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.
Anyone in the military that goes along with this should be removed for treason
i still think he’s just putting all of the military’s eggs in one basket so russia can kill them all with one bomb.
I think this
charadeparade is both a play to his MAGA base and a sort of loyalty test to see who in the military goes along with him.
