Summary
Trump is planning a $92 million military parade on June 14, 2025—his 79th birthday, Flag Day, and the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary.
The four-mile event, from the Pentagon to the White House, revives a long-desired spectacle Trump previously canceled in 2018 over costs.
He has since overhauled military leadership, removing top Pentagon officials and replacing them with loyalists likely to support the parade.
D.C. officials, facing pressure from Trump’s federal overreach, have shown little resistance. Critics call it a vanity project amid broader concerns about authoritarian tendencies.

It drags. Even Mel said he didn’t like it. The Broadway musical was what he said it was really meant to be.
