Saturday, I attended Donald J. Trump’s parade honoring the U.S. Army’s 250th Birthday, which just so happened to coincide with Trump’s 79th birthday. Here are my thoughts about and images from what is best characterized as Trump’s Folly.

Remembering
Before Donald J. Trump’s vanity parade this past Saturday, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund held its annual In Memory Day ceremony. Rather than holding it at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall on the National Mall, VVMF was forced by the Secret Service to move the ceremony to Alexandria, Virginia. Here are my thoughts about and images from this moving remembrance.
The Money Shot
During the four days preceding Donald J. Trump’s military parade celebrating the U.S. Army’s 250th Birthday and his 79th birthday, I spent considerable time walking the streets of Washington, D.C. (when I was not on Capitol Hill advocating for Ukraine). Assuming the role of street photographer, I captured demonstrations, press conferences and other First Amendment activity. Here are my thoughts about and images of the many delights I encountered.

CCNY Protests
Are the Twenties a reprise of the Sixties? Are the Zoomers the new Boomers. While at City College of New York, I continued to think about the question that many of my peers have asked in the wake of all the ongoing demonstrations on college campuses. I offer my own answer to the question in this post, together with my images from the two hours I spend on the CCNY campus

Last week I made the pilgrimage to Columbia University, which is the epicenter of pro-Palestinian student protests. Here are my thoughts about and images from the two days I spent on campus and in the surrounding streets.
