Demonstrations occurred across the United States on Saturday, June 14, as 'No Kings Day' protesters took aim at President Donald Trump's administration and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids.

Fox News abruptly cut off its interview with Rebekah Koffler after she launched off on an incoherent tangent about Donald Trump's military parade.

Donald Trump threw a military parade in honor of the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary on Saturday, June 14 (a date that happens to be the president’s birthday) to the tune of $25 to $45 million. But unfortunately for Trump, photos and videos from the big day show sparse attendance and a lack of organization from top to bottom.

President Trump is hosting a parade celebrating the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army today, bringing tanks and soldiers to the streets of Washington, D.C., for the capital's first major military parade in more than three decades.

Republican Senator Rand Paul says President Donald Trump’s military parade would be more at home in Soviet-era Russia.
