🚨“We’re living in a moment of unprecedented tension—tension he catalyzed.” And instead of calming the crisis, Trump throws a parade for himself. You don’t bring a country together by rolling tanks down Pennsylvania Avenue.

To think, today is #FlagDay... a day to honor the flag and all it represents... And yet, today, 2 politicians & their spouses shot for politically motivated reasons & a president holding a narcissistic parade instead of using funds to help those that actually defend the flag.
