President Trump is preparing a massive military Parade to mark the birthday of the United States Army and its own birthday. The critics of the President and his authoritarian tactics are doing their answer. National “non -kings” counterprotesties will be the largest public opposition exhibition in Trump’s current administration so far.
“Defiance Day” to the whole nation but not Washington, DC
Organizers From several groups they have planned “a national day of challenge”, which they say shows the North -Americans across the country “taking measures to reject authoritarianism.” The protests match an elaborate military parade That Trump has been ready to happen in Washington, DC, on June 14, which is the 250th anniversary of the United States Army Foundation and also Trump’s 79th anniversary. The organizers have planned more than 1500 protests in all states in the United States, as well as in other territories in the United States, as well as events outside the North -American organizers have decided not to keep protests in Washington, DC, the parade site. “The choice of not holding kings events in all cities, but DC is a deliberate option to maintain the focus on the contrast and not to give the Trump administration the Stoke’s opportunity and then focus on the conflict,” said one of the event’s organizers.
Trump to spend tens of millions to pay tribute to the army and himself
Like many other critics of the event, Non Kings organizers have requested the authoritarian signs of the event. The parade has also been criticized for the cost of the event, which will include thousands of troops, many of them in historic military dresses, as well as more than 100 military vehicles, including helicopters and tanks. It is estimated that the event will cost $ 25 million and $ 45 million before considering the secret service and police expenditure or millions of dollars in street repairs that may be required after the parade.
Last in a series of anti-trump protests
The “no kings” rallies are destined to protest not only the military parade, but also the general and anti -democratic practices of the Trump administration. By doing -— they are based on others protests Since Trump took office, including “No Kings on Presidents” protests against Trump, Elon Musk, and Doge on February 17, as well as “Hands Off” protests in April against the cuts in social services and other administration policies. Less formally, protesters have recently been released in California to oppose the efforts of the ICE and other federal agents to make immigration noise, giving Trump to send to the National Guard and possibly other troops in the Los Angeles area.
The organizers provide for “non -kings” protests to be the largest mass rally against the current Trump period so far. If so, there may be millions of people in the cities of the United States, everywhere, except for the Trump rally, to show that they are against the authoritarian exercise of power that the Trump parade seems to symbolize.
