The U.S. Army is planning a historic parade through the streets of Washington, D.C., on June 14 that will coincide with and be part of the Army’s long-planned 250th celebration.
The parade will involve some 6,600 soldiers, tanks and infantry vehicles, helicopter flyovers and parachute jumps, according to several people familiar with the planning effort, and will also occur on Donald Trump’s 79th birthday.
The timing and White House involvement in planning efforts have stoked speculation that Trump is using the Army’s birthday as an excuse to get the kind of grand military parade he wanted during his first term in office. That event was scrapped after estimates topped $90 million.
•Military parade to celebrate your greatness as your tariffs absolutely massacre the economy, officially cementing record for the lowest first 100 days in office in 80 years
•Answering “IDK” when asked if you will uphold the constitution
• Your vice president saying “I don’t really care that much,” when asked about low approval ratings
•Your speaker of the House trying to gaslight the country into believing this is all for our own good as Walmart warns shelves will soon be empty.
•We have yet to roll out a bird flu vaccine, but we are banning some dyes in food and fluoride in drinking water…
Just stating all that to get a sense of where the red line is now? Wondering when/if the Republicans in the House and Senate will be continuing to move it as more “healthy Americans,” somehow die from making America so healthy/great or do they stop bothering. Are they hoping we all just die off from disease/fighting each other for the last remaining resources before the midterms?
Long live the regime
Krasnov will order the soldiers to goose step and wear jack boots. What a waste of taxpayer money. All the spectators will be forced to cry like a bunch of North Koreans.
Can’t spell coward without Donald J Trump.
United Banana States
No more libraries, scientific research grants, or hurricane tracking… military parades instead!
… You could easily make an entire ‘you might be a redneck / here’s your sign’ style set out of insane things Trump and MAGA do that are just laughably over the top signs they are a moronic fascist cult, and you wouldn’t even have to hyperbolize…
But of course, the audience for such a set would boo and hiss and probably threaten the life of anyone who did that Netflix special, demand they be cancelled…
Hey, maybe this will finally get U.S liberals to take the immense threat of blind nationalistic militarism in the U.S. seriously instead of just acquiescing to conservatives about everything on the topic… … …
…or it will just be a dress rehearsal for using the military to cement the Republican coup.
Rehearsal? The coup is already complete my friend. Know what the worst part is? The US voted for it.
They do know he thinks of them as suckers and losers, right?
you know the countries that do military parades like that are usually weak presidents.
Usually military parades are a dictator thing not a president.
Dictators often adopt the trappings of a democratic system and go through the motions to run sham elections.
Pathetic. Let them eat cake while we burn money on useless shit. Fuck this administration.
I presume there’s Putin, Xi and Kim called as a guest?
Come to think about it, birthday military parades are a distinctly dictator cult of personality thing to have.
Jesus fucking Christ. Disgusting. Fuck the republican traitor filth.
Don’t see how this makes my eggs any cheaper…
All of the sudden I’m realizing that in seeing Abraham tanks for over 25 years I’ve never seen a green one, only sand yellow.
Kinda makes you think about the only place the US likes to invade all the time
Why repaint the equipment with Iran on the menu.
abraham lincoln? i think you mean abrams tank.
Well its that and also a shit tonne of the storage facilities for the Abrams in particular are in California. Everything here is brown during certain times of the year, fuck even my pale ass has to be under at least a later of brown leather not to burn to shit.
