During the latest episode of The View, Ana Navarro revealed she is planning to protest with the No Kings organization on Saturday, coinciding with the President’s birthday parade.
The host is not one to hold her tongue when it comes to her views on Donald Trump, previously sending stern warnings to the businessman and “chilling messages” to the other members of his cabinet. Despite the president advising against it, she doesn’t plan to dim her vocalness on his birthday.
The ladies kicked off Friday's episode of the ABC show by discussing the controversial upcoming parade.

Sara Haines started the discussion, admitting when a “military parade” is “not what I think of when I think of the U.S".
“I think of Russia, I think of North Korea, I have these visuals of people saluting and doing things,” she confessed, referencing countries with more of an authoritarian government.
During the discussion, the five also talked about the No Kings demonstrations planning to happen across the nation on Saturday, in efforts to protest against the president and his policies, specifically the ones regarding the immigration raids.
Ana, 53, declared: “I plan to peacefully protest on Saturday. I will go to the No Kings parade protest in Miami.”
Further clarifying her intentions, she said: “I am going to go protest not because I hate my country but because I love my country.”
“I think we need to stand up and speak up fearlessly against this authoritarian who wants to militarize our cities,” she continued. “This is not normal. We, as a country, have got to lose our fear and show that we will stand up for our democratic values.”
She pointed out: “$45 million he is spending on this parade on top of the $135 million that he’s spending sending the Marines and National Guard to California.”

Ana believes the “almost $200 million” doesn’t come at the best time, especially considering the Department of Governmental Efficiency recently directed the Department of Veteran Affairs to “cancel over 800 contracts” that “supports everything” including chemotherapy treatments for veterans.
The host is outraged because of “the hypocrisy” around the purpose of the event.
“It’s the fact that we never did it as America,” she explained. “We never had these type of parades because we are the biggest military force.
“When you are the biggest, the baddest and the most powerful, you don’t need to show off.”
She urged: “Leave it for Kim Jong Un. Leave it for the dictators.”
