The content describes a large-scale event in the nation's capital, ostensibly celebrating the US Army's 250th birthday and Flag Day, but heavily intertwined with the 79th birthday of Donald J. Trump, raising questions about the event's true purpose and the use of public funds.

This past weekend, I went to our
nation's capital to join the celebration
of the 250th birthday of the US Army and
the 79th birthday of Donald J. Trump.
This was reportedly a $45 million event.
And there was family fun everywhere. I'm
talking cornhole howitzers, kids with
machine guns, kids with machine guns on
top of jeeps, kids with rocket
launchers, and the always popular killer
robot dogs. Thank you for your service.
We are here because we love America. We
are celebrating the 250th birthday of
the Army and it's Flag Day. It's the
president's birthday. Today is America's
Super Bowl. Wouldn't that be the Super
Bowl? What are you most excited to see?
Tanks. You're going to see all of our
tanks, our Bradley's, our artillery,
tanks, helicopters, howitzers. I
wouldn't mind seeing Don Jr. Okay. Yeah.
Have you ever been to an event like
this? Yes, but locals smaller scale
Moscow. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Not
like that. Who do you think is going to
do this parade better, us or the North
Koreans? I don't compare myself to
anybody because everybody in the world
would love to be an American at least
for a day. Looking around, I wondered,
was this a military celebration or more
of a make Donnie feel like a big boy
authoritarian leader party? You know,
one thing about Donald Trump, he's been
the greatest leader this country's ever
had. Is that why we're throwing him this
parade? It's not his parade. It's a
United States Army. I keep getting
confused. I keep I keep I I I keep
looking at these hats and I'm like I
There's an American There's a tiny
little American flag right there on the
side. Now I see. 50th anniversary. Now I
see. Makes me mad listening to the
people that are saying that this is all
about Donald Trump and his birthday. No,
it's not. I love Donald Trump, but
technically we are here to support our
military. Your focus today is just on
the military. Yes, sir. And that's why
you wore your dress blues. Well, I'm not
in camouflage to support the military.
I'm here to support Trump because it is
also his birthday. Was there some debate
about where to put the U? Uh, nope. Not
at all. Of course, parades come with a
price tag. But if there's one thing this
administration knows, it's what's useful
and what's waste. Trump has had to make
some cuts. Had to make some really tough
decisions. I know Doge cut back on the
Department of Education.
Cut back. Well done. Well done. The EPA.
Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. There's some
tough cuts. Cancer research. Cut it.
Let's go back to all natural. You don't
need to be researching out cancer. We
basically have that fixed anyway.
Alzheimer's research, why not? Why not
cut the Alzheimer's research? What?
That's We're just cool with that. I'm
cool with that. Are you excited about
all these Doge cuts? Yes, I am. Cuz the
government sp is stealing too much of
their money and they wasted too much of
my day on tax dollars. Oh my god.
Government waste so much money. Yes. Oh
my god. It's It's insane what they spend
money on. Just foolishness. Well, enjoy
the $45 million parade at all the tanks.
Yeah. That's a good use of your tax
dollar. I think it's important for
America to flex their muscles so people
people know that America is generous.
America is nice. America is polite. But
America can really become badass. Now,
just brainstorming here. If we want to
show the world that we're generous and
nice, wouldn't it help to do like
generous and nice things for the world?
We are already doing it. USAD more
generous and nice. We that we let people
to take advantage of us left and right.
We're so we're showing them that we're
kind by taking it away so they see how
kind we are. Absolutely. Absolutely.
Okay, I get it. Tanks are fun and our
military men and women should be
honored. But it was hard to celebrate
this public show of force when the
president put the military on the
streets of LA to confront other
Americans. How do you think we're going
to need our military? What is the
biggest threat? To be honest with you, I
see a global change right now. And if
America doesn't want to support America,
America won't be America very long. Get
on get on board. You're an American,
right? I um Which one of these tanks do
you think we should send to Los Angeles?
I think we should send all of them.
Which weapon should we send over to Los
Angeles? Oh, them clowns.
I always say Trump need to just give him
some uh some stuff to make him go to
sleep and then just handcuff him
afterwards. Okay. Rofy and then and then
car all him to jail. Is that a Pete
Hegsath plan? I don't know. But that's
my plan. Trump, if you're listening,
that's what you do. You should roofy the
Democrats. Put them all to sleep with
some sleep and stuff and then and then
lock them up. But like you said, today
isn't about that. It's about America.
America. Yeah. But at the end of the
day, Trump's parade was kind of a dud.
It didn't have the cold, intimidating
scope of other authoritarian displays.
All we had was guys holding drones like
pizzas and killer robot dogs who just
wanted treats. I got a got a sativa
gummy in here somewhere. See you at
