TLDR: Trump tried to take over the U.S. 250th anniversary celebration, mismanaged it, politicized it, and caused the associated "Freedom 250" concert series to collapse all while behaving impulsively and vindictively.
Details: Trump, being always petulant man-child, throwing his toys out of the cot, and packing a sad.
To catch people up, it celebrates the 250th year anniversary of the signing of the declaration, which happen to coincide with his
He was under the delusion it he could forcefully take over the event, dissolving the "America250" decades old committee, and creating a new committee called "Freedom 250" his birthday party by executive order.
Because of course he abused the executive order system again.
He's already built a MMA style wrestling stadium on the front lawn, with tours of the rubble of the East Wing demolition.
Note on July 4th Washington DC is rainy, and steamy hot, and full of mosquitos. Think Darwin Austalia in the rainy season. So why not build an uncovered fighting arena?
Follows on this Saturday post:
"We should have a giant MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN RALLY, for 250, instead of having overpriced singers, who nobody wants to hear, whose music is boring, and yet who do nothing but complain. Cancel it, just like I canceled my involvement with the failing and unsafe to be in Kennedy Center."
Completely off topic, Trump demolished the East Wing, without the cortersey using an Executive Order; he just ordered it. I guess he was seethig Melania turned him down for sex ... again ... and decided he'd he trash the Office of the First Lady in a Chad moment.
Can't wait till I see how well he "plans" the Cuba invasion.
Great American meltdown: Trump’s Freedom 250 concerts are collapsing while the project rakes in taxpayer dough: Independent
White House-backed concert series imploded within hours of the lineup being announced. Days later, Donald Trump was threatening to headline the events himself or cancel the whole thing outright.
His administration’s Freedom 250 project boasted “star-studded entertainment” from “legendary” artists. But by the end of the week, the president was calling them “overpriced singers” who perform “boring” music that “nobody wants to hear.”
The bizarre and very public collapse of a high-profile, publicly funded concert series to celebrate the nation’s 250th anniversary has left just four acts standing over 16 nights — raising questions about how they were even booked in the first place.
Freedom 250 — which is funded through a public-private partnership with support from Trump-aligned tech firms Palantir and Oracle and federal contractors Deloitte and Lockheed Martin, among others — was already facing scrutiny from watchdog groups and members of Congress over the use of federal dollars for Trump-aligned events.
Trump has long wanted a splashy event and even splashier Washington, D.C. for this year’s Fourth of July. Instead, what he’s getting looks more and more like it will only be a souped-up version of one of the countless MAGA rallies — with a “Jock Jams” soundtrack.
