In a new case of President Trump refusing to back down, he has threatened to use “very big force” against potential protesters as the nation’s capital gears up for a grand military parade on June 14, 2025.

Set to coincide with President Trump’s birthday and the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army’s founding, the parade promises to be a significant event.
With flyovers, historical reenactments, and military vehicles, Trump’s plans echo the grand celebrations of European WWII victories.
Yet, his pointed remarks about demonstrators have drawn substantial attention.
Labeling potential protesters as “people who hate our country,” the President’s message reveals his commitment to maintaining strict order in D.C.
The President’s statement, made from the Oval Office on June 10, signals a proactive administration ready to employ “very big force” against any disruptions.
In a move that has stirred discussion, Trump also mentioned the possibility of invoking the 1807 Insurrection Act, hinting at the deployment of active-duty military forces if necessary.
Given Trump’s track record, the warning seems sincere.
The President has shown a willingness to deploy National Guard troops without state consultation, a practice he called upon in the recent Los Angeles unrest.
Trump criticized Governor Gavin Newsom, accusing him of mishandling the situation and asserting that “Los Angeles would be burning” without federal intervention.
Trump has claimed these actions were necessary to curb what he describes as the work of “paid insurrectionists” and “paid troublemakers.”
By placing National Guard troops under federal command, he bypassed state control to ensure a rapid response.
With America250, a nonpartisan initiative, involved in the parade’s organization, the event aims to showcase the Army’s capabilities and inspire service and leadership.
Yet the threat of demonstrations looms large, particularly with ongoing protests and riots in Los Angeles related to ICE arrests.
Protests in Los Angeles have seen the deployment of National Guard troops and Marines, moves that California’s Governor Newsom condemned as a “breach of state sovereignty.”
He’s requested the Trump Administration to rescind the deployment, though the request seems unlikely to be fulfilled.

Famed for his often robust approach to dissent, President Trump has cleared the path for federal control.
His position remains steadfast amid tensions, asserting the need for order during this monumental event.
With these decisive actions, Trump reiterates his administration’s ability to enforce order, with or without state support.
