Workers at multiple agencies received notice that they may telework under certain conditions from Wednesday through Friday of this week, though the offer came with restrictions.

The parade, which is expected to draw 200,000 spectators to the streets of Washington, D.C., celebrates the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army but also comes on Trump’s 79th birthday, raising complaints from some that its real purpose is to embellish his strongman image. The Army says the parade will cost up to $45 million.

Protesters of the June 14 Army parade in Washington, D.C., "will be met with very big force," President Donald Trump said on June 10.

Some 200,000 spectators are expected to attend to see military aircraft and tanks on Flag Day, which is also Trump's birthday.

The Federal Aviation Administration will pause hundreds of passenger flights from Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport to accommodate President Donald Trump’s extravagant military parade on June 14.

Trump's effort to use the military to quell protests received pushback for his staff during his first administration. Now he's trying again.
