    The annual Rolling to Remember event is set to be held this weekend in the Nation’s Capital and turnout is expected to be even greater after the group was denied a permit for a staging area from the Pentagon under President Joe Biden’s leadership.

    The highly anticipated event garnered much attention over the last few months after it was reported that the Pentagon had rejected a staging permit for the annual motorcycle event over coronavirus health concerns.


    The event, formerly known as Rolling Thunder, is being organized by AMVETS, a veterans group, and is held annually each Memorial Day in Washington, DC. Organizers expect an even greater turnout now because of the attention they received after being denied the permit.

    Speaking exclusively to Breitbart News, Joe Chenelly, the national executive director of AMVETS, said that Muriel Bowser, the mayor of the District of Columbia, granted the group permission to stage at Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium.

    “We’ve built out a very robust plan, great infrastructure, so Sunday morning we will be staging at RFK stadium,” Chenelly said, noting that the event is now “expecting 100,000 bikes.”

    The Biden regime was stupid to mess with Americas veterans and try to stop this event. Because of their actions, the size of the group now coming is double the original anticipated number. I wish our vets the very best and thank them for their service.

    It will be a solemn moment to see all our veterans who attend this event remember and honor those who have fallen in battle and their friends who served. This group doing their thing was way too important to make into a political thing. Biden and pentagon top leadership should apologize to our vets for trying to mess with their event.

    That would if you are right be an average sized crowd over the decades. They are animated over the politics of what happened and pent up from not being able to go last year so I’d expect the high end number. Hopefully BLM and Antifa won’t mess with our vets there.

    You all really need to make up your mind. In one thread Biden is a dementia ridden senior that does not know what he had for breakfast and in the next he is personally involved in every decision that government makes.

    It cannot be both, pick one and run with it.

    Interestingly enough, they applied for the permit almost a year ago, why did the previous Admin not approve it?

    Viruses aren't political, no matter how hard you want them to be.

    I ride with 3 Nam vets. I'm a Nam-era vet. We all voted for Biden. None of us have ever voted for Trump. Know why? John McCain.

    Did you serve?

    I work Sunday, so it's just going to be a day trip. Nothing much happening today. Good ride, eat lunch, watch the bands, buy a t-shirt, then home by way of the veterans' cemetery in Fernley. Great White is playing Saturday...I absolutely love "Rock Me." Too bad I have to miss them.

    Age...Lol...

    Biden is the first and his appointees and staff are the latter. The pentagon approved it then withdrew the approval later.

    Breathtaking in a very solemn way.
    Indeed. So, how do we classify this bit of misinformation from the OP?

    The Biden regime was stupid to mess with Americas veterans and try to stop this event.

    Deliberate? Accidental? Ignorance? Didn't even read his own article?

    Which? Decisions, decisions...

    And I'm waiting for an answer to my question. Which cemetery are you visiting @XXJefferson#51 ?
