\n When Next250 organizers began planning for America\u2019s 250th birthday, they envisioned bringing together communities in a polarized country to celebrate democracy.\n <\/p>

\n But then Donald Trump returned to office as the 47th president.\n <\/p>\n

\n Now, the left-leaning group has reframed its commemorationin response to Trump\u2019s takeover of the country\u2019s birthday. A communal festival in Washington, DC, on Saturday, for instance, will feature an indigenous opening ceremony, a march starting at what was once called Black Lives Matter Plaza and voter registration booths.\n<\/p>\n

\n In seeking to put his stamp on the 250th, Trump has upended plans that had been years in the making, thrown agencies and federal funding behind his lavish, patriotic vision and drawn ire over what has become, in critics\u2019 eyes, a partisan celebration more about the president than the country.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cIt\u2019s a lost cause to expect anything unifying and exciting coming out of Washington,\u201d said John Dichtl, president and chief executive of the American Association for State and Local History, a nonprofit that helped advise states on their 250th planning.\n <\/p>\n

\n Across the country, some state and local planners have distanced their celebrations from what\u2019s happening in the nation\u2019s capital. And in Washington, Next250 will hold its counterprogram down the street from the White House as the National Mall is being used by Trump\u2019s \u201cGreat American State Fair.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cThe administration doesn\u2019t own the 250th anniversary, nor do they own the story of this country,\u201d said Linda Sarsour, one of Next 250\u2019s organizers. The activist, known for helping to organize the Women\u2019s March on Washington during Trump\u2019s first term, has courted controversy over opposition to Israel.\n <\/p>\n

\n But on Saturday, she says, \u201cWe\u2019re coming out to say: \u2018We\u2019re all in this together, and this country belongs to all of us.\u2019\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n The first inkling of Trump\u2019s takeover of the 250th came on a Friday afternoon last December, when Trump rattled off a dizzying list of programming for the nation\u2019s birthday in a video on the president\u2019s Truth Social account.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201c2026 will be a celebration of America like no other, honoring our nation and all of its glory,\u201d he declared. \u201cTo help carry out these exciting plans, we have created a public-private partnership. It\u2019s called Freedom 250,\u201d he said.\n <\/p>\n

\n The announcement arrived a few weeks after Trump had suffered an apparent setback. The man he picked to lead America250 \u2014 a nonprofit in charge of federal 250th celebrations, overseen by a congressional panel \u2014 had just been fired.\n <\/p>\n

\n Trump\u2019s new nonprofit, Freedom 250, would ensure he got the July 4 celebrations he had long desired.\n <\/p>\n

\n The organization also wouldn\u2019t have to abide by the same rules as America250. While Freedom 250 is a non-partisan subsidiary of the National Park Foundation, its activities are largely overseen by top Trump aides.\n <\/p>\n

\n Like America250, it can maintain the anonymity of its donors, but is not overseen by a bipartisan panel. In May, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum told CNN\u2019s Dana Bash that Freedom 250 is \u201crun out of the White House\u201d and only the organization can decide to reveal its donors.\n <\/p>\n

\n But Richard Painter, a former White House ethics lawyer under President George W. Bush, said in an interview that he thought it was \u201cproblematic\u201d the White House is forging relationships with nonprofits without congressional authorization. That arrangement has raised questions from watchdog groups and congressional Democrats, who are now investigating Freedom 250\u2019s funding.\n <\/p>\n

\n A spokesperson for the National Park Foundation told CNN: \u201cpublic and private Freedom 250 funds received or expended during the current fiscal year will be accounted for through NPF\u2019s standard financial reporting and audit processes.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Freedom 250 lists about two dozen sponsors on its website. A number of these, like Palantir, Lockheed Martin and Oracle, have large federal contracts to provide data and defense services. Others, like Ultimate Fighting Championship and Penske Corp., are led by Trump allies Dana White and Roger Penske. Those have their own 250th-related events: the UFC fight on the White House lawn this month and an IndyCar race in August. White\u2019s Phorm energy drinks are also for sale at the fair.\n <\/p>\n

\n When asked whether the group would commit to publicly disclosing its donors, Freedom 250 CEO Keith Krach told CNN in an interview: \u201cWe\u2019re all about accountability and transparency.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cAn important part of my role is to make sure that we manage the books really well,\u201d he added. \u201cNot just, \u2018Hey, here you can see them,\u2019 but to make sure that we get the biggest bang for the buck.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n The Freedom 250 events have played to Trump\u2019s cultural tastes and given conservative groups a platform to shape the narrative around the celebrations \u2014 all to \u201crenew national pride.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n A fleet of six mobile museums called \u201cFreedom Trucks\u201d have traveled the country, telling a story of the American Revolution through AI art and videos that say \u201cthe foundational principles of America are rooted in the Western and Judeo-Christian traditions.\u201d The content was produced by conservative education organizations such as Hillsdale College and Prager U, which say they were not paid.\n <\/p>\n

\n In May, Freedom 250 organized a Christianity-focused prayer event on the National Mall, and the Patriot Games, a youth athletic contest where two teenaged victors will split a $250,000 prize, is also on the books for August.\n <\/p>

\n After artists, citing concerns over partisanship, bailed on performing at the opening rally for the Great American State Fair, the president instead held a rally on Wednesday, where he was the headliner. He was introduced by Lee Greenwood, a country singer whose hit \u201cGod Bless the USA\u201d is a perennial Trump favorite.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cWe are going to proclaim that America is still great, and we\u2019re going to try to keep her that way,\u201d Greenwood told CNN before the event.\n <\/p>\n

\n The main July Fourth event on the National Mall, called the \u201cSalute to America,\u201d is meant to feature a parade, military demonstrations and other activities.\n <\/p>\n

\n Trump asked Freedom 250 to put on the fireworks show that evening, and Krach vowed itwouldbe \u201cfive times bigger\u201d than DC\u2019s usual Fourth of July show, <\/strong>as they attempt to break a Guinness World Record.\n <\/p>\n

\n Freedom 250\u2019s ambitions extend beyond events in thecapital , and it has taken steps to brand itself as thenonpartisan group \u201cleading the celebration\u201d of America\u2019s birthday in the public eye, putting it in competition with America250 for the national spotlight, sponsors and taxpayer funds.\n <\/p>\n

\n Weeks after Freedom 250 launched, federal agencies began to remove America250 logos from their websites, email signatures and social media accounts. Banners featuring America250 were taken down, and the administration put money towards Freedom 250 decorations at federal buildings across the country, according to government records.\n <\/p>\n

\n And while Freedom 250 rose to prominence, America250 lost out on some federal funding.\n <\/p>\n

\n Congress has allocated $150 million for 250th celebrations this year in the \u201cOne Big Beautiful Bill Act,\u201d but America250 has only received $25 million so far. Instead, federal records show $65 million has been sent to the National Park Foundation, which can distribute the funding to Freedom 250.\n <\/p>\n

\n Sen. Lisa Murkowski, a Republican on the congressional commission, pressed Burgum during a congressional hearing about the lack of funds going towards America250 in April. He told her Interior was \u201cworking with the White House\u201d and that he would get back to her.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201cFreedom 250 is a challenge to us,\u201d said Democratic Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman, who has been on the America250 commission since 2019. Freedom 250 serves the president, \u201chis politics, his donors, and his vanity projects,\u201d but \u201cAmerica250 is focused on making sure that this is about our country, our people moving forward, and our message to the next generations,\u201d she said.\n <\/p>\n

\n Freedom 250 has repeatedly defended Trump\u2019s involvement in the celebrations and said that presidents, from Ulysses S. Grant in 1876 to Gerald Ford in 1976, have long played a role at commemorations of the nation\u2019s founding.\n <\/p>\n

\n But under Trump, the birthday celebrations have splintered.\n <\/p>\n

\n America250 has forged ahead with its plans for a nationwide service campaign and a series of July 4 events taking place across the country. It will host a concert in Los Angeles featuring high-profile performers like Chris Stapleton and the Smashing Pumpkins.\n <\/p>\n

\n An America250 spokesperson told CNN in a statement that, for those events, \u201cthe majority of support is expected to come from private sources.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n The grounds of Trump\u2019s Great American State Fair are now peppered with reminders of the states that have distanced themselves from Freedom 250. Several booths representing states that declined to send delegations sit largely empty, with sparsely decorated backdrops and a few chairs.\n <\/p>\n

\n Some states cited finances as their reasons for not participating. Planners for Oregon were concerned that the event was \u201cmore partisan affair than originally presented.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro told the New Republic that his state pulled out after his aides struggled to find a group to represent them because \u201cthe president has politicized this to a degree that businesses don\u2019t want to participate.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Meanwhile, GOP governors have touted their states\u2019 participation in the fair.\n <\/p>\n

\n Dichtl, of the American Association for State and Local History, said state and local planners were more focused on what was going on in their own communities, than in Washington, but he still fears that the overall tenor of the 250th has turned partisan. He said the 1976 bicentennial was a complicated yet \u201cunifying\u201d moment where national healing felt possible.\n <\/p>\n

\n \u201c250 does not feel that way,\u201d he said.\n <\/p>\n

\n This weekend, those in Washington will get to decide between different 250th celebrations. Some may choose to ride the towering, 110 foot-Ferris wheel or take a picture with a replica of Trump\u2019s triumphal arch. Organizers say thousands are expected to attend Next250\u2019s event, where there will be choirs and mariachi music, speeches and bracelet making.\n <\/p>\n

\n Trump has touted the 250th as \u201cthe most unforgettable birthday party any country has ever seen.\u201d\n <\/p>\n

\n Opening the Great American State Fair this week, he nodded to more ahead. \u201cOn July 4, we will have the greatest show of all on the National Mall. Your favorite president will be speaking, so please show up,\u201d he said.\n <\/p>
