Trump’s 2018 plans for a parade of military tanks and planes down Pennsylvania Avenue NW were scuttled. But this year no one will stop him.

A summary from another source

The Washington City Paper, citing an unnamed D.C. source, reports that the president has chosen June 14, 2025—the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army, Flag Day, and coincidentally also his own 79th birthday—as the big day. If it goes ahead, the four-mile procession would go from the Pentagon in Arlington to the White House.

    DOGE is also canceling flag day and the holiday 5 days after, since they’re “too close”, and creating a new official holiday on Trump’s birthday called “Juneteenth” in the name of efficiency, as told to us by spokesperson Big Balls.
