In this episode of What Was That?, I break down how Donald Trump threw himself a $45 million military birthday parade and got roasted by Gavin Newsom, global trolls, and a nationwide protest movement.What Was That?
June 14 - The Biggest Most Beautiful Day since Election Day in part because of that disastrous parade!
We had two back to back No Kings protests in Grand Rapids, Michigan! The morning started with perfect weather. Not too hot or cold and plenty of sunshine. As far as I could see, multi-generational people of many complexion were standing in solidarity to let the whole world know that we want the tRump out of our White House! Just like our April 5th (but on a much larger scale) people were of course angry about our administration from hell but the celebratory feeling that comes from uniting together brought a joy to our community. Our city was filled with flag waving children even babies to proud veterans and seniors. Not a hint of racism, no MAGAt instigators and I am sure they were there but I never noticed a single police officer.
Indivisible's event was held at Ah-Nab-Awen Park along side the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum and when it was over we marched to the 50-50-1 protest at Rosa Parks Circle. That event ended with a second march that lead many of us to Calder Plaza for lunch at the Asian Pacific Festival. From there some of us attended the Three Fires Pow Wow at Riverside Park. After dark, my family also attended the Asian Lantern Festival at John Ball Zoo.
How is that for diversity Grand Rapids!? Don't let the tRump know he may arrest us all - lol!
For me, the day ended with news that there were successful No Kings Events around the world! The icing on the cake was hearing that hardly anyone showed up in DC for the tRump's military/birthday parade. That made June 14, 2025 the Bigger Most Beautiful Day since the election! Good job American for ruining the tRump's birthday!
I understood that the $45 mil only covered one branch, the army! We may never know what the total cost was. For his own BIRTHDAY…Trump should cover any additional expenses over& above the 45 millions he can claims was all for the 250th anniversary! I’m certain we will never know how much more was spent or where it came from!
My dad was in the Navy. I pray Trump is no longer President by October when we celebrate the Navy’s anniversary!Either by impeachment or sentencing for the crimes he’s already been found guilty of. He loves being a spectacle as, “The best President ever”!So why not let him go “DOWN” in History. Problem is his VP is worse. Even Trump has had to hold him back in press conferences!
That squea-king 😂😂

We lose good people to bullying.
It’s obvious what he is because he is still around.

Yup

I thought the parade was indeed for just the Army. Navy has their 250th anniversary in October I believe .
