20:04 (00:04)โขTrump's Military Birthday Parade
โจThe newspapers report on a massive military parade in Washington D.C. celebrating the Army's 250th anniversary, which coincides with Trump's 79th birthday, featuring tanks and thousands of troops as the president speaks during the event (ABC News, Fox News, NPR, The Hill, USA Today, AP News). Critics describe the $45 million celebration as Trump using military displays to push a political agenda and celebrate his birthday (NPR, LA Times). Nationwide "No Kings" protests continue across the country in response to the parade, with thousands of demonstrators in Los Angeles and other cities protesting immigration raids and what they call authoritarian displays of power (Boston Globe, LA Times, Common Dreams, Mother Jones). Meanwhile, the manhunt intensifies for Vance Luther Boelter, the suspect in the Minnesota lawmaker assassinations, who ran a private security company with ties to the Middle East and served on a state board with one of his victims (NY Post, NYTimes, Newsweek).
