"No Kings" marches in all 50 states were reminiscent of some of America's biggest debates, from Vietnam to civil rights.

President Donald Trump praised the United States Army as the “greatest, fiercest and bravest fighting force” at the conclusion of a grand display of military might in the nation’s capital Saturday as the Army celebrated its 250th birthday with a parade.

Donald Trump threw a military parade in honor of the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary on Saturday, June 14 (a date that happens to be the president’s birthday) to the tune of $25 to $45 million. But unfortunately for Trump, photos and videos from the big day show sparse attendance and a lack of organization from top to bottom.

Fox News abruptly cut off its interview with Rebekah Koffler after she launched off on an incoherent tangent about Donald Trump's military parade.

The parade was the spectacle event Trump had long wanted. It also helped sparked the largest mass opposition to him since his inauguration 145 days earlier.

President Trump is hosting a parade celebrating the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army today, bringing tanks and soldiers to the streets of Washington, D.C., for the capital's first major military parade in more than three decades.

Millions of Americans are likely to tune in, whether to show bipartisan support for the troops, for Trump or just out of curiosity.

The last time the United States held a national military parade was in June 1991, timed to welcome returning veterans of the 100-day Persian Gulf War.

A minor-league football championship game will air on ABC. Fox News, CNN and C-SPAN will carry the four-hour festivities live.

Republican Senator Rand Paul says President Donald Trump’s military parade would be more at home in Soviet-era Russia.
