Did Hillary Clinton just throw shade at the U.S. military while sipping champagne at an elite Hamptons wedding?
On Saturday, a grand military parade in Washington, D.C., marking the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army, drew over 250,000 attendees, while Clinton’s social media critique of the event and her simultaneous attendance at a high-profile wedding sparked a firestorm of conservative backlash.
Fox News reported that the parade, held on Constitution Avenue, featured a stunning military flyover near the Washington Monument and tanks rolling through the capital, a fitting tribute to the Army’s historic milestone.
It also coincided with President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday and Flag Day, adding layers of symbolism to the event, which the administration celebrated with patriotic fervor.
Yet, while hundreds of thousands gathered to honor the military, Clinton took to X on June 15, 2025, posting side-by-side images of the parade and nationwide protests dubbed “No Kings Day.”
Her caption read, “Compare and contrast scenes from yesterday in America,” slamming the parade as a “low-energy Dear Leader” display costing taxpayers $45 million, while praising protests as a stand against monarchy.
Clinton’s Post Sparks Immediate Backlash
Conservative voices on X didn’t hold back, with Benny Johnson firing off, “This witch was a few votes away from becoming commander in chief.” His point? Clinton’s words reveal a deep disrespect for the very troops she once could have led.
Another critic added, “Utter contempt for the 250th birthday of the @USArmy,” highlighting how Clinton’s timing—criticizing a military celebration—struck a raw nerve among those who value service and sacrifice.
While Clinton restricted replies to her post, drawing further ire for dodging debate, the “No Kings Day” protests she highlighted weren’t exactly peaceful, with violence erupting in cities like Portland and Los Angeles on June 14, 2025.
Thousands marched in these demonstrations across the country, opposing not just the parade but also the administration’s deportation operations in progressive strongholds, though the chaos in some areas undercut any message of unity.
Meanwhile, where was Clinton during this national moment of celebration and contention on June 14, 2025? She was in the Hamptons, toasting at the wedding of her longtime aide Huma Abedin to Alex Soros, son of billionaire donor George Soros.
The guest list read like a Democratic who’s-who, with Bill Clinton, Chuck Schumer, Kamala Harris, Doug Emhoff, and Nancy Pelosi rubbing shoulders with Vogue’s Anna Wintour and even the Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama.
Elite Wedding Overshadows Clinton’s Critique
Boyz II Men performed, Abedin stunned in two custom dresses, and Clinton herself gave a toast, telling Vogue she was thrilled to witness “Huma and Alex’s start of their married life.”
Critics on X quipped about this “Democrat Royal Wedding,” with one asking, “How was the Soros wedding?” The irony of decrying “kings” while mingling with political and cultural royalty wasn’t lost on anyone.
Conservatives pointed out the stark contrast: Clinton blasting a military tribute while enjoying an elite gala on the same day, June 14, 2025, seemed to many like a slap in the face to those who serve.
