A parade in Washington, D.C., commemorating the 250th anniversary of the armed services and coinciding with the birthday of President Donald Trump, kicked off Saturday.

President Donald Trump kicked off an unprecedented military-style parade in Washington, D.C. —commemorating the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary and his 79th birthday—as millions across the country took to the streets to protest him, rallying against his expanded immigration raids and a spending bill projected to slash healthcare access for millions.

MSNBC host Chris Hayes couldn’t contain his laughter on air Friday while reading a fundraising email from President Donald Trump. The email asked for donations for his Saturday military parade, which, as it turns out, most Americans aren’t that eager to fund.

The military parade to mark the Army’s 250th anniversary and its convergence with President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday are combining to create a peacetime outlier in U.S. history. Yet it still reflects global traditions that serve a range of political and cultural purposes.
