Trump’s $45M Army Parade Overshadowed, Protesters Outnumber Attendees | “No Kings” Chants Echo in US [Video]

Trump’s $45M Army Parade Overshadowed, Protesters Outnumber Attendees | “No Kings” Chants Echo in US

President Trump’s highly anticipated 250th Army anniversary parade in Washington D.C. was meant to be a patriotic spectacle—but it fell flat. Despite tanks, military flyovers, and millions spent, the streets were shockingly under-attended. Meanwhile, tens of thousands of anti-Trump protesters flooded cities across the U.S., chanting “No Kings” and calling for his ouster. The contrast was jarring: as Trump delivered a brief 8-minute speech calling the U.S. “the hottest country,” political violence rocked Minnesota and national tensions surged. Is this a celebration—or a country in crisis? #TrumpParade #NoKingsProtest #Army250 #PoliticalViolence #MinnesotaShooting #AntiTrumpProtest #WashingtonDC #MilitaryParade #TrumpNews #USPolitics Also Read Free IPL 2025 Final Live Screening for Public in Bengaluru: Check RCB vs PBKS Match Venues, Contact Details :: https://www.oneindia.com/bengaluru/free-ipl-2025-final-live-screening-for-public-in-bengaluru-check-rcb-vs-pbks-match-venues-contact-4171035.html?ref=DMDesc RCB Vs PBKS IPL 2025 Final Live Streaming: First-Time Champions Guaranteed, Here's How to Watch It Free :: https://www.oneindia.com/sports/cricket/rcb-vs-pbks-ipl-2025-final-live-streaming-first-time-champions-guaranteed-heres-how-to-watch-free-4170843.html?ref=DMDesc Sajindas Devidas Reveals How AI-Driven Nudges Are Quietly Redefining User Behavior :: https://www.oneindia.com/in-the-news/sajindas-devidas-reveals-how-ai-driven-nudges-are-quietly-redefining-user-behavior-4166947.html?ref=DMDesc

‘Blood, Water Can’t Flow Together’ Indus Water Treaty To Remain In Abeyance | India- Pakistan War

In a bold statement amid rising tensions, India has decided to put the Indus Water Treaty in abeyance. Quoting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) reiterated, “Blood and water can’t flow together.” This symbolic yet significant suspension marks a sharp turn in India's diplomatic stance, highlighting deepening hostilities. The decades-old treaty, brokered in 1960, governs water sharing with Pakistan. The announcement is expected to escalate regional tensions and draw global attention. MEA emphasized the move reflects India’s evolving security priorities and strategic assertiveness. #IndusWaterTreaty #ModiSpeech #IndiaPakistan #MEA #BreakingNews #PMModi #IndiaNews #WaterPolitics #IndusTreatySuspended #BloodAndWater #ModiWarning #IndiaGeopolitics #PakistanIndiaTensions #IndiaForeignPolicy #SouthAsiaNews #DiplomacyCrisis #IndiaMEA #NationalSecurityIndia #WaterDispute #ModiLatest Also Read Pakistan Appeals, But India Stands Firm: Indus Waters Treaty to Remain Paused :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/pakistan-appeals-but-india-stands-firm-indus-waters-treaty-to-remain-paused-4153729.html?ref=DMDesc India To Keep Indus Waters Treaty Suspended Until Pakistan Ends Cross-Border Terrorism: MEA :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-to-keep-indus-waters-treaty-suspended-until-pakistan-ends-cross-border-terrorism-mea-4152251.html?ref=DMDesc India Begins Work On Hydroelectric Projects In Kashmir Amid Indus Treaty Suspension With Pakistan: Reports :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-begins-work-on-hydroelectric-projects-in-kashmir-amid-indus-treaty-suspension-with-pakistan-r-4143719.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~
