As a former soldier, I'd like to point out that the USMC is probably at least 2.5 times better at drill and ceremony than nearly all US Army units (3rd Infantry excepted).

I'm curious about the logistics of this whole thing.Instead of bringing operational armored units to parade, they pulled a bunch of M1s out of storage.What units were brought in to drive them? What's up with formations walking all out of step? Why didn't they do eyes-right? Make it make sense.

They keep saying, "If you see someone you suspect of impersonating a law-enforcement officer, report it and confirm it."
Pardon my caps, but HOW THE FUCK ARE WE SUPPOSED TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE, WHEN EVEN THE SUPPOSED LEGIT ONES ARE WEARING MASKS AND WON'T SHOW CREDENTIALS?

Well, remember that under Biden, US aircraft also participated in the defense against Iranian attacks, so not really much of a policy shift there.

Remember, Trump has repeatedly stated that "health insurance" costs "$14 to $15 a month."

Some people need to look up "suburbanization" and "white flight."

Would it be useful to remind people that the VIN for vehicles is usually located on the dashboard in front of the driver and is visible through the windshield?

Again, if we thought about what an enemy of the United States holding the position of the Presidency would do, it would be this: To break the engine of the nation's scientific, technological, and economic development and the source of its overall, global hegemony. Which is what this is.
