Summary
Trump is planning a $92 million military parade on June 14, 2025—his 79th birthday, Flag Day, and the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary.
The four-mile event, from the Pentagon to the White House, revives a long-desired spectacle Trump previously canceled in 2018 over costs.
He has since overhauled military leadership, removing top Pentagon officials and replacing them with loyalists likely to support the parade.
D.C. officials, facing pressure from Trump’s federal overreach, have shown little resistance. Critics call it a vanity project amid broader concerns about authoritarian tendencies.
So, 3 months in office and we’re already going to waste over $120m for this fucking cunt to play golf on the job and stroke his ego with a military parade? At least they could fire 2,400 people in an unimportant place like the CDC to offset the costs for things that truly make America great. /s
