Fact check: Was military parade permit filed under biden on june 12 2025?

Checked on June 16, 2025

1. Summary of the results

Based on the analyses provided, no evidence was found to support the claim that a military parade permit was filed under Biden on June 12, 2025. The sources consistently indicate that none of them contain information about such a permit filing [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8].

However, the analyses reveal that military parade permits have been filed, but under different circumstances. One source mentions that Megan Powers filed a parade permit on behalf of 250America.org for a military parade on June 14 - notably for the 250th anniversary of the Army and Trump's 79th birthday, not under Biden's administration [9]. Multiple sources reference military parades planned by President Trump rather than Biden [1] [2] [3].

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

The original question lacks crucial context about the actual military parade activities occurring around this timeframe. The analyses show that there was indeed parade activity, but it was associated with Trump's military parade plans and the 250th Army anniversary celebration [2] [3] [9].

The question also omits the broader political context revealed in the sources, including conspiracy theories and misinformation campaigns targeting Biden. Sources indicate that Trump has been spreading unfounded conspiracy theories about Biden, including bizarre claims about Biden being "executed" and replaced [7] [8]. This suggests a pattern of disinformation targeting Biden's legitimacy.

Organizations like 250America.org appear to benefit from organizing military-themed events that align with Trump's political messaging, particularly timing parades to coincide with Trump's birthday celebrations [9].

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original question appears to contain embedded false premises. By asking specifically about a Biden administration permit filing on June 12, 2025, it presupposes the existence of such a filing when no evidence supports this claim across any of the analyzed sources [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8].

The question's framing may be deliberately misleading, as it occurs within a documented context of conspiracy theories and misinformation campaigns against Biden [7] [8]. The specific date reference (June 12) appears to be fabricated, as the actual parade permit was filed for June 14, and was associated with pro-Trump organizations rather than the Biden administration [9].

This type of question structure - asking for confirmation of specific but unsubstantiated claims - is a common disinformation tactic designed to plant false narratives by making them appear as legitimate inquiries requiring fact-checking.
