Is there a way to report things to DOGE? This seems like an easy cut.
Oh he’ll just sell corporate sponsorships for his little man-child parade.
Trump doesn’t give a shit about anyone but him. They just cut $55M intended to fund training for rural teachers (because who wants educated educators?) and now he wants to spend more than that on a mile long military parade celebrating his birthday. And it’s not even a milestone birthday, just a birthday.
From the article, Trump wanted to do something similar but, presumably smaller, in his first term but backed off after the price tag came to $92M. He instead opted for an event that ONLY cost $13M. How much do you think this one will cost? What will get cut to fund it?
Fucking narcissistic traitor… He’ll probably figure out how to grift a few tens of millions from this by selling tickets, too.
four-mile-long*
He won’t attend a veteran funeral in favor of going golfing, but he wants a military parade for his birthday.
Don’t show up, even to protest. He’ll just say everyone showed up for him. Let him have his audience-less parade like a retarded North Korean despot.
how about a nearby protest with the goal of gathering more people than the parade itself? that would piss him off
Would a protest that involves protesters blocking the parade from moving result in an american tiananmen square?
why would i want to stop Trump of making a fool of himself towards the civilized world? when we can troll him on the issue he cares the more about, after grifting: crowd sizes
This is the correct response.
ETA: and I strongly suspect this will happen somehow. So, his birthday is June 14th, so those who can should start making plans to be in DC around then (actual day of parade may be different, so don’t lock in specific dates until there’s more info).
Meanwhile, get ready for your local May 1st protests. (More locations will be certainly be added to that map as the day gets closer).
And until then, there are lots more opportunities to get out and protest.
A protest with signs that point out how much trump hates the military would be good.
The “Real America” protest
What if everyone lined the streets and silently faced the other direction?
That’d be OK if they all simultaneously gave him the brown eye.
We should throw our own parade someplace else. Maybe even call it the Obama parade.
JFC, what an asshole.
While a man he admits is innocent continues to sit in a prison in El Salvador
Unless he’s already dead. Which is probably, given the resistance of the Trumpist regime to getting him back.
Where is DOGE? This is like Charles Minor coming down on Michael Scott. Trump is just a huge fucking cry baby that needs constant validation. What a fucking loser.
I want the military to maliciously comply with this.
One Army solder marches by
One mile later one Marine marches by
One mile later a lone Navy sailor marches by
One mile later one USAF pilot marches by
One mile later a member of the USCG marches by.
I want them all armed to the teeth by the thousands, then halt, turn, aim, and fire.
Don’t forget Space Force!
Hey, we gave him a 5 mile parade when he only asked for a 4 mile one!
Over deliver, just like the administration. Hell could be 6 if we throw in the Salvation Army.

That’s a useless show of disrespect. People we need in place would be fired for taking over one news cycle. Worse it could kick a purge of officers into high gear by giving ammunition to conservatives that the military has “gone rogue”.
Where’s DOGE?
Slashing social security to fund this and golfing.
Cutting programs to find funds for this parade
Anywhere but here. Wouldn’t want to jeopardize the many billions in contracts that the muskrat’s companies have with the department of defense.
Sounds like a great place to do massive civil disobedience.
If enough people show up wearing all black, like it’s a funeral, and boo the entire time, my heart would swell with pride.
Next up, the goose step, with jackboots, will be used when marching past the main stage. Over $11 trillion lost and the stupid fuck wants to play army.
Parades are for weak little men. Pathetic.
