WASHINGTON (AP) President Donald Trumps Salute to America is making some radical changes to the Fourth of July festivities that Washingtonians and tourists from all around the nation and the world have come to expect.
HOW IS JULY FOURTH TYPICALLY CELEBRATED IN WASHINGTON?
Every year, marching bands, drill teams, military units, floats and giant balloons participate in a mile-long parade that stretches along Constitution Avenue. The event starts at 11:45 a.m. EDT and takes about two hours. Another tradition is the free concert on the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol that begins at 8 p.m. Then theres the fireworks display on the National Mall that attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. The fireworks begin at 9:07 p.m., weather permitting.
WHATS DIFFERENT THIS YEAR?

So Am I....I’m really excited to hear our President’s Salute to America. I understand it’s going to be a good speech of our country....... He loves and respects this country, it’s people and military!
“some are concerned”

LOL. YEAH!
I’m kinda hoping for an Aurora fly by, maybe a formation
with a load of drones.
Peace through strength, as a famous President once said.
The antifa and disruptors will be trying to start a
reaction, don’t give it to them!
Have a safe and joyous 4th.
Celebrate America and our 45th President!
When will President Trump give his speech?
If we could get the world to know these “liberals” as what they really are — ILliberals — we would score a great truth coup.
I remember well. Live in Vienna VA at the time.
Liberals are frothing at the mouth on FB referring to that M-2 shown above as a ‘tank’.
ROFL. That is a classic post here.
“All this for a flag?”
Between 6:30 and 7:30 ET.
What? You expect people to remember the history they lived through? People are just too busy with bread, circuses, and TV to bother with such disturbing memories, besides the people who write for the NYT are really knowledgeable and would not misreport or omit something like that unless it were just a myth. So it never happened, see?
I keep reading about tanks but as of yet haven’t seen a picture of a single one.
Lots of great music planned, but the MUST SEE entertainer is a young violinist/ singer/ dancer named Lindsey Stirling.
Here’s a preview:
If the military is so odious, what do leftists think will keep them free? Diversity? Because their archenemy Putin doesnt get scared off by diversity.
