Images of tanks pulling up for a huge PARADE that NO ONE asked for that will cost money & take military personnel away from more important things at a time when Americans are being told we don’t have money for food & healthcare seems wild to me.

It’s possibly as wild as the party of States’ Rights supporting an out of control executive overbearingly & grossly attacking people in California. AGAIN, what was so bad about intelligence, grace, competency, & compassion? #DontRussiaMyUSA

BREAKING - 20,000 MISSING ANTI-Missle Drone pledged/budgeted for Ukraine.... who authorized SecDef 2send to M East? Will the 'shotdown parts' show up in Ukraine? Will these 'stolen' drones' be sent quickly to Russia? F47 could not send US troops to help Russia but did this? TREASON!
#PowerToThePeopleBeyondParades Parades of force vs. the quiet strength of the people. We choose the latter. We choose progress, not pageantry. Let's shift the focus.
Start reporting on the supreme courts. Noting judges are not taking responsibility for enforcement the constitution. They are the real ones looking the other way.
If Dems don't let you take lead on oversight I am never donating another penny to useless democrats again. Thank you for fighting for us.
Turns out, to nobody's surprise, that it's republicans who are the literal jackbooted thugs they always feared, coming to repress the people. They're flying the black helicopters too. And the 2A republican gun nuts aren't fighting to defend anybody. They make the state a tyranny, and always have.
This old lady will be out again this week. If one of those fuckers ever come near me my cane 🦯 has a taser in it. I will never ever go with them, they’ll have to kill me first. At 70 I am at peace with this. My husband is a disabled vet, I fight for him. Fuck them.
PURE TRUTH
👏👏👏👏👏👏💐🦋
She says it because she is 100% correct! Trump and his wretched and obvious racist campaign to eliminate such an important program as DEI absolutely says it all!
#Resist
I would advise you never to post something like this ever again on the internet. Do what you need to do but talking about it on the internet is dumb.
Death isn’t quite as scary when life in a dictatorship is our only option.
You deserve a follow!
Here I am, 79, and still wanting things. I WANT A TASER IN MY CANE!
Oh my god I love you. Keep it up.
Good on you ma'am. You are worth a 1000 Tango Terrorists.
I like your attitude towards these goons. I'm Canadian and I hope we never have that here and I wish my cane had a taser in it, but it doesn't and I can't see them anyway.
I’m with you, Rosa. I’m protesting next weekend with veterans in a local military parade and taking several friends. Stay safe and keep on fighting!
Excellent Rosa!
At our age, life in prison is a vacation.
The new nursing homes we can afford
OMG! This made me laugh!
Can we apply for social security from prison? If so, sounds like a deal!
I'm nearing 84.
Seriously. As I age I just don’t eat as much, not as interested in food. I’m happy just reading. We can go to old lady prison. They’ll probably let us have cats
IKR? And they will probably allow dogs too.
There are some prisons that allow cats for well behaved inmates. Cats can poop in a box, be inside, nap a lot, and be happy. I think it would be a lot harder with dogs
And your enemies now know what day to hurt you because your focus, and resources, are elsewhere
bad faith abuse of power grabbed with no mandate
Please, as one of the rising voices of the new generation of the Democratic Party, we the people are asking you and all your fellow colleagues, please unite and stand with Gov Newsome! He is trying to stop an invasion of his state and protect his constituents.
Trump is breaking the law by using the national Guard and army on the public? violating people's rights this is the new reich
The National Guard being used for domestic law enforcement is restricted under federal law per the Posse Comitatus Act (PCA). www.brennancenter.org/our-work/res...
The people who don't have any of those are very upset that people who do are successful. And their misery wants company. That being said, I'm someone who thinks happiness and joy also wants company. And I'm willing to fight for the right to make that happen.
A widely circulated Craigslist ad, which some used to claim protesters were paid, has been identified as a prank unrelated to the Los Angeles protests. False claims about paid protesters often spread around large demonstrations, especially those attracting national or international attention.
Sounds like North Korea to me.
Trump Jong Un
I am expecting No Kings Day to be the excuse for the invocation of the Insurrection Act, the suspension of Habeas Corpus, and what amounts to martial law.
Bring it on!
Question: Did the request for funds, and approval & appropriation of funds, for this parade ever go through Congress? Or did the Orange Tantrum merely demand it and everyone acquiesced?
bsky.app/profile/ange...
As usual, he pretended to be ping (pig + king) and wrote it in. That's all his tinny weeny brain can handle 🤬💩
Too late. We are now a combination of USSR (Russia died a LONG time ago) and North Korea
It was packaged in the body of a Black Asian woman. Racism and misogyny is killing our democracy.
And what are the Dems going to do about LA?!
This admin has none of the qualities
Those things are not meant for a country that kill it's own original inhabitants, you fucking moron.
Odd the ones being chased down,injured or jailed is by the ones guilty of chasing and injuring.Protesters are seasoned.They know more about what they can do than the cops who obviously want to inflict pain with illegal procedure on them.trump is temporary. He's not worth breaking law for. Cops:heed.
I don't see how this parade is going to do anything to help with the national debt. The President fancies himself and king and wants to be treated like one.
I think he has other plans for those tanks after that BS parade.
Sure hope the impeachment articles are on the way
youtu.be/Ssd3U_zicAI?...
Articles of impeachment when?
there already are articles of impeachment, they go nowhere in this GOP dominated congress
What might have happened here is a Brewster's Millions situation where, in order to get his full inheritence, Trump has to spend all of the coutry's money without telling a soul.
Or - Trump is moving military assets into DC under the guise of a parade, but to stay.
Tiananmen Square moment in US history
And imagine how the roads are going to look after those things drive on them
We're living in the Upside Down. We could have stopped this. But no, we couldn't elect the black lady.
🤦♀️
Wildly Fascist.
#Resist Pshhhht OH YEEEEAH *eye roll* "Defends the Constitution" because all of that day 1 executive order bs of her cult leader snatching away rights was SO constitutional. Don't see her saying much about "defending the constitution" these days, now do we?
She's telling on herself again
Absof'inglutely
What's good for the goose is never good for the gander.
Not with these fucking hypocrites!
The parade is for instilling fear into the population.
And that's why many will ignore this ridiculous, costly parade and take to the streets in peaceful protest. #NoKings
Ms. Crockett, what about Manitoba? #Trump is ignoring their pleas for help. Is anyone in DC trying to get aid to them? 21,000 lives are at imminent risk, trump has ignored them for days, now their airport is also gone, stranding all these lives surrounded by fire. bsky.app/profile/ange...
Imagine how much money could have gone for healthcare and food but was spent on a show of force in LA, where 2000 national guards men were called in. Soon all protests will be met with excessive military force and freedom of speech will be defeated while we all starve and die from measles.
It’s not wild, it’s fucking corrupt and disgusting.
It’s the prelude to Martial Law, or as MAGA seems to know it “Marsha Law”.
MASSIVE PROTESTS TO KEEP LAW ENFORCEMENT AND OTHERS ON THEIR TOES. REMAIN PEACEFUL AND IF SOMEONE TRYS TO START SOMETHING AVOID THEM OR BOOT THEM FROM OUR GROUPS!
And document everything
Yes, absolutely!
It's UNAMERICAN and an abomination, just like trump.
Please Jasmine, please do something you and Booker.And Hakeem, and everyone else that has morals.Please get this idiot.Out what do we need to do?We can't take this anymore he's totally insane the whole administration.This has to stop.What can we do about this
they are not for his birthday, this should terrify you
I can’t help but assume trump will use the tanks & other military forces after the parade for a hostile take over in DC.
Are we sure they are for a parade?
Are we sure this is parade and not occupation move?
What's the over/under on that hardware and personnel not leaving D.C.?
All to feed the F-ing ego of trump
And to protect him and his minions after he crosses the Rubicon. Perhaps he should let SCOTUS borrow a few of those tanks to shuttle them back and forth to work because sooner or later the American people will finally put 2+2 together and come up with SCOTUS. SCOTUS avoids calamity with a reversal.
It's wildly inappropriate. We all know the military's big & powerful. But in a time when people are starving or don't have a home or healthcare or whatever & the constant rhetoric about how poor the country is, wasting any money on a parade for trump is wrong. I'd love to see a tank or helo, but....
45m + 16m clean-up
That is wild , as wild as budgeting 300 million dollars for the felon’s golf in the big ugly bill.
It's like looking at images of north korea or the tiananmen square images.. but its America and its in 2025...
It's not for a parade. He's going to use those tanks, etc. to fortify himself inside the white house and declare himself king.
I'll be too busy protesting that day to watch TV. #NoKings
www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Koe...
😡😡😡
Dumbest parade of the century.
It’s grandiose, preposterous and somewhat sinister.
Not to mention no one gives a shit about his birthday. It is insignificant.
Hiding preparations for the complete seizure of power in plain sight.
Not "wild", a prelude for things to come, and it ain't good. People need to strap up and prepare to "stand your ground" to protect your families, neighbors, and communities. When they come, it will be to hurt you and everyone around you. THEY HAVE NO INTEREST IN FOOD & HEALTHCARE FOR "THE PEOPLE".
It’s wild to us too Miss Crockett.
a large chunk will be to repair roads after all those treaded vehicles tear up asphalt (unavoidably, due to skid-steer control) so THAT is all EXTRA unnecessary loss and waste.
Please, this not for parade purposes, it’s not vanity or ego, they are preparing to repel angry citizens.
Seems treasonous to me.
Time for the revolution to start and for RethugliCons to pay their pound of flesh
How much is it costing us to send troops to California when we don’t fucking need them?
TOTALLY WRONG AND WASTEFUL.
But those tanks will make sure no protestors will show up for the Bone Spur birthday military parade. Remember Tiananmen Square ✊
Tanks don't work well against individuals (unless they run over the protestors) in a city that isn't being actively demolished. Tanks shoot LARGE explosive shells to DESTROY BUILDINGS where resistance might hide. I don't see that happening in DC (on purpose) as that would be an eyesore for him. ✊
Imagine if the military are actually secretly planning to use those tanks to surround the Whitehouse and order the president and corrupt government to surrender and be prosecuted.
What comes to my mind is that he's setting our country up to be open for an attack by our enemies. The incompetent work of the sloppy drunk, in charge of the military will ensure this.
Is it a parade that they're planning or is it a civil war?
And he needs tanks in California... not WashingtonDC #CivilWar
Someone asked for it. Also, the US Army said no to the dictator parade tthe first time, watched him attempt an auto-coup using a white supremacist militia, then said yes the second time. And all this happened because nobody cleaned out the Pentagon after his failed auto-coup.
Americans should show up to block the parade route. Another Tiananmen Square.
Unless there’s an undisclosed other purpose…
It's not a parade. It's a Trojan Horse to facilitate bringing in military equipment for his takeover.
Seems wild to the rest of the free world too. 🤯
It is beyond the pale!
Do you believe those tanks and soldiers will leave Washington DC once the parade is over? 👀 #Dictatorship
Just another reason to not only cut, but control military spending.
It’s an abomination
It’s not just you. It’s the worst case of fraud, waste, and abuse.
I’m curious about what Senators and Representatives say about the angry phone calls and emails they get about this and other issues?
There's a more imminent misuse of money and force on the streets. I'm pleased to hear people like you stand up to this malevolent wave
Well… it’s Trump. Sickening.
Remember to post images of true American heroes on Flag Day. Let’s celebrate those who gave the US their best. This is not a day to celebrate a convicted felon.
You guys need to think two steps ahead of what is happening. You can be sure the people who are planning Trump's moves have done that. Do you really think the armament coming into Washington is for Trumps birthday and they will be leaving after the parade? They will be setting
up a fortified perimeter around the White House.
If by wild, you mean, cruel and insane, then yes, absolutely wild.
It's not an accident that he's fully militarizing DC. The violence is coming.
It just confirms that Dear Leader (and Congressional Republicans) don't give a damn about voters. But then, they never have and they never will.
Those tanks are going to stay in Washington, DC, for as long as Trump is President.
Yikes!
That’s what I’m worried about
It's BEYOND WILD...
Its on the 'what to do list' that Putin gave him.
Beyond wild. trump is completely out of control. #impeach_and_remove
JD Vance, Mike Johnson, House&Senate republicans, Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Kavanaugh, Roberts, Gorsuch, are aiding and abetting accomplices to trump’s lawlessness and should all be removed from office. Fox propaganda should lose their license.
There will be Nuremberg Trials in this country and these traitors / enablers of turning our country into a fascist autocracy will be tried and convicted
Sooner than later I hope. They’re implementing a broad voter suppression strategy. And I haven’t heard anything about what’s being done with the tariff money?
Tariff money? 🫤
How else can you start an occupation of our Capital?
Not just for a parade. They are staging heavy military equipment. Tag me if they send them back. Bet they don't.
Every democratic politician should spend the day visiting VAs to point out all that the money wasted on this parade could do to ACTUALLY HELP VETERANS!
Insane
It would be a shame if the crowd stopped the parade
It's Easy, #America! Just Don't Go! Just Don't Watch! The excuse, "I'm there to honor the Army's 250th" - Is LAME! ALL Decent #Americans - Know What's Going On Here! Every Attendee Also Knows - that Decent America Knows You Also Know. U.S. Citizens Don't Need A Gaudy Parade to Honor the #Army!
Especially the tanks. Only the Communists parade their tanks, don’t they? Why do you need to show off your tanks?
True about the parade and about troops sent to California and the southern border.
No parade. Hes planning an attack.
Yeah me too. Why am I paying for a parade that I don't want for an ass clown I can't stand & wish would just disappear.

Project 2025 and Deploying US military on US soil as law enforcement AGAINST AMERICANS Page 555 in P2025 The egregious behavior of ICE and the Federal government is a calculated move to create citizen backlash so Trump can militarize the government response That's why the blatant ICE spectacles

Is Leaky Pete texting all the details to our enemies?💣
Congress better be prepared for the possibility that the military equipment and troops won’t be leaving after the “parade”. Is the “parade” the modern day Trojan horse?
Asked the same thing earlier. Everything these monsters are doing is planned.
Because it is
It’s like having your entire Pacific fleet docked at Pearl Harbor. It’s ripe for the pickings for our enemies. And we have a lot of enemies these days.
And they have drones.
Not wild, FUCKED UP
Extremely wasteful and unnecessary cause this president should be in jail and kamala Harris our president if it was not fixed etc
@lazytato.bsky.social our girl
It's all to stroke Trump's fragile ego. He's pathetic and deplorable!
Not wild. Insane. All to satisfy the ego of Kim Dumb tRump.🤬
There will also be damages to roads, etc.
This parade only benefits Donald Trump's ego. Otherwise, its a total waste of money.
#TRUTH
6/14 TRUMPS PARADE? WELL THE WEATHER FORECAST ON THAT DATE IS LOOKING FABULOUS PRAY FOR WORSE😜
Not wild, just abundantly, remorselessly, irrevocably fucked up! 🥶🥶🥶🥶🥶🧌
And the tanks are going to destroy the road infrastructure.
A bit more than wild, Congresswoman.🙄
My gut feeling, as I watch the videos of the MASSIVE amount of tanks & weaponry rolling into DC, is that this "birthday parade" is much more than it appears to be. At the same time, protesters are literally being attacked by so-called ICE agents. This is looking like a take over to me.
It could be the perfect Trojan horse. He tried to play nice but they didn’t listen so now he’s gonna show them who the president really is. #knockonwood
You mean, who the mobster-in-chief really is.
The 34-time convicted Rapist Felon mobster-in-chief, that is 😊😉.
A moron?
History provides that this is not even close to the first time.
Our enemies will see a lot of our military personnel and equipment in one area. What are the chances the equipment and personnel are in DC to stay?
The fact they're pulling military personnel away for it should be seen as an opportunity. Because guess where they're not, anywhere else.
One can only hope (and hope is a precious commodity) that the parade is the only reason for the tanks and that they are removed from DC after this abomination of a spectacle. I don't trust this administration to not see this as a means to introduce a militarized presence into the capitol.
In 2024 a Republican congressman said “a revolution is coming and it will be bloodless if the left allows it to be”. This is not a parade. This is a military takeover of our government and our freedom.
Everyone should ignore it.
🎯💯💥!🔨
It seems criminal to me.
Are you sure it's just a parade?
The military members are probably happy they aren’t being sent to LA.
kesq.com/cnn-regional...
This Nazi regime sucks ass.
Its absolutely fuckin insane
Totally agree with that assessment 🔥
Rally a million people and stand on the parade route.
“Wild” isn’t quite the word I would use for this pathetic MF’n political situation.
He's not moving the military in for a parade. That is just a cover. He is getting ready to yry and take complete control of the federal government using military force. The times of trying to remove him through the peaceful proper channels is coming to an end.
I was going to post something like this. I don't think we're overreacting.
They're coming for you and all congressional Democrats next. Don't be acting surprised when it happens.
While the other side of the country, Trump has illegally called up troops to attack citizens.
For the “parade”. Mmkay.
When are you going to do something besides giving us a running commentary?
Seems insane to me.
Better than them being on the streets rolling over protesters. Which seems to be the other option
Agree.
ICE raids across the nation: a prelude to a week of his need to celebrate himself.
Very North Korean tactic. Appears like they’re loaded but empty promises, starving citizens.
How much time and money and resources are provided for his tantrums? Tantrum money. Serious question Someone like Katie Porter could figure it out but I think it is an important budget item Golf parade ballroom cleanup on isle 47 time spent threatening Congress
It’s absolutely disgusting. Also wondering if this is just an excuse for an invasion of DC by the taco dictator to takeover DC by military force? I’d put nothing past the orange clown.
Agreed.
Yep.
I think you hit the proverbial nail on the head. We're 1 of the most outspoken & defiant states against him, he hates he'll never win us over in any way, & a great state to start a revolution from. Won't be surprised he tries to take us out sometime soon. Just takes 1 proud boy hiding in a protest..
Bingo.
Infiltrating the peaceful protestors is one thing to look out for.
Yep. Seems that’s what’s happening
Just like they did during the protests after George Floyd was murdered.
So the draft dodger wants a military parade.
After this weekend in LA, next weekend in DC looks thousands of times worse for DJT. ❌️👑
Which Fund does the money come from ?
If they’re pulling them off of the fighting fires that’s stupid Because they’re just standing around now
Maybe don't allow criminals or mental disorders on a ballot in the first place. The insanity & abuse to all of us happening since 2015 could have been avoided. USA is a self sabotaging country run by a corrupt system. USA will never have steady progress with criminals in all branches.
It's worse than wild. It's immoral.
The military isn't being taken away from more important things. They are just going from imperialism abroad to fascism at home.
Wanna bet they start goose-stepping? 😬
I'm worried that the military presence may be used for more than just a parade.
Well, one person asked for it. The orange draft dodging concocted felon. I hope no one shows up
It’s not wild. It’s bat-shit fucking loony tunes.
Is the timing of militarized action in LA occurring while a large military presence is assembled in DC a coincidence?
And yet Kori Schake @kachake.bacy.social and @theAtlantic.com think it’s going to be fun and quite the recruiting tool! We are all so doomed. The Constitution is toast and this writer and her employer are helping usher in a Dictator bsky.app/profile/thea...
Us constituent citizens greatly out number the military and police. George Washington didn't protest peacefully. He picked up a rifle and fought against a king 🤴 and oppression. This frightens cadet bone spurs and his maga project25 white supremacy cult followers.
He's trying to distract and intimidate his own citizens by the show of tanks and military force at the advice of drunks and drug addicts like Edolf and Kegbreath. And that other coward nazi twerp miller. FAFO
But they're going to do it regardless, right? Nobody on earth can stop them from doing this stupid, wasteful, insulting thing, hm.
Waste, fraud & ABUSE!
Do we know if the parade will be their only use?
Infuriating is the word abhorrent is the word republican is the word
Dim Donny does want tanks on the streets doesn’t he. Surprised he hasn’t ordered the navy into the Potomac.
Extremely hypocritical and lacking in prioritizing skills…… this administration needs to be removed asap. This clown, his spawn & the misfits have done nothing to improve the lives of Americans. They have cost the nation $$$ plus created chaos & fear. Reprehensible!!!!!!
It's fraud, waste, and abuse.
But is it really going to be a parade? Or slowly boiling the frog of governmental Coup and military occupation of the US Capital?
Seems like the actions of a pathetic lonely old fool,desparate to pretend he is important, and not just a dried up, withered, rotting prune.
& unless the tanks are kept on the trucks, they’re gonna tear up the pavement. It’s idiotic. We also nd 2 b fearful that those troops will attack & arrest Congress, the Supreme Court & all the local federal & state courts. We nd 2 hv our own forces ready to resist or get the hell out of Dodge.🇺🇸🇨🇦🇺🇦🇫🇷🇪🇺
A friend of mine was wondering that since June 14 is a peacefully planned protest and the military tanks will be in Washington DC, does that mean that there will not be a protest in that area?
At least they're not in L.A. For now.
Trump doesn't care - he doesn't care about how much money he spends either - it is his birthday and he wants his tanks - What a sook -
Taking away fed response to these crises: 1) hurricane season and FEMA/non FEMA support 2) measles outbreaks (where?) 3) hate crime shootings of Trans women of color, or Gay men in SanAntonio TX 4) young women of color trying to leave for repro care 5) Tribal reservations being starved of food aid
💯🔥👍in 2025 the billionaires got their dictator. #ETMFR #guillotines historically just vote doesn’t fix fascism. the democracy has fallen. #andthentheycameforme anti fascist/anti rascist.we all must fight back!
Can we ask the Tienanmen Square tank man to make a guest appearance?
Your five year old President TACO needs a parade like all the other dictators.
Press elon on the pedo and election accusations. Sounds like trump is illegitimate. If so, he needs to be gone and in prison yesterday. Before he orders the military to kill citizens.
Thank you for speaking out!
Serious question: What’s to stop terrorists from targeting the parade to take out military personnel and destroy a whole bunch of tanks and other military equipment?
I don't understand who thought putting tanks on trains in long lines wasn't a risk to equipment. America has gone stupid.
I’m really shocked America hasn’t had terrorist attacks since Jan. 20th. He’s opening the doors for them.
It's Trump billion dollar ego trip
DC protestors The Real Americans will donate as many chicken suits 🐔 and taco costumes 🌮, as you need 🇺🇸🖖PROSPER
Spot on
It's WRONG and shit all seems to be being done about it.
LOL.
🍊🍄🟫- 🤭
It is all ball polishing for dear leader.
please Inpeach Donald Trump now!
Trunt's pathetic psyche needs it. He was mercilessly abused by his father. Now he needs others to fend off the internalized voice of his abusive father, and craves the approval of men he perceives as "strong", usually despots and dictators. I wish for his death daily.
Trump’s order is the first time that a president has activated a state’s National Guard without a request from that state’s governor since 1965, an expert told @nytimes.com.
Not “wild”, IRRESPONSIBLE!
Trump is attacking LA for a reaction because they know if they don’t pass the bill they don’t have the budget for ICE. vm.tiktok.com/ZNdSTfpdU/
Noem spent it already. All of it!
Welcome to your new normal. The authoritarian regime your idiot republican/MAGAt voters wanted. Owning the libs never felt so good......
I mean who is going to be along the route? He should know this is going to look bad.
He's holding it during Pride month, so maybe people should show up in their best rainbow attire.
Certainly waste and fraud for an abuser
Wild? I call it despicable.
