Just some North Korea shit, nothing to see here. Move along.
The article says “A source in the capital told the Washington City Paper that Trump has earmarked June 14—which is the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army—for the event.”
He can stand on a podium and wave like the Soviet leaders of old.
I yearn for that one M1 Abrams in a column of them to focus its turret on the tribune as it passes.
No need to insult and compare NK to that pathetic banana republic
They’re going to try to scramble it together last minute so newspapers can’t blast out the several hundred million dollar price tag before it goes down.
There is a standing army. Where do the costs come from? Like flyovers, it will be an exercise.
Last time they refused to release the cost breakdown, but quoted 93 million (but that one sounded smaller).
So other than expenses faced by any parade, I don’t know details. Transporting the vehicles, road prep and repair (city cost seemed like a big part of it), they might all get paid for anything not routine.
Either way, captain bonespurs can run a parade up his own ass
someone on lemmy mentioned that Trump’s economic policies are north korea’s juche and it is all shaping up that was
Yeah, the famously lavish North Korean standard of living. “Gonna feast on rat.”
My mom voted for and still defends this piece of shit. I blocked her number.
I hope you reconnect one day.
Fascists have no friends or family
Fuck off, wanker
.ee user. What a surprise
Where was he when the dead soldiers were returning last week?
Pooping his nappy on the fairway
I know it was a rhetorical question and you probably knew the answer, but he was playing golf

The draft dodger Private Bonespurs
Fuck this guy. I’d risk my career in protest of I were in the military. No way I’m going to dance like a trained monkey for some PoS like drumpf…

Methinks this may be part of the reason we’re not in the military
Nearly 90 million people didn’t vote in the 2024 USA election. If you don’t want to become an American, don’t act like onel
🇨🇦 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 GET OUT AND VOTE! 🇨🇦 🇨🇦 🇨🇦

Merde et Gras?
Just another day in the DPRK…I mean US
See something American happening in America: “What are we, a bunch of Asians?”
When there is video footage of the parade, someone needs to make a video clip that is compiled from several clips from the US, North Korean and Russian military parades and put “Entry of The Gladiators” as the background music.
If this isn’t waste, fraud, and abuse, I don’t know what is.
Military shit is never considered as such in this country.
It would be cool if no one went. Just him, Musk, and some right wing drifters on empty streets.
It be cool if the protests were so big they had to cancel the parade route
that gives him opportunity to use the tanks. :\
The people in the tanks needs to agree with him then ;)
Military personnel sell their morals to the highest bidder. They listen to the orders of their higher ups and hide behind the narrative that: “I’m just following orders” / “I don’t make the rules”.
Every so often you do get a few who are unwilling to run pwotover in tanks, or launch the nuclear missiles
Everybody knows the narrative is “I’m just following orders”
As much crap is is going on in the world right now, the US military still has some scruples. They don’t just blindly follow Trump’s orders. And especially wouldn’t just fire into their countrymen. Trump hasn’t managed to take over every institution yet. Especially the military.
Service members know how to complain and think for themselves. And if something doesn’t seem right, they will clarify the heck out of it and push back. It’s not the Russian military
Yet they will gladly shoot up farmers and whole villages in the middle east because their institution and higher ups say so as they continue to blindly believe the “we bring democracy” narrative.
If you are military in the information age, you are willfully ignorant.
That doesn’t really have much to do with domestic stuff. I mean, every military does fucked up stuff, but at the end of the day, they’re made of people and have their families. Even myself.
As a service member, I educated myself on tactics, philosophy, diplomacy, economics, culture, mental health, geography, and many other topics to understand how and why military force is used. I know it’s not for democracy à la Helldivers. It’s used to keep the trade going and to conduct politics through harder power.
You might be an isolationist and that’s fine. But don’t insult the intelligence of myself who dealt with all sorts of philosophical dilemma and educated herself and others around her
Eggs would be really handy right there.
Marbles released onto the path
Small pene energy.
Full stop.
You are just insulting other people’s bodies using this type of response instead of attacking all the things Trump is actually doing wrong.
You’re right. I should only make jokes that satisfy your personal sensibilities.
You’re part of the problem. So either Russia is paying you or you’re just kind of a dick
Thank you for your opinion. You are a distinguished gentleman and I hope you have a nice afternoon. Cheers.
Which miles will the protests be stationed on?
