President Donald Trump praised the United States Army as the “greatest, fiercest and bravest fighting force” at the conclusion of a grand display of military might in the nation’s capital Saturday as the Army celebrated its 250th birthday with a parade.

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.

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.

Thousands of "No Kings Day" protests are set to be held throughout the country on Saturday to protest the Trump administration.

Nancy Wilson made it clear she is not a fan of Donald Trump, and she was not happy that her band’s hit song was used during the president’s military parade on Saturday. The rock legend did so Saturday on Instagram. Wilson shared a photo of herself wearing a hate that read, “NO KINGS BUT US,” alongside her message.
