America prepares to mark its 250th birthday amid a fight over Trump's role

  • The United States turns 250 on July 4, and the milestone has arrived wrapped in a political dispute.
  • House Democrats have accused President Trump of turning the anniversary into a personal showcase and have questioned how a Trump-aligned organizing group has handled donations; the group and the White House call the allegations a partisan smear.
