I hate to rain on your delusions, but the Army had been planning an anniversary celebration for a long time. They just didn't plan on trump hijacking it and making it about him. You think it was chance that it was held on his birthday> The Army filed for the permit; they had no way of knowing trump would rain on their parade.
The anniversary might have always been planned for Flag Day.
The lifelong cowardly "bone spurs" Chickenhawk in Chief's real impact was in changing a non-mechanized historical recap and celebration into a Busby Berkeley-style North Korea clone. I guess Faux Noise has kept SoupySales ignorant of this.
Perhaps. What I'm thinking is that when the army first began planning for this, trump was not president. As for Flag Day, I thought all federal holidays fall on a Monday, which means the calendar day will change from year to year.
Meh, he doesn't need Fox News to be ignorant; I suspect he's been moderately ignorant quite some time; Fox just makes him feel better about his ignorance. Putin's thousands of internet trolls and US right wing media have combined to result in greater success than Putin ever dreamed of......foment division within the US has been his goal for decades. Mission accomplished.

Agreed. TACO DonOLD turned it into a Soviet-style parade. Expect goosestepping next year.

is not an official federal holiday. Federal law leaves it to the discretion of the president to officially proclaim the observance... The United States Army also celebrates its birthday on this date.
Could be that young DonOLD changed his birthday to June 14 to imply predestined greatness. I wouldn't put it past him.

A coalition of organizations behind the nationwide "No Kings" protests announced another day of action under the name "Good Trouble Lives On."
In a June 16 call, organizers debriefed on the events of June 14, where the American Civil Liberties Union says more than 5 million people turned out across about 2,100 communities in the U.S. The protests fell on Trump's 79th birthday and coincided with the Army's 250th anniversary parade in Washington. D.C.
" 'Where do we go from here' is a famous line from a Dr. King speech," Barbara Arnwine with Transformative Justice Coalition said on the call. "And where we go from here is July the 17th... We're going to make good trouble because good trouble lives on and we will not stop until we win: no kings, no tyrants, no despots."
White House calls 'No King's protest a 'complete and utter failure' ...
All they do is LIE and LIE.
'No Kings' organizer estimates 5 million participants nationwide
... “(Saturday's) protests are a resounding message that people across the nation will not be intimidated by President Trump’s fear tactics. Americans are brave, democracy loving people and will not sit idly by as the Trump administration feeds our Constitution into the shredder — nor will the ACLU,” ACLU chief political and advocacy officer Deirdre Schifeling said in a press release on June 14.
Ezra Levin, co-founder of one of the organizing groups, Indivisible, called it one of the largest protests in American history.
"Blue states, red states, purple states, city centers, suburbs, rural America....we have friends everywhere," he said on the June 16 call.
... The Lander incident, days out from an election and with early voting underway, dominated coverage of the race, as every other candidate defended him — and as they condemned the Trump administration for deporting migrants who’ve shown up to court for immigration hearings. Lander had been walking those migrants in and out of the building for weeks, drawing praise from his party.
New York City Comptroller and mayoral candidate Brad Lander - Antifa Hero!
... “No one is above the law, and if you lay a hand on a law enforcement officer, you will face consequences,” DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement on Lander’s arrest....
Otherwise known as the Cops Are Whiny Wimps Law.
Otoh, ICE Jackboots can manhandle anyone they want:

In March, leftist Alex Padilla stated "No one is above the law."
One of the most egregious items in Trump's "big beautiful" bill violates the Byrd rule according to the Senate parliamentarian. If not removed, the bill will require a 60 vote threshold to pass.
Restriction on Enforcement. This section limits the ability of federal courts to issue preliminary injunctions or temporary restraining orders against the federal government by requiring litigants to post a potentially enormous bond. (Section 203)

A win?
Definitely. It's one egregious provision among many. It would give DonOLD's criminal enterprise carte blanche to ignore judicial orders like the ones that have stacked by the scores.
They'll never get 60 votes as a stand-alone or kept in the BB Bill.
A group of armed federal immigration agents in Huntington Park, California, blasted their way into a family’s home Friday morning while searching for a man they accused of charging into a law enforcement vehicle, according to several media outlets.
They ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS lie.
... “This family did nothing wrong,” Huntington Park Mayor Arturo Flores told the news outlet. “They were involved in a minor traffic accident and this is the level of violence and the response that we get.”
But here’s where today’s American concentration camps differ from their 20th-century predecessors: the Trump regime isn’t trying to hide what they’re doing. They’re merchandising it. They’re selling t-shirts celebrating human suffering as if it were a sports team or a vacation destination.
The United States government is literally selling branded merchandise to celebrate putting human beings in cages surrounded by dangerous predators. This isn’t just about policy—it’s about turning cruelty into a consumer product. It’s about making the suffering of others into something you can wear to own the libs.
This commodification of human rights violations represents something uniquely American and uniquely horrifying: the gamification of genocide. Previous authoritarian regimes at least had the decency to be ashamed of their concentration camps. Trump is selling tickets to the show.
“We’d like to see them in many states. At some point, they might morph into a system,” Trump said on Tuesday.

Did you ever think you'd see such stupid ass childish shit coming from the US government in your lifetime? Absolutely no sense of professionalism. Everything is a joke. It's all giving off some major Caligula vibes.
Wonder how long before reality smashes headlong into Donald Trump's make believe fantasyland?
All a big show to make life inhospitable for anyone non-Aryan. If you can't keep 'em out with walls and guards, maybe you can scare them off from being here in the first place. And you can do it because no matter how cruel and unlawful you may be, you've got people like Supes saying "B-b-b-but they're ILLEGAL" and think that justifies anything.

Though I may disagree with prioritizing the deportation of law abiding people simply seeking a better life, I can at least see the reasoning behind not allowing unfettered illegal immigration.
But when it's made into a spectacle complete with merchandising and AI generated slop from official government accounts mocking people's suffering, it's moved into the realm of unnecessary cruelty.

No, I never thought I'd see shit like this in the US. But I also never thought a fucking moron like trump would be president. I still think it's all downhill runoff from when Obama was first elected.....the GQP began to get crazy. Then when Obama was re elected they totally lost their fucking minds. This here now is what ten years of progressive mind losing looks like. Plus, many of the idiots who "support" this stuff never had a mind to speak of, never mind to lose. So there's a lot of them that the rich fascists manipulate in ways to make them feel as if they matter. Those ciphers will never realize that their idols don't give a damn about them. Recent horn blowing by the fascists about how few border crossings there are now make me wonder why hundreds of billions of dollars are needed to put up more wall, hire more agents, etc. Looks to me like they're planning to massively escalate this type of thing. And of course, the cult will gush in awe at it all, not even realizing what they're looking at.
All they do is LIE and LIE.
