Smashing Pumpkins to Headline America250 Concert Series

Donald Trump's Freedom 250 concert series has been a disaster. Scheduled performers like Martina McBride, Young MC, the Commodores, Bret Michaels, and Morris Day & The Time dropped off the lineup , with Trump and country singer Lee Greenwood replacing them. Now, a new event celebrating America's 250th anniversary has entered the conversation. America250, a nonprofit group established by Congress a decade ago, will be hosting a concert in Los Angeles on July 4 with performances from the Smashing Pumpkins and Chris Stapleton.
