## Resource

The UFC threw a jaw-dropping $60 million spectacle on the White House South Lawn—UFC Freedom 250—designed as a Trump birthday bash, complete with fights projected on monuments, Trump-affiliated sponsors, and ads for Truth Social and Trump Coins. Dana White, a longtime Trump ally, walked out under a giant canopy with the former president, while Mark Zuckerberg and military members mingled among the crowd. Though the fights delivered title changes and notable matchups, the event was overshadowed by political theater, with even a post-fight jab at Michelle Obama. It was less about MMA and more about messaging, power, and celebration—despite Trump’s plummeting approval ratings. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
