those advocating on behalf of individuals or groups opposing the administration’s agenda.
Trump plans to sign an executive order barring certain student loan borrowers from eligibility for Public Service Loan Forgiveness. This popular federal program forgives a portion of student debt for individuals who work in government or qualifying nonprofit jobs for ten years.
A screenshot of an X post by Jon Cryer (@mrjoncryer .bsky.social) dated March 7, 2025, commenting on the deteriorating relationship between the U.S. and Canada, blaming a "criminal president" after six weeks. The post includes a poll from Polling Canada (@canadianpolling ...) conducted by Pollara on Feb 23, 2025, with 1,506 online respondents. The poll shows support for: removing U.S. alcohol from stores (77%), retaliatory tariffs on U.S. products (75%), punishing Elon Musk by tariffing his companies/cancelling his contracts (74%), and cancelling contracts with American companies (65%).
Do you know how hard it is to anger Canadians?!?
Not often do I get the joy of waking up to a beautiful blanket of soft white snow ❄️
If Elon Musk did in the private sector what he's doing in the public sector, he would face a multi-BILLION dollar class action lawsuit for illegal breaches of data privacy and transparency.
Working on leaving meta
Isn’t she just 🥰
