They really let a UFC fighter call our only Black First Lady a man on the White House lawn at an official White House event … while thousands cheered and the biggest podcaster in the world smiled. There is no economic policy fix for this. Many of these people are just racist.

The gathering on the National Mall on July 4 is now being called a "TRUMP RALLY." Because any moment that should be for you, America, he has to make about himself.

Of course, I am happy that the Strait of Hormuz will soon be open. That's a good outcome for the entire global economy. But the Strait was opened before the war. We did not need a war to keep it open.

🚨BREAKING: DONALD TRUMP HAS FALLEN ASLEEP AT HIS 80TH BIRTHDAY UFC FREEDOM 250 EVENT.

This is beyond ludicrous. Why the hell are U.S. Marines and soldiers saluting a UFC fighter? The military swears an oath to the Constitution, not celebrities, influencers, or the latest personality cult. Watching service members rendered as props for a UFC spectacle is beneath the dignity of the uniform and beneath the dignity of the country.

Where is @SeanDuffyWI ? Still on a road trip?

UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell criticizes Trump's White House UFC fight: Our government is desecrating its role in society by hosting sporting events. Our tax dollars and resources are funding this operation. The government is supposed to protect us, not entertain us.

“But even before we have the details, it is clear that Trump has failed to achieve every one of the goals he put forward for this war of choice, and now he is determined to sign, seal, and deliver America’s capitulation as quickly as possible” theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0…

Desecrating the place

it's notable to me that the administration tried to frame tonight's UFC event as a "gift to Americans" but you can't watch it unless you have a paid subscription to Paramount

A reminder that the charter schools Byron and his wife tried to start failed and left many families scrambling to place their children in other schools.

So Iran is not handing over its uranium, is "promising" to not acquire a nuclear bomb, and is getting $25 billion in its assets unfrozen and the oil sanctions lifted. Why did we go to war again?

Here is a compilation of Trump falling asleep over the past year. He is now 80 years old.

"The dichotomy at tonight's UFC event will be stark: a guy who lied, cheated, and stole his way through life, watching fighters who could only get to that octagon because they worked for it. There’s no shortcut through a fight. Trump's big walk-out will be from the Oval Office to the Octagon. Twenty feet, maybe thirty. I wouldn’t put money on him making it in a straight line. He’ll bask in the spotlight of an event paid for in sweat and blood that isn’t his, on a lawn that, by the league’s own estimate, will cost $700,000 to repair afterward-- money that also isn't his. A bigger man might draw a lesson from that about what it actually looks like to work for something. He’s not that. His whole legacy will be having lied to his voters that he’d help them, when the only people he’s ever looked out for are the ones in his own family."

The Trumps have not only enriched themselves to an unprecedented extent for a sitting US president and his family, but have done so through crypto deals that carried little to no downside risk for them while resulting in big losses for retail investors reut.rs/4uZf4QB

This is what happens when you give your pool boy a $14,000,000 no bid contract for stuff he’s clearly not qualified to do.

"The first trillionaire is a guy who became famous for electric cars, got richer from government contracts, bought a social media platform, spent years amplifying conspiracy theories and racial grievance, and somehow convinced millions of working class white guys that white guys are the victims."
