- In mid-June 2025, an image depicting a Craigslist listing that sought paid seat fillers for a military parade scheduled in Washington, D.C. on June 14 began circulating widely on social media.
- The ad, posted on June 10, offered $1,000 in cryptocurrency from Fight Fight Fight LLC and encouraged minorities to join for attendance perception at President Trump’s birthday parade.
