Ten years ago, Congress created and funded a bipartisan organization, America 250, to plan and execute celebrations across the country. Those are still going on, but President Trump wanted something else.

Abby Phillip’s "NewsNight" panel debates the nature of the planned celebrations, and Kaitlan Collins goes inside the Great American State Fair on Washington’s National Mall.
