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.

In a bold statement amid rising tensions, India has decided to put the Indus Water Treaty in abeyance.
