Worth pointing out that this entire event proves no one in the Trump Administration believes that bullshit about needing a ballroom for security.

[Lincoln Square @LincolnSquareHQ]

Turning the White House into a UFC venue was disgraceful enough—but allowing UFC fighter Josh Hokit to stand on that historic stage and spew vile conspiracy theories that "Michelle Obama is a man" is an absolute abomination.
When the People’s House is handed over to bullies to promote hate, it insults the very fabric of American democracy. This rot cannot be normalized.

🚨🗣️New: Zlatan Ibrahimovic on Vinicius Junior refusing the mandatory halftime interview with FIFA at the World Cup:

“People are shocked that Vinícius walked away from a halftime interview. I am shocked that anyone thinks he should have stopped in the first place.

Halftime is not a television studio. Halftime is not a podcast. Halftime is not a red carpet. Halftime is the heartbeat of a football match.

For 45 minutes, players are warriors in a storm. They run, they fight, they suffer, they bleed. Then they get 15 precious minutes to recover, to breathe, to listen, to think. And FIFA wants to spend part of that time chasing soundbites? That is like pulling a Formula 1 driver out of his car during a pit stop and asking him how the race is going.

And FIFA’s idea is to shove a microphone in the player’s face and ask, ‘How do you feel?’

How do you think he feels? He’s exhausted.

This is modern football’s biggest disease. Everything is content. Everything is sponsorship. Everything is television. The match hasn’t even finished and they’re already trying to manufacture headlines.

They tell us they care about player welfare. Really? Then why are players playing more games than ever? Why are tournaments expanding? Why are injuries increasing? And now they want halftime interviews too? The hypocrisy is unbelievable.

Halftime is sacred. It belongs to the players and the coaches. That’s where games are won. That’s where tactics change. That’s where injuries get treated. That’s where leaders speak. It is not a media circus.

And don’t tell me this is for the fans. Fans want better football, not a tired player giving a robotic 20-second answer because somebody sold another broadcast package.

Vinícius understood that. He chose football over public relations.

The funniest part? They threaten him with a fine. A fine. As if that changes the principle. If I were there, I’d pay it too. Because some things are worth more than money.

If FIFA really had their way, they’d put microphones in the dressing room and call it innovation.

Football should come first. Not content. Not commercials. Not corporate greed.

For once, a player pushed back. And that’s exactly why so many people are angry.”

[Mark Carney @MarkJCarney]

Canada strongly condemns Russia’s latest attack on Kyiv, including the strike on the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, a sacred site in Ukraine and Eastern Christianity. 

Canada stands with Ukraine. Their cause — freedom, democracy, sovereignty — is our cause.

[Governor Tim Walz @GovTimWalz]

We miss you, and think of you often.

Session is wrapped. Spring is in bloom. I’m retiring soon. You two would have thrived in retirement. I trust you’re living it now.

We have our arms wrapped around your kids. They’re remarkable. We love them.

🚨 VINI JR JUST TOLD FIFA: “WE’LL PAY THE FINE — BUT NOBODY FROM US IS DOING HALF-TIME INTERVIEWS.”

During Brazil’s World Cup match, Vinícius refused the mandatory tunnel interview.

Reporter: “You’ll get a huge fine for this.”

Vini: “We’ll pay. But nobody is coming to the mic.”

This isn’t arrogance. It’s players finally saying enough to FIFA’s corporate circus.

Half-time should be for tactics, water, recovery — not feeding the broadcast machine while the game gets sliced up for ads (sound familiar with those forced “welfare” breaks?).

FIFA under Infantino has turned football into a product. Mandatory everything. Player focus as an afterthought. Suits in Zurich cashing in.

Brazil and Vini just pushed back. Raw. Direct. No bowing to the machine.

The beautiful game belongs to the players on the pitch — not boardrooms selling every second.

Who else is done with this?

DONALD TRUMP IS THE MOST CORRUPT PRESIDENT IN AMERICAN HISTORY!

[Hunter Biden @HunterBiden]

I’m just going to post this every few days rather than arguing with faceless, nameless trolls in the comments.

[Jennifer Get In Good Trouble @TheJenniWren]

Trump used the Armed Forces Full Honor Cordon — soldiers who escort fallen heroes and heads of state — to usher UFC fighters past Abraham Lincoln’s statue like they’re celebrities on a red carpet. I am LIVID. And everyone else should be too.

[Chris D. Jackson @ChrisDJackson]

📸 President Biden just left Mass at St. Joseph on the Brandywine.

Whether he was President of the United States or fighting stage 4 cancer, Biden has always shown up for Mass because his faith is real and he actually lives it.

Meanwhile, “Christian conservatives” overwhelmingly backed a three-times-married adulterer who cheated on his pregnant wife with a porn star and was found liable for sexual abuse.

It was never about faith.

It was always about power.

[Molly Ploofkins @Mollyploofkins]

This is Rep. Joyce Beatty, a Democratic U.S. Representative who has served Ohio's 3rd Congressional District since 2013. Rep. Beatty brought the lawsuit that resulted in Trump's name being removed from the Kennedy Center.

She's our Hero of the Week.

[MeidasTouch @MeidasTouch]

🚨EXCLUSIVE: A commercial airline pilot tells MeidasTouch they filed FAA and NASA safety reports after lighting from Trump’s UFC event at the White House allegedly flooded their cockpit on approach to Reagan National. The pilot called it “10 times worse than any laser illumination event” they’d ever experienced. https://t.co/L6taUKdgbG

Per the FBI, Trump knew and funded underage sex parties in Palm Beach.

Taxpayers paid for over $38 billion in subsidies and government contracts for Space X, and Elon Musk gets to be a trillionaire off of our tax dollars.

[Covie @covie_93]

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.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Today, Elon Musk, a trillionaire, pays the same amount into Social Security as someone making $184,500.

If we end that absurdity and lift the cap on taxable income, we can make Social Security solvent for 75 years and expand benefits by $2,400. My Social Security bill does that.

[Bill Kristol @BillKristol]

"This Sunday night’s UFC spectacle on the South Lawn...captures something about this moment in our history.

It's vulgar, violent, commercial, grandiose, tacky, and it dishonors a place once thought worthy of care and respect. In other words, it’s Donald Trump."
