God, Family, Country #AuthenticMe. Married the Love of my life! 5 magnificent sons, 3 amazing D-I-Ls, 5 extraordinary grandchildren. My personal statements.
Dear Joe,
I wish I could sit down with you face to face and explain why so many of us were offended by the UFC fight on the South Lawn of the White House.
For me, it had nothing to do with the UFC or who showed up for the fights. The brand you and Dana have built is a bona fide American success story. More power to you. As for the fighters, in my book, anyone brave enough to put it all on the line in the arena is remarkable to witness. Their dedication and discipline inspire me. I don’t understand anyone who can’t admire that.
And as for the people who attended, I, for one, love Shane Gillis. I think he’s hilarious and brilliant. It was a show. A once-in-a-lifetime spectacle. I can’t blame anyone for wanting to witness it firsthand.
My problem is that I believe some of our public spaces are sacred. And unlike many of the great powers that came before us, these American monuments belong to all of us. Not to whoever happens to hold power at the moment.
The White House does not belong to Donald Trump. It does not belong to any President. It belongs to the people. To treat it as Caesar treated the Colosseum is antithetical to everything our founding fathers fought for.
This is not Rome. Presidents are not emperors doling out bread and circuses for the peasants. The White House is the People’s House. This “celebration” could have happened in any stadium within a stone’s throw of the South Lawn. No one would have had an issue with it.
But that was obviously Donald Trump’s whole point. By holding the event on the South Lawn, what he was saying to the rest of us is:
“This is my house. I own it. I will do with it what I please. I’ll build a colosseum and have the gladiators fight under my gaze. I’ll tear down the East Wing. I’ll pave over the Rose Garden. I’ll cover everything in gold and marble. I’ll erase the names of all the men who came before me.”
The fights were an exhibition of imperial domination, not a celebration of our 250th anniversary as a democracy.
The White House is not Buckingham Palace. It is not the Palace of Versailles. It is not the Forbidden City of Beijing. It does not belong to an emperor, or a king, or a commissar.
The White House belongs to us. All of us. The person who sits behind the Resolute Desk in the Oval Office is nothing more than an honored guest. A temporary caretaker.
The President is our servant. Not our Caesar.
Respectfully, Hunter
P.S. Cage match between me and Don Jr.? Your call on the venue. Anywhere but the South Lawn.
So…Basically they took the U.S. to war, got thousands of civilians killed, spent billions of taxpayer dollars, got U.S. service members killed and injured, our bases destroyed—and ended up agreeing to terms that embolden the regime they claimed they were going to take out, allowing Iran to maintain its nuclear program, and weakening U.S. military and diplomatic standing.
In a nutshell…they got played. And American service members and thousands of civilians paid the price.

Zohran Mamdani spoke at a Rikers Island graduation ceremony honoring 57 incarcerated people who earned their high school diplomas.
One graduate, Elijah Smith, said he didn’t expect the mayor to show up, but his presence meant something: “It helped. Someone cares about the incarcerated individuals in this jail.”
Sometimes dignity starts with simply showing up.
The Pentagon, despite a $1 trillion budget, is full of waste, fraud and abuse. It is, in fact, the only federal agency that can’t pass an independent financial audit. And now Trump wants $500 billion more in military spending.
CONGRESS MUST JUST SAY NO.

LeBron James reveals he didn't know what a pantry was until high school
“I went to my high school coach's house and I asked him, ‘Can I get a snack or some chips or whatever?’ He was like, ‘Yeah, just go in the pantry.’ I'm like, ‘What the fuck is the pantry?’”
“Where I grew up, everything is on top of the refrigerator. The bread, the chips, the cereal, everything is on top of the refrigerator. I don't know what the hell a pantry is”
“That was my motivation right there. I'm like I got to give my mama a pantry”

A floodgate will open at Tom Miller Dam soon. That will send water from Lake Austin to Lady Bird Lake.
It has been a while since that has happened. It will be quite the scene around Red Bud Isle #atxwx

In Japan it’s tradition to clean everything all the time no matter where you are, for them it means mindfulness, organization, and respect.
You gotta admit that Zohran Mamdani’s energy is contagious.
Here he is at the Puerto Rico Day Parade in New York City.
We need more politicians who bring people together like @ZohranKMamdani does.
Julia Roberts: Renee Nicole Goode is not a symbol. She is an American woman, a queer woman who was doing the very best she could do to be good in an unjust world.
And I am honored to celebrate her life and her legacy tonight, because the life she gave is our responsibility to carry.
I am grateful to be alive after getting caught in a flash flooding event on I 35 near Waco. Look how fast the water was coming over this retaining wall. I am so thankful that retaining wall held up otherwise this situation could've been a horrible tragedy. There were many of us literally trapped on I 35. I am so thankful for the first responders who came out.
In the North Atlantic Ocean, south of Greenland and Iceland, a large patch of water is doing something strange. While the rest of the ocean heats up, it’s been getting colder - cooling by 1.8ºF since 1900. https://t.co/fDS159T64V
