VIDEOIt's going to be a grand day in China on September 3, 2025. The Xi Jinping Removal Day Parade. As you can see, very careful preparations and rehearsals are underway for this parade.

Tuesday's episode of Morning Joe did its best to rain on yesterday's parade celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States Army. First up was MSNBC commentator Anand Giridharadas—a man who seemingly has on his mind a certain issue affecting some men.Of all the adjectives he might have chosen, Giridharadas called the parade "flaccid." This from the fellow who has selected as his signature look [see screencap] a rigidly erect hairdo.Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

VIDEOPlease fly the American flag on "No Kings" day this Saturday. Not for any reason to do with PATRIOTISM. No, this is strictly a phony show for OPTICS. We know you HATE the American flag but JUST FOR NOW please, please fly the American, not the Mexican or Palestinian, flag. JUST FOR NOW.That is the attitude of the liberal organizers (looking at YOU, Christy Walton) of the "No Kings" Day. How do I know this is their attitude? Because they SAY it out loud as you can see. They flat out admit their FAKE patriotism "JUST FOR NOW" is strictly...

I started this website in 2015 with one simple goal, which remains our Mission to this day: To print the Truth the MSM won’t tell you! That Mission remains even more relevant today than when we started, and I’ll prove it to you. This coming Saturday is going to be absolutely massive. It’s June 14th, 2025. What’s so special about June 14th? One, it’s President Trump’s birthday. Two, it’s Flag Day. (Did you know that? How perfectly poetic!) Three, the MSM is not giving this much attention at all yet, but President Trump is hosting a MASSIVE grand military parade...

Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson 🚨BREAKING: President Trump’s D.C. military parade for the Army’s 250th will feature missiles, rocket launchers, F-22 flyovers, and 7,000 troops. 8:45 AM · Jun 7, 2025

WASHINGTON, D.C.—Ahead of Trump's planned July 4 military parade, several dozen Imperial walkers began to arrive in Washington throughout the week. The AT-ATs were dropped off by U.S. Space Force Star Destroyers just outside the city and then slowly marched toward the capital (rather than being dropped right next to their target, for some reason). Military bands solemnly played the Imperial March in honor of their arrival. Trump was seen at the White House, pointing excitedly at the looming all-terrain armored transports through an Oval Office window. "Wow, look at those guys!" he said while gleefully clapping his hands. "Do...

When a trainload of tanks, guns, and other military hardware supposedly seized from the Syrian battlefields pulled up at Kursk railway station on a cloudy afternoon this week, a jubilant crowd was there to greet it. An orchestra belted out Soviet war songs. A state-funded paramilitary youth movement performed a dance for world peace. A World War II veteran in battered shoes lauded Russia's armed forces. And officials in slick suits delivered the obligatory praise for the president and commander in chief, Vladimir Putin. "The next generation must understand that the enemy is not far away," said Acting Regional Governor...

US President Donald Trump announced on Friday that he will be visiting Paris on November 11th in honour of the centenary of the end of WWI. Trump who had planned to organise a military parade in November in Washington announced Friday that he would travel to Paris for the commemoration of the end of the First World War. The US president made the announcement on Twitter (see below) on Friday afternoon at the same as criticizing local politicians in Washington who he said were asking for too much money for the parade. "Never let anyone take you hostage!" he wrote....

A military parade requested by U.S. President Donald Trump that had been planned for November in Washington has been postponed until at least next year, the Defense Department said on Thursday. “We originally targeted November 10, 2018 for this event but have now agreed to explore opportunities in 2019,” Defense Department Spokesman Colonel Rob Manning said in a statement. A U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said it was unclear exactly what caused the postponement but the increased cost of the event had caused concern and could be one reason.

WASHINGTON (AP) — It looks like President Donald Trump is getting the military parade he wants in Washington — though he may get no tanks for the effort.A Pentagon planning memo issued Thursday and released Friday says the parade being planned for Nov. 11, Veterans Day, will “include wheeled vehicles only, no tanks — consideration must be given to minimize damage to local infrastructure.” Big, heavy tanks could tear up District of Columbia streets.But the event will “include a heavy air component at the end of the parade,” meaning lots of airplane flyovers. Older aircraft will be included as available.

A lot of people have misgivings about a military parade. They’re idiots. Why shouldn’t our military show its pride? Why shouldn’t America exhibit its strength and skill? Some Americans are acting like our citizen army is going to goose step down Main Street. They’re idiots. What’s the message here? We’re behind you 100% until you march down the street, then you’re unworthy of our attention. I think once people see our great military en force, they’ll change their mind.

Full Title: Trump wants a military parade and liberals are hysterical (just more proof it's the right thing to do) President Trump wants a parade celebrating our military and troops. It’s a great idea, and is a perfect event symbolizing the fact that America is getting back on her feet after eight years of a commander-in-chief who reveled in complaining about America and decimating our military. The hysteria the proposed parade has provoked among Democrats and leftists provides even more proof that it’s the right thing to do. Who could argue against a parade that highlights the Americans who defend...

Despite everything Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said on Wednesday following the announcement of a new two-year budget deal — unlike others — Schumer surprisingly hasn't said much on the topic of a possible military parade in Washington D.C. However, back in 2014, Schumer called for precisely what we’ll most likely see Democrats — and some Republicans — rally against in the near future, a military parade. They’ll all call the parade contrary to what a democracy should be. They’ll also try to make it almost completely about how President Trump is just trying to boost his own ego. We’ll hear...

North Korea Debuts an IRBM By joshua | 10 October 2010 | No Comments After a long wait, North Korea’s “Musudan” intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) has made its first public appearance. Described as a copy of the Soviet R-27 submarine-launched ballistic missile (a.k.a. RSM-25, a.k.a. SS-N-6, a.k.a. Serb), it has never been flight-tested in North Korea, as far as anyone knows. The missile showed up in the course of a televised military parade in Pyongyang’s Kim Il Sung square, better noted elsewhere for the joint appearance of ailing North Korean ruler Kim Jong Il and his son and successor Kim...

Russia shows military power in Soviet-style parade by Stuart Williams Fri May 8, 10:51 pm ET MOSCOW (AFP) – Russia was Saturday to show off its military might at a Red Square parade to mark its victory in World War II, in the latest revival of a Soviet-era tradition amid renewed tensions with NATO. Ten thousand soldiers and 100 key items of military hardware were to be on display at the parade, which features heavy weaponry in a revival of large-scale show of power ordered by former president Vladimir Putin last year.

MOSCOW RESUMES MAY PARADES TO DEMONSTRATE MILITARY STRENGTH By Pavel Felgenhauer Thursday, January 17, 2008 Full-scale, Soviet-style military parades – with displays of tanks and other military hardware – will return to Red Square beginning May 9. The decision to resume this public display of military might was reportedly taken at a January 12 meeting of top Russian military leaders. The new Topol-M (SS-27) mobile intercontinental ballistic missiles will also roll past the reviewing stands near the Kremlin wall. The parade is timed to celebrate VE-Day, the end of the European portion of World War II (Interfax, January 15). The...
