Tanks on the National Mall and military flyovers will be part of the capital s celebration, by order of President Trump. He ll be the first president to take an active role in any July Fourth ceremony in recent memory. These flyovers cost tens of thousands of dollars per hour, though military officials say they are essentially training flights and therefore not an extra cost to taxpayers. But the National Park Service is reportedly diverting nearly $2.5 million, originally intended for parks across the country, for the celebration. "Certainly going to be more expensive than previous years. Anytime you get a presidential visit there are inherent security costs," said Mark Litterst of the National Park Service. The National Park Service said on Tuesday it was still waiting for the run of show from the White House – proof this is a show, one stage-managed by the president down to the placement of tanks and infantry vehicles and the sequence of military flyovers, reports CBS News Major Garrett. The Fourth of July is typically nonpartisan and a tribute to America s founding documents and self-government. The event is being called is called a "Salute to America" but Mr. Trump has made it clear that the military will be front and center. "We have some incredible equipment, military equipment on display – brand new. And we re very proud of it," Mr. Trump said.” Hosts: Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, Ron Perlman Cast: Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, Ron Perlman *** The Largest Online News Show in the World.
