A Florida lawmaker is ripping the Biden administration for ending a 30-year tradition by puling a permit that would allow a massive motorcycle Memorial Day parade down Constitution Avenue in Washington, D.C.
The gathering, which draws tens of thousands of motorcyclists from across the country each year, stages in a Pentagon parking lot, but the Biden administration has rescinded its annual permit.
“Memorial Day traditions like Rolling to Remember have been granted permits by every administration, Democrat and Republican, for the past 30 years,” said Rep. Brian Mast (R-FL). “The Biden Administration’s decision to end this Memorial Day tradition flies in the face of the freedoms that so many have died to protect,” Rep. Mast told Fox News.
“We are blessed beyond words to be citizens of the greatest country on Earth and only live free thanks to the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice. But sadly right now, in Joe Biden’s America, it is easier to cross the border illegally than it is to get a permit to pay our respects to our nation’s fallen heroes,” Mast said.
The Pentagon blamed COVID-19 for the decision.
A special events section of the Pentagon had approved AMVETS’ permit for Rolling to Remember on March 11 but then revoked it. Last month, Mast — a 12-year Army veteran who worked as a bomb disposal expert and lost both his legs while deployed in Afghanistan — wrote a letter to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin urging him to “promptly approve” the permit in April.
In his letter, Mast said the Pentagon approved the permit “only to revoke that approval a week later, citing a ‘routing error’ and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The event is being put at risk by the refusal of the Pentagon to approve the permit in a timely manner.”

the dimwitocrats cannot ever do anything worthwhile an must try to stop any person or group that does. All they know how to do from the TRAITOR-in-Chief on down is destroy. Our country cannot afford 3+ years of this lawless regiime. Convention of the states NOW.
Everything the so called democrats do now is directed toward seeking power and control. They have all been indoctrinated by socialistic communism or perhaps it is marxism. There is little difference. They admit to the socialist part. There is only one way they will ever be stopped completely whether we want to admit it or not (and it seems we do not because no one will even mention it) and that is with force. No law or talk will ever convince them their power grab will not work and get them to stop the effort. They are out to destroy this Constitutional Republic and free enterprise economic system. Their effort this time it is on multiple fronts not just one or two. They hate the fact conservatives like Donald J Trump can ever get voted into office. At this point they have gotten away with to much for us to curtail their quest with talk. Interpret that any way you want but it is fact. Perhaps at one time the democrats loved this country like the conservatives do but not now. They seek now to fundamentally transform America remember that promise? Now it is power/control they love to hell with the country. After seeing the hate in their eyes and actions toward conservatives there should be no doubt in any Americans mind of this fact regardless of political party.
How anyone who actually loves this wonderful country can vote to put these people, so called democrats, in a political office is beyond any thoughtful reasoning. A vote for a democrat is a vote to destroy this nations foundation.
They are constantly race bating because that is the way they intend to divide and conquer America. Once again that should be visible to everyone regardless of political party? It must be unless they are completely blind!
Knowledge of history should inform every American what will happen should these leaders now in control and who are communists get into complete and total power. This goes for Antifa and BLM as well as every conservative. Just look what hitler did to the brown shirts. He killed them all because they became his biggest threat because of the power they had accumulated!
There are many similarities between what happened in Europe and Asia during that bloody twentieth century and what is happening right here in America today! If you do not know your history it is time to learn it. Or repeat it.
biden/dems suck!!
