When Trump backed a UFC rival in 2008, “Dana fucking was laughing,” one former UFC exec said. “He goes, ‘Oh yeah, I’m sure fucking Trump’s going to fucking turn that into a big success… Oh, they’ve got Oscar De La Hoya and Trump, what a brain trust.’”
Fascinating @danmadler piece on Dana White’s convenient claim Trump saved the UFC.

Last week, at a Best Western in Sioux Falls, Joe Biden kissed a woman who wasn’t his wife on the mouth.
That, and other observations about the return of the Bidens.

If I'm reading this correctly, the Kennedy Center is claiming to have conditioned all donations on keeping Trump's name attached, so removing it would mean returning all donations that have come in since they renamed the place? What on earth

BREAKING: Donald Trump just filed his emergency stay in the DC circuit to keep his name on the Kennedy Center & it is batsh** crazy

“He trades,” the Biden official said. “You tell him something and he’ll say, ‘I spoke to someone in Bibi’s government and they told me this.’ He’s more useful than other reporters, who are a one-way street.” puck.news/barak-ravids-direc…

Some attendees to expect:
- Joe Rogan, who will commentate the fight
- Several of the president's family members, including UFC-enthusiast Donald Trump Jr. & First lady Melania Trump
-Major podcasters and conservative media hosts, including the Nelk Brothers, Patrick Bet-David and The Diary of a CEO's Steve Barrett
The White House got a certain allotment of tickets for the fight, a WH official said, and Trump selected who gets to go among staff.
Nearly all Cabinet members are expected to attend.

Trump first came up with the idea to bring the UFC to the White House during his presidential transition, officials tell me
The president casually mentioned the notion while his team was brainstorming ideas on how to replicate the nontraditional things they did on the campaign trail that grabbed attention (like donning an orange vest and climbing into a garbage truck or working the fryer at a McDonald's drive-thru)
Weeks after his election victory, he went to a UFC fight at Madison Square Garden. "That's when he officially decided he wanted to do it," a White House official said. He soon brought the idea to Dana White, and then the real planning began.

Jimmy Kimmel appears to have absorbed a sizable portion of Stephen Colbert’s late night audience, while Fallon lags even further behind. It’s a further signal that we’re in a post-Johnny Carson media environment and that partisanship can be a smart business strategy.

Trump taps US attorney Jay Clayton, who days ago appeared on CNBC to baselessly speculate about fraud in the LA mayoral election, to serve as Director of National Intelligence
Jun 8
SORKIN: Do you think it helps, given where you sit in the world, to speculate about fraud without any direct evidence?
US ATTORNEY JAY CLAYTON: I'm not speculating about fraud. I'm not saying there is fraud. I'm saying that the opportunity for fraud makes no sense to me
SORKIN: The president says there was fraud

US attorney for SDNY Jay Clayton defends Trump's taxpayer-funded J6 slush fund: "I don't think we're gonna be talking about this issue in a week because the American people are gonna say, 'Look, they leaked his tax returns, they tried to destroy him. Okay, we resolved that.'"

NEW: President Trump will *not* be attending the opening World Cup match in Los Angeles on Friday, two people familiar with the plans tell me — a notable absence as the U.S. kicks off its role as co-host of the World Cup.

Earlier this week, Laura Loomer said that America might need "another 9/11" if it's going to successfully force Muslims out of our political system.
Today, she's traveling with the Pentagon in Cuba.

Not understanding how much the Epstein story is a real thing for the MAGA base but also for a lot of normie voters that carried Trump to the White House in 2024 is political malpractice
