American flags, veterans, patriotism, pride in America, courage, pride, honor, strength… all the things represented by the motorcycle group known as “Rolling Thunder” who have traditionally rallied on Memorial Day in Washington DC. Unfortunately, all those adjectives are also things the intolerant leftists hate… So the Biden administration denies the group a parking permit.
WASHINGTON (7News) — The U.S. Department of Defense has denied a parking permit to the American Veterans or AmVets to stage a rallying point at the Pentagon ending a 32-year-old tradition on Memorial Day weekend for Rolling To Remember.
Now AmVets will try and secure RFK Stadium as an alternative staging area.
AmVets Executive Director Joe Chenelly tells the 7 News I-Team he received a call from the Pentagon Friday afternoon saying “A gentleman at the Pentagon told me that after careful consideration, our permit application was denied. He said considerations involved the continued spread of COVID-19 in the region and the nature of our event being that we are proposing a large gathering for an extended period of time.”
The Pentagon released a statement Friday night that read:
“Unfortunately, the department has disapproved AMVETS permit request. The department took into careful consideration all aspects of AMVETS request, to include the current Health Protection Condition status on the Pentagon Reservation; substantial community transmission of COVID-19 in Arlington County, Virginia; number of Americans fully vaccinated across the nation; nature of this event with its decreased ability to maintain physical distance; and large crowds in one location for an extended period of time. This event draws national attention and participation; therefore the risk of exposure from participants from other communities extends well beyond the National Capital Region.” (read more)
Memorial Day 2020 Below:
Patriots are the enemy of Biden and the Democrats. Hard to believe the Democrats have sunk so low.
Exactly
Those photos of patriots being addressed by PresTrump are the EXACT reason their permit has been denied
So much for bringing America together!
That won’t stop our Patriots March on oh fearless ones. Victory is ours…God bless…
God does not lose ??!!! ?? ?? ?? ?? ???????❤️❤️❤️
It’s time to just defy there permits and start doing what needs to be done.
Have our fireworks at Mt. Rushmore.
Let them persecute us.
Let the american people see what there government is doing to people.
Why doesnt everyone just show up on memorial day?
I think everyone just goes.
Get as many of us there.
petty ba$tard$ all of them.
No, they are TRAITORS. I say this sadly but look at the actions of congress and most potus’ over the last 100 years. Since Wilson signed the bill creating the criminal organization known as the federal reserve, the government has continually implemented more & more unconstitutional laws and statutes, all of which are of public record.
Rolling Thunder loves the real elected POTUS Trump, and they loathe the pedophile thief installed in the WH. Same with the girlie whore.
They will rally, and they will roar into DC. My bet is that the fence goes up again, and many will be arrested for fictitious crimes.
Why not move the celebration somewhere else where Patriots are still valued? To hell with DC and the traitors infecting it.
No, just fly the rainbow flag with your American flag and you’ll be just fine ?
Bozo Joe is scared to death of this event.
Antifa are nothing but Joseph Stalin modern day Brownshirts!
