UFC Freedom 250 staged on White House South Lawn, Topuria vs Gaethje headlined
The White House South Lawn hosted UFC Freedom 250, headlined by Ilia Topuria defending his UFC lightweight title against Justin Gaethje. The South Lawn was converted into a ring-centered fight night with a full UFC card staged outside the presidential residence. Organizers promoted the event as part of the nation’s 250th anniversary celebrations and tied the broadcast to a Paramount+ subscription. Staging a professional mixed martial arts championship at the White House fused presidential pageantry with commercial sports sponsorship, highlighting tensions between politics, entertainment, and corporate promotion.
Josh Hokit just ended his post-fight speech at the White House UFC event by yelling "Michelle Obama is a man!" A disgraceful spectacle through and through
This whole event is white trash on steroids.
What the fuck are we even doing?
Remember when the media and Republicans lost it's shit when Biden used the Marines in the background for a important speech 😡
I maintain that this isn't a presidency. It's one dumb, mediocre white guy circle jerk.
No idea who that is, but I’m pretty sure he looks like and is a douchebag.
I think seeing the military forced to salute the UFC fighters will really freak a lot of people out.
I don’t want to be here anymore.
These racist homophobic pigs at the trough of misogyny lapping it up
I wish somebody would yell: "Melania is a whore," which is actually factually correct unlike this abhorrent fiction
Fucking douche. I’d like to say this comment is due to head trauma but there are assholes like this all over America who think they’re funny. Such a sad display and really pointless
Donald Trump is a pedophile.
UFC is a MAGA organization and should be treated as such.
Congrats hokit you’re now famous for just being a total dirtbag
The confederacy lives and they are as vile as ever.
These people are sick and dangerous. Who in their right mind can't see it? The hate and vengefulness are disgusting.
this guy? he looks very smart
This whole thing has been a disgrace from the beginning. These guys are using the WH Treaty Room for a locker room, using the WH corridors as part of their entrance and to see the US military being used in this manner is sickening. We are living in some of the worst days in our nation’s history!
Don’t ask why he said it ,ask why it was ok to say it in that room.
Very much on brand for trailer trash, of course.
What a crowd of pigs.
She’s more of a man than you are fucker!
You can never be the former First Lady Michelle Obama. The graceful, the hardworker, couragous mother, first lady that she is and will be. They hate a black woman that earned her place in this country. Trashy Josh Hokit should keep Michelle Obama out of his disgraceful mouth.
What a piece of shit.
Can that vile shit be reported to someone? ANYONE???
No surprise that he is from Clovis, CA. That's the part of the I-5 drive that smells like shit.
Trump has emboldened the most loser trash bitches ever. They can’t just have the good night they claim they want to have and celebrate trumps bday. They just have to insult somebody. Someone whose not there lmaooooo looooooser
what’s the tipping point america?
It’s not a surprise that this🍊vulgarian draws pestilence to his shit💩
Josh Hokit gets kicked in the head for a living.
I hope somebody beats the shit out of him in his fight tonight.
Absolutely shocking. But at least her man got a better deal with Iran than the orangutan in the White House who’s using this fight night to hide his failure.
What would you expect from the disgusting trash that is taking place in the capital?
What a piece of shit
lol goodness we are so far gone.
Hokit is the top ranked contender for the UFC Midtransphobicweight Championship.
Next to zero crowd response.
Tomorrow I hope somewhere during a press briefing about this disgusting event someone screams “Milania was a hooker that Trump bought from Epstein”. And then we can watch the Republicans heads explode as if it’s not the exact same sort of disrespect. (Except one is true)
I am happy to say that I have never heard of this “Josh Hokit,” but anyhow, he certainly isn’t a man.
As I was saying, bsky.app/profile/saba...
The guy that showed up drunk and puked on himself?
I hope she sues him for $10B. WTF is wrong with these people.
If she is, she's a better one than trump 🤣
What a psycho...how embarrassing. Imagine what the world thinks of us!!)
Do tools like Josh Hokit even realize just how fecking irrelevant and short-lived they are?
Are we really still doing Michelle Obama transvestigations in the big '26? Do these people ever let literally anything go?
We have been told for 10 yrs maga had legit policy grievances and trump was a valid candidate and that it wasnt about hate or being deplorable
Not surprised. Most of these assholes have been hit in the head many times. I decided to watch something completely opposite of whatever trump is tonight. I'm watching, " Remarkably Bright Creatures" and loving it.
Gonna be a whole lot of GOP “I haven’t seen that Tweet” around the halls of Congress tomorrow.
Michelle could take him. In the classroom, too.
An appalling desecration of The People’s House.
As disgraceful as if someone yelled Melania was an Epstein call girl.
I can believe that from one of them - after all, it was a class-less spectacle for a classless 🟧🤡
They’re putting racism ON FULL DISPLAY. Right there on The White House lawn. In 2026. Tell me. Where else on earth does this putrid display of hate happen in the residence of a head of state? I’ll wait. 🤨
Vulgar, trashy, repellent, and symbolic of the US regime.
This is what we’re up against. Don’t pretend the Republican base are salt of the earth working class people with economic anxiety. They are, indeed, a bucket of deplorables.
Trailer trash took over the White House.
This guy showed up to weigh-in drunk and threw up on himself…
No one of sound mind gives two shits about that event. It is the lowest of the low, typical male low-IQ violent tendencies. Nothing about this is uplifting or inspirational. Yes, let's put angry males in a cage fight and scream for blood and suffering. How is this positive for our culture? No thx
Man in his underwear getting his life expectancy shorted has cringe opinions... What a shock
That fuckhead is just another white supremest. That’s why he flipped the finger at his opponent before the fight. Real classy MAGA FUCKING IDIOTS.
Wtf is a Josh hokit? Is he one of the bum fighters?
It’s a gathering of giant douchey dirtbags
Joe Dirt meets Gladiator with a dash of All In The Family
Why aren't they ever suing?
The only reason he is doing this is to try to rally the knuckleheads back together who have been sluffing off.
to see my home country thoroughly debase itself is quite the spectacle
Are we fucking ready yet? Are we fucking done yet?
Isn’t this the doofus who showed up drunk for the weight in and then proceeded to vomit on himself?
A since-deleted tweet by UFC commentator Daniel Cormier, showing DM's he recieved from Eric Trump in which Eric asks about insider info on the UFC Freedom 250 fights and alludes to doing insider trading betting
Jesus fucking Christ they are scumbags all the way fucking through
Eric Trump would be dumb enough to be this brazen, by the way.
My surprise level is -100
Is Eric really that stupid to leave evidence in writing?
There is no grift too small for these fucking people
I didn’t realize his tweet was like yo this is illegal l
I need to add that this is all alleged. I got the information second hand and have now seen claims it’s fake. While I believe the this happened I also don’t want to spread misinformation. So please be skeptical till 100% verification.
UFC = Unacceptable Financial Collusion
Now deleted? That looks worse.
Daniel is gonna get in trouble with Donnie and Donnie’s boy.
Just a shitty crime family through and through
Shame? They don't know the meaning of the word
So is this real life?
shame on him for even participating
they have and will rig anything they touch, including elections, to make even more money. depraved and degenerate people.
He’s gonna be reamed out by the Trumps.
was he betting on polymarket-one of the white trash shit shows sponsors?
Is anyone surprised- grifters and cheaters to the end
I don't know why you're all outraged. The "UFC Freedom 250" event is a perfectly appropriate representation of the United States: stupid, violent, cruel, crass, barbaric, and inhumanly commercialized by greed. This is the real America outside your intellectual minority: a sick and depraved society.
The election results of the past ten years have provided some pretty big data to support this thesis
That perfectly encapsulates why I have never watched or cared about UFC. Nearly everyone I know that's a fan is a slobbering idiot.
As one of the minority, I can't argue with this at all. At this point, collectively, we deserve what we get. It's a S#!t show.
More American than NASCAR at Disney.
Most Americans aren’t stupid, violent, cruel, crass, barbaric or inhumanely anything. You’re talking about MAGAts. Point your finger at them.
Perhaps outraged because not all Americans are depraved, accepting of violence and representative of all of the wonderful descriptors used. I will not self immolate and say this is America. There is more to America than this view describes. Goodness is woven into our fabric as much as the crass.
I mean you're not wrong.
Just today but not always. The World Cup is a sign of what we once were
That’s us, sponsored by Monster drinks
Yeah we know, that's why we're outraged. Direct your comments to maga-gots on 'X'
I haven't seen a more truthful statement for a long time. This is what America has created by putting wealth, fame, greed, entitlement and arrogance, above decency. UFC Freedom 250 Boeing to a child sex trafficking felon. How utterly grotesque. MADE IN THE USA
Oh, I have no trouble believe you haven't the faintest clue why there is outrage about this.
This country is sailing down the flume into a pool of 💩
It’s also super gay which is why I love it.
A viral social media post circulating shows that Eric Trump illegally sought insider information about UFC Freedom 250 matches, trying to cash in, and Trump appeared alongside Dana White at the White House, where he looked visibly unhealthy on his 80th birthday.
Trump is never happy. He never smiles, unless he is torturing someone. He is a miserable prig.
Not a big surprise that a Trump was caught cheating. Regarding Trump looking unhealthy; it’s called ”he’s dying”. Seri I talked to a cardiologist who said that he’s surprised no other doctor is calling out the obvious congestive heart failure symptoms.
But Hunter Biden’s laptop!! The paintings!! Where is the outrage from the people that were screaming about those things? Here is a Trump trying to use insider information to line his own pockets. Corruption in plain sight and not a peep from Congress or the media. Shout out to Cormier for this
He's looked visibly unhealthy for a couple decades
A cheating criminal just like daddy.
I watched him walk down those stairs, and it appears that he has put on a noticeable amount of weight. His coat isn't loose anymore like it used to be. It shows a roll around his waist that you can easily see.
I appreciate the White House UFC Freedom 250 event for getting me to realize that I was, until five minutes ago, a paid subscriber via Amazon to Paramount+
I guess this is coming across like performative #resistance posting, but I saw that the White House thing was on Paramount+, and I thought oh shit did i ever cancel that Paramount+ trial, and I hadn't, but now I have. So thank you White House.
Yes. I had to triple check today that I don’t subscribe to Paramount + Man they are disgusting 🤮
If I hadn’t already canceled Paramount+ (and I had, after Colbert and the debacle at CBS News), I absolutely would have now.
You cancelled your subscription, I assume. This is what we need to do, to break the unholy alliance between Corporations and the 🟠💩 regime.
I had it through my Walmart delivery svc-it was free & I still cancelled it-then they added Peacock-so I have that instead. Paramount+ sucks at streaming-I rarely watched it.
I have to stay until the Yellowstone universe ends. I'm too hooked. Landman is like crack. I've watched it four times through already. I do only keep one streaming service at a time, so as to minimize my support of billionaires.

I'm Canadian and have been boycotting US products for the past ~20 months, and am also a keen gardener but never use Miracle-Gro. However, for those who do, worth noting: "ScottsMiracle-Gro Commits $1 Million to Support White House South Lawn Restoration Following UFC Freedom 250 Event".
I remember when Presidents fought to get rid of billboards along highways because they were tacky. Now the vulgarity is inside the house.
Hard to boycott stuff you'd never touch.
A lot easier to avoid most of these given I have never heard of them before.
SpaceX …advertising paid for by taxpayers, FFS
I’ve heard of 3 of these and use none. Yay me, and, what the hell is all this about? These obscure names do not tell what those companies do. GAWD I HATE ALL THIS BILLIONAIRE BULLSHIT!!!!!
Duly noted. Making my list. Checking it twice.
They're playing a terrible cover of YMCA at UFC Freedom 250 and for some reason the camera operator is focusing on the Navy.
Omg, talk about making fools of themselves. I’d consider it the highest honour to be court martialed for refusing to attend that disgraceful clown show.
God, this shitshow is so mortifying, disrespectful, egregiously corrupt, and everything that’s wrong with this country.
Remember these clips whenever you're asked to support the troops in the future. I know I will.
What in the hillbilly hell is going on?!
Blow, winds, and crack your cheeks! rage! blow! You cataracts and hurricanoes, spout Till you have drench'd our steeples, drown'd the cocks! You sulphurous and thought-executing fires, — the original King Lear
That is some truly terrible singing.
They are copying Trump’s dance moves. 😳
What an embarrassment to all involved...
Nothing like playing Temu YMCA for this shitshow
Maybe they're hoping the Navy will dance their way to victory? 😂🕺 What a vibe!
At the 1:40 mark, are those bozos making the white power sign?
Sounds like a party! 🎉 But are the Navy boys showing off their moves too? 😜
That’s qwhite a group. That’s not normal for the navy, right?
I really hope this can be erased from the history books. I don't want our future children learning about this trashy shit except January 6th and learning how bad it was.
I don’t see any fatties there.
At the UFC fight with the White House as a backdrop, fighter Josh Hokit shouts into the microphone, "Michelle Obama is a man! Am I right, America?!"
It's not like they really needed to import trash, yet they did.
Our tax dollars are helping fund this disgraceful spectacle.
I had new neighbors who I invited to my home for snacks and board games. They said this crap and they were never welcomed back to my home.
No, she's not, but neither is that pos loser who said that.
I’m speechless. I have never been so embarrassed to be an American as I am right now. I absolutely hate our government for allowing the most disgusting people on earth near the White House. They’ve turned the Capitol into a racist shit hole.

Remember when the press was furious that Joe Biden spoke in front of some red lights?
TKO is a scumbag organization from the top down. Troglodyte professional concussion-getters opining like their entire job isn't to be rendered unconscious for our entertainment.
Does he know she’s the most popular woman in the country
Trash...ignorant trash. What has America done to itself? Self-inflicted destruction. When will enough people care enough to stop it? How much is enough?
Hokit has a long history of vicious racism. Republicans wanted to give this maniac KKK admirer a public forum to push the GOP agenda of hate.
No, you’re a disgrace along with the president who invited you
Is that the guy who was filmed throwing up on himself?
Trump and UFC’s Dana White made their entrance from the White House balcony following the national anthem ahead of UFC Freedom 250. The event has been promoted as a gift to the American people and part of the nation's 250th anniversary celebration. The catch? A Paramount+ subscription. Mercado Media
The Stanley Cup is on ABC...who would even watch this vanity event on TV?
One more reason to delete Paramount Plus (I get it for "free" as a subscriber to other services).
That and our 250th bd is July 4th, not today
I'm so bored of this shit show.
I think I finally figured out what Ivermectin does besides treating a parasite. It made Joe Rogan think his tie fit him right 😬.
Eric Trump calls out ‘AI generated screenshots’ after post claims he asked UFC Freedom 250 commentator if fights were ‘rigged’ www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
I think the real question is, "Is Eric Trump dumber than a box of rocks?"
“Wasn’t me, it was AI” is something that will be heard A LOT for the foreseeable, horrible future.
Deny deny deny Just like daddy taught him
“I didn’t do it.” - Criminal
Imagine being such a goof that in the year of our lord 2026 you don't know that ALL UFC/MMA fights are "rigged"(staged)...
Not AI. The guy who posted was the person texting with Eric.
I wrote about UFC Freedom and its uneasy connection to sports gambling a few weeks ago. Seems relevant, if the Eric thing is true. open.substack.com/pub/gregolea...
I tuned in for a bit. Horrifying ads.
I really don't want to watch it, but it's still absolutely bonkers that this event "for America" is only for a small subset of the population that have a subscription or can even afford one. What's next? Completely private 4th of July orgy inside the white house.
