Trump Threatens Protesters with 'Brutal Force' Ahead of US Army Anniversary

This weekend marks the 250th anniversary of the US Army. However, the celebration is overshadowed by a statement from former President Donald Trump. In a short video circulating online, Trump warned that any protesters would be met with "a brutal force." The video, featuring Trump speaking, has Spanish subtitles. While the specific location of Trump's statement is unclear, his words are causing concern among those planning to exercise their right to protest. One commentator stated, "His words are inflammatory and could incite violence." The anniversary event is expected to draw a large crowd, and law enforcement officials are preparing for the possibility of protests. Despite the potential for unrest, organizers are hoping the celebration will proceed peacefully. The anniversary represents a significant milestone in US history. It is hoped that the event will remain a focus on the history and achievements of the US Army, rather than being overshadowed by political controversy.
