Last-minute court filings aim to block Trump's White House UFC event
Bud Light branding is up on the White House grounds ahead of Sunday's UFC fight (Saul Loeb/Getty)
Man, the only thing Idiocracy got wrong is the timeline.
Clue: It's somewhere behind the Monster Energy drink signage.
I thought Bud Light was woke now?
I'd boycott Bud Light, but I already avoid drinking beer that tastes like cat pee smells.
Nothing says classy like some Budweiser branding on the White House.
Now the WH needs one of those giant inflatable floppy balloon guys they put outside car dealerships and car washes.
I hope that Budweiser loses millions of dollars for supporting Trump Real talk 💙
I thought that Bud Light was "persona non grata" in MAGA world as a result of the Dylan Mulvaney social media promotion. I guess Trump and his fellow grifters will look the other way if they can profit off of Bud Light.
Trump should wear a jacket with all his corporate sponsors on it so we know who owns him. It certainly is not the people of the U.S.
Kid Rock and FOX News is going to melt down over this.
ButI thought Bud Light was WOKE?!?!
We live in such dum and corporate money times
When "woke" is marketable again and Bud does another 180 please remember this
Lol. Thought Maga was boycotting Bud Light?
Fuck Bud Light I guess.
I’m old enough remember when republicans shot beer cans as political theater and swore to never drink it again. They are all all such lying cunts, about this, about everything. If there was a god they would have all been smited, long ago. They believe in nothing, besides self enrichment.

There is no dignity left when the trash resides in the White House.
Didn't they "cancel" Bud Light?
how much did he pocket from budweiser to put that up?
This is waste fraud and abuse of our taxpayer money. Call your Republican reps! and also make a comment on Russell Vought trying to get his grubby hands on all federal grants! They want to be able to say who gets money and cancel grants anytime they want.
Some people think that when the bright lights come on at night it will attract all kinds of flying bugs. I might watch if this turns into some kind of biblical omen sponsored by Bud Light.
I thought we didn't like Bud Light cause of the trans. I just can't keep up with my MAGA anymore.
Bud light, we made a slightly positive gesture in the direction of a trans person and lost our entire bigot fan base…how do we fix it? UFC at the Whitehouse!
When the apocalypse happens, there will definitely be sponsors.
I thought MAGA didn't like Bud Light because of one Instagram posting? but that was many scandals ago.
Folks in the comments, report it anonymously to GAO FraudNet (fraud waste abuse or suspected mismanagement of federal funds can be reported at their link) www.gao.gov/about/what-g...
remember when they boycotted bud light because of "the trans"? i don't drink budweiser because it's the beer my father was addicted to when he beat my mother, so this isn't going to affect me but, if i did, i wouldn't anymore
It’s a good thing extreme cringe isn’t fatal or we’d all be 💀
I'm a beer snob. Does anyone even drink that stuff?
The White House is a disgrace.
MAGA is so fickle. They were boycotting and stacking them up and shooting them not that long ago.
Trump will probably get a cut of all sales.
I thought that the MAGAts were MAD at Bud Light?
It's a freaking trashy travelling carnival show on the now defamed WH lawn.
I just want to vomit!!!
More disgusting than their beer.
It’s got what plants crave
I remember when the White House was associated with intelligence and refinement. Now it’s a pit of idiocy and adulteration.
That’s ok. It’s not real beer anyway.
Wonder how much of a cut Trump is getting from the UFC & its sponsors for these fights. Think about it: our narcissistic sociopath, convicted felon President built an outdoor arena on the White House lawn for UFC fights!! His blatant corruption has no limits; a total shit show.
Soooooo…. bud Light is ok now or will kid rock be shooting this up?
So are we allowed to like Bud Lite again?
My, how very Presidential this all seems. Try saying it. It’s fun. Now imagine that we’ve somehow managed to get outta this mess and “Presidential” has become synonymous with “idiotic,” “stupid,” “moronic,” or “wildly incompetent.” Now apply it to the current timeline and it’s even MORE fun.
The whole damn country is for sale.
So Dylan Mulvaney promoted Bud light years ago and the right lost their shit but when the UFC does it on the white house south lawn it's ok.
Throughout the spring I took what I referred to as desecration tours around town to see what horrors had popped up like mushrooms overnight. I can’t bring myself to do it anymore. Strictly east of the river for exercise and park visits. For those who don’t know, the parks to the east are a gem.
Redneck fabulous. I guess they aren't mad about the trans thing anymore.
A true desecration of culture and american government
Making money off our house.
Which is weird because didn’t bud light have the one can with Dylan Mulvaney?! Like, wouldn’t the watchers be mad about that? I’m not sure if anyone gets my point, I’m a little high lol
Trying to class up the joint
Frost on UFC White House event: It’s a vanity project. It’s using taxpayer dollars and government resources to prop up Trump. He’s building this entire arena at the White House at a time when people can’t afford to live. Nobody has any damn money.
Praying for the Mother of all downpours...
FACTS! No one wants it either: bsky.app/profile/midd...
$700,000 to fix the lawn when it is over.
Even if someone supports the event itself, the symbolism is hard to ignore. When many Americans are worried about housing costs, healthcare, and prices, a White House spectacle sends a very different message about priorities.
Clue: It's somewhere behind the Monster Energy drink signage.
It’s a SHIT SHOW 🤬🏆
He is full of sh*t.
There is a World Cup taking place right now. Who the actual fuck is going to pay attention to a UFC fight at the White House?
All Trump cares about is Trump. He doesn't care one bit about Americans. Prove me wrong folks, I dare you.
He already built it. Why didn’t the lawsuit happen ahead of the expenses?
NEW: Another flurry of court filings in 11th hour suit to halt UFC event at White House Natl Park Service, which appears to be taking its instruction from the UFC, says there'll be filming of participants INSIDE the Lincoln Memorial And they will closing access to Memorial
OH COME ON. These people are so disrespectful.
Who gave the UFC permission to defile the Lincoln MEMORIAL? It is a solemn place of respect not a sports venue.
I truly hate this. A public memorial being closed for profit
Why are violent fighters being accompanied by children?
The Lincoln Memorial is a sacred space dedicated to our secular state religion. This is no different than an orgy in a cathedral.
Celebrating our 250th by cutting off access to one of our most famous monuments, and occluding views of the White House with fences and a ridiculous contraption that has nothing to do with our history.
Filming inside the memorial for this event is outrageous.
UFC which McMahon’s (on trial for trafficking ring boys) and trump (credibly accused of child rape and adjudicated rapist) own stock in and will be present are having children accompany fighters out of Lincoln Memorial (will trump be backstage like at teen pageants-will McMahon have access) WTAF
desecration, and i don’t generally use that term at all
Elect an asshole expect a shitshow.
DC is just another play thing for him. I hope it gets at least delayed by the courts.
Nothing says 250th anniversary celebration of the country like the nation's capital hosting a sporting event for a sport with an origin of only 30yrs ago and only became mainstream 10-15yrs ago... with the entire point of sport to bludgeon each other until KO or submission. #ThisIsAmerica
This feels like exactly the kind of moment that shows how disconnected our institutions have become from basic civic values. The Lincoln Memorial belongs to all Americans, not corporate events. We need systems that put people first again.
The Natl Park Service was also responsible for ripping up the rose garden along with Melania
He is such a fucking monster. The Lincoln Memorial will collapse with disgust.!
Please, parents, do not let your children participate. It’s inappropriate in every way.
The use of the Lincoln Memorial for the UFC event had been reported months ago...
We can’t take down traitorous confederate monuments, but they can film a fight in the Lincoln Memorial. Uncivilized, disrespectful weirdos…
John Wilkes Booth has been outdone.
Closing the Lincoln Memorial to American citizens, are you fucking serious? Really? Fascists! GFY
Why are they each with “a child”? Epstein-level grossness
Each with an "accompanying child"? WTAF??
What the actual puck?! How gross and disgusting of them to essentially defile a place that is profoundly historical and emotional for visitors. This is beyond wrong. Monuments should not be “their” playgrounds too close and abuse upon his whims.
Why are fighters walking out with children??
What’s next - a carnival, bouncy house, cotton candy stand at Arlington National? It’s disgusting
I just read this post aloud to my hubs and I highly recommend you read it aloud. Even if just to yourself, you can get the full essence of insanity in these few lines.
Having each fighter accompanied by a child throughout this political theater is so creepy
Nothing is sacred to this administration. NOTHING.
Really curious what the rest of that affidavit says because here is what the NPS website says about filming at the Lincoln Memorial (tl:dr —- any filming that is not “general visitor use” requires a permit)
What part of ‘memorial’ do they not understand?
I have seen small choirs of children rounded up and booted out, and their choir directors admonished for singing a patriotic song inside the Lincoln Memorial. They don’t even let you do that.
Marco Rubio is signing a deal with UFC to use cage fights for diplomacy Deal to be signed 2PM EDT today To be broadcast live by Fox News Why? Because Trump bought TKO stock He will profit bigly from this TKO is the parent company of the WWE and UFC nypost.com/2026/06/08/u...
Trump defiles everything he touches.
Leave it to the pedofiles to want to add children to the mix.
Photo shoot with the eternal flame coming up next.
He can cheapen anything, o respect just tacky
They are having children at a UFC fight? ffs
This place is going to take the solemn commemoration of 250 years of expanding democracy by having naked men in tight shorts (so far ok) beat each other senseless while the assembled crowd treats the Mall like carnival grounds. Bet those guards will be busy breaking up the sex in the porta potties!
It's a damn slave auction...fucking weigh-ins.
Sorry but why are they parading children in front of the Epstein client list?
This is trailer trash appalling
What about _MEMORIAL_ do REPUBLICANS not understand?
Trump is desecrating the Lincoln Memorial, turning it into a filming venue for the UFC.
This is disgusting. These people have no sense of decorum at all.
The shame and embarrassment of it all!
Desecration of the Lincoln Memorial.
This is a public MEMORIAL site not a sports venue. What is the matter with Trump & his disrespectful advisors?
You aren’t even allowed to sing in the Lincoln Memorial - I have seen small chairs of children rounded up and booted out for that.
Utterly fucking shameful. Disgraceful. Where are the patriots on the right losing their shit over this?!
Well, the party of Lincoln is good with it
What's with the child part? Whose children are they
And who's going to stop him? Guess this is all in Judge Mehta's hands now.
What other country allows a UFC event inside its memorials or presidential residence?
Is this a joke? This can’t be real life
Who actually makes the call about whether they need to evacuate from under the giant metal structure during a storm? The White House? UFC? Paramount? Freedom250?
shhh... let's see how it plays out.
Can you imagine how excited the host would be if lightning strikes?
They’re going to get tens of thousands on the White House lawn? “Tens of thousands??!” Come on! Who’s came up with that figure? The same people who said Trump who had the biggest inauguration crowd ever?!! LOL!!
One good bolt of lightning hits the Flux capacitor hidden inside, they all get zapped through time, and become someone else's problem.
And where do they evacuate to
One thing we know for sure. If anything bad happens, it will be Biden's fault
This is a great way to drain the swamp.
Maybe this guy has a plan.
This is beyond Beyond Thunderdome
I am perfectly fine with whatever calamity happens to befall Trump’s birthday UFC fight.
God will smite Trump's most faithful in a dazzling display of why we keep saying Fuck Around And Find Out.
Whoever has possession of the Sharpie
Pretty sure rugged manly alphas aren't afraid of a little lightning
Naw, just let them stay.
Let nature take its course.
The funniest thing could happen
They can shelter in place. Or stand in the reflecting pool.
Sure hope it isn't the President.
"Me, the National Safety Director."
please God, I don't ask for much...
Follow up question: where are they going to evacuate to? The east wing?
Trump will fault Nancy Pelosi.
Is a tornado too much to ask for?
Oh. I wonder what I'd have to sacrifice to Zeus...
Let them stay out there
God could do the funniest thing
Tens of thousands? Are you serious?
It would be glorious if it got rained out.
We really need the rain around here.
former Commissioner H.A. "Buster" Baldwin Kerr County, TX
Sorry to be callous, but...
And what happens when someone who is actually concerned about safety calls it, but orange man demands they continue to entertain him?
"The Vorbunker was located 1.5 m (4 ft 11 in) beneath the cellar of a large reception hall"
Could be a great opportunity to take out MAGA leadership all at once
Zeus has the opportunity to do the funniest thing ever
You just know they are waiting to bust out "this is why we need a bunker/ballroom" because there is nowhere to evacuate the people in attendance to. This entire thing is a stupid mistake and I hope it ends in disaster.
All MAGA true believers must stand firm and believe that Trump and God will protect them from these deadly bolts from the sky.
The crowd at the White House UFC fight will be one of the most diverse ever. There will be convicted felons, rapists, pedophiles, sex traffickers, domestic abusers and insurrectionists.
I read it is going to cost $64M. His pathetic birthday parade last year cost $25M. Our hard earned tax dollars. Meanwhile he doesn't have money to help those without healthcare and he cut services for those that are food insecure. He serves himself - no the American people.
Your tax DOLLARS are paying for this redneck bullshit.
And that's just the Trump family
But there will also be a thunderstorm and lightning ⚡️. May it strike more than once.
Don't forget the war criminals!
And that's just the president.
🤔 Apparently, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Adam Sandler, Jared Leto, and Mario Lopez are changing their minds about attending the UFC event now. They refuse to say why… 🧐 www.thedailybeast.com/obsessed/a-l...
Yet child support payments in arrears unites them all.
I thought people convicted of felonies weren’t allowed around other felons? 🤷🏻♀️
DEI. Dregs, Egocentric and Irrational.
Psaki on the UFC arena at the White House: "Nothing says Rome is burning like building a big, heinous coliseum to overshadow the seat of America's democratic government."
"if he gets reelected, he will destroy our nation.". And here we are.
The tackiest president ever with his children grifting off of it! While Rome burns!
it's an absolute disgrace. republicans are traitors on every level
If you don't want to be depressed, don't watch "West Wing" on how it should be run.
So true. That heinous contraption reminds me of the arcs with toys dangling from them that you use for babies lying on their back. But hey, with a toddler for president... 🤷🏼♀️
The US President is continuing an unjust, illegal war in our name today, again. That means killing people. Every war is a defeat for humanity. Where are the refusals to follow unlawful orders?
Can we get a little bread to go with the circuses?
thinking about all of the times i have seen credulous reporting quoting dana white and trump flacks saying that UFC is footing the bill for this
i hope this thing gets hit by lightning right in the middle of the event
There is always room for fuckery with these kinds of events... Is the UFC paying for the security assessment and all of the vetting that will be required for guests? Doubtful. Are they actually covering all the security costs? Almost certainly not. They just CAN'T be honest about it.
Dana White should go to jail for this.
In reply brief, Public Integrity Project attys say UFC White House cage-fighting event is a “volcano of corruption” that will “mark an inflection point in American history.” POTUS’s “allies at the UFC will profit from the first private, for-profit sporting event ever held on WH grounds.” 1/3
Project attys deny any delay in bringing their suit to block the event; say govt “concealed the true nature of the event for months" until 6/4. They sued 2 days later. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us... 2/3
The most disgusting display of greed and avarice!
AND paid for by taxpayers.
You're up quite late Mr. Parloff. What gives?
I don’t know what time this cage fight is going to take place, but this is the forecast for 6/14/26 Trump is gonna watch this crap on a TV inside the White House while everyone else suffers heat stroke.
Cowardly corrupt pendejo Marco Rubio calls the UFC arena at the bulldozed White House a gift to people. A gift would be the entire MAGA regime and their fascist Republican cultists sent to prison for treason, the UFC match is an illegal corrupt for-profit promotion of violence.
Universal healthcare would be a gift. This is a grift.
Trumpy will make millions on the UFC Scam At The White House. Many millions. How much will the rest of us make on Sunday? Will a judge be courageous enough to tell Trumpy it's illegal to have a for profit event at the White House? We can only hope, but i tend to doubt it will be stopped.
Ah, lil Marco, the chud presiding over the rape and pillage of his ancestors’ home. What a guy.
Right. 🙄 If it`s a gift to us, then why are none of us "little people" invited? I really despise these creatures.
Where's the customer service desk? I need to return a gift.
It’s not a gift when Paramount+ runs promotional advertising for the event on tv, and advertisers pay for air time. It’s corruption in plain sight and illegal use of the people’s house for private profit.
We need to make it explicitly clear to Trump and all his toadies: he may pardon you but he can't pardon you from The Hague. And if that's what we're forced to do to get justice, that's what we're going to do.
I agree with you. This is no gift to the people. cbwrong.blogspot.com/2026/06/ther...
But I love you called him pendejo! Appropriate!
A gift would be universal healthcare.
Trump wants to host a UFC cage fight on the White House lawn for his 80th birthday. A Vietnam vet and an activist are suing to stop it. His sons are already selling $12,000 coins. 👇 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trumps-whi...
Money LAUNDERING VEHICLE. LIKE shoes, phones, coins, Bibles, guitars...m Oil oligarch buys 5,000 of those, it keeps solar panels And wind farm innovation from happening through the federal government " buy a president program"
Pathetic on so many levels...why do I have a feeling this might be one of his last hurrahs?
Scenes from the UFC cage outside of the White House taken today:
I don't think I've prayed for a week of rain before.
How the rest of the world sees it:
The majesty. The grandeur. How long until the White House is hosting dog fights.
I thought Bud Light was “woke”? Bud Light’s not “woke” anymore? Who can keep track of all this??
Gladiator match presided over by Caesar
Ahhh yes, Bud Light. The pride of Belgium.
Ah, yes. The downfall and trailer trashing of America. Sponsored by Bud Light.
What's the over/under on him saying it would cost too much to dismantle it, and so it should just stay and can be used for other events?
Fingers crossed for a tornado
I am still surprised he hasn't started a shopping channel from the Oval Office yet.
I thought Bud Light was eschewed by the MMA/MAGA crowd.
Utter debasement of the people's house. 🥺 A perfect metaphor for Trump regime: crass, wasteful, grifting abomination.
Bud light. The bottom dumpster water of beers.
The trailer park moved in
The obligatory bearded bro taking a selfie in front of it
60 million bill to the U.S. taxpayer
Bud light??? After the entire situation about MAGA freaking out that a trans woman got a customized can from them? And they were freaking out in stores and destroying them? Huh???
put trump in a cage.
Sunday weather: Hazardous heat predicted For UFC first outdoor match
Hopefully one day Trump will be behind a locked cage. They should keep that cage on the White House lawn.
Defines the utter white nationalist trash that is MAGA perfectly.
George Washington would be so proud.
America has always been a shitshow since the colonizers showed up...now there's just a stage for it.
Eye roll at the Stake ads
they really built a gladiator pit. where's his throne
Trump’s reported UFC birthday spectacle says everything about his politics: loud, crude, performative, and obsessed with domination. When the people’s house becomes the fight house, democracy itself gets dragged into the cage. essayx.substack.com/p/the-ultima...
So Bud Lite is no longer woke? I'm so confused.
If I ever drank bub light I’d boycott, but I enjoy a beer with flavor.
