The media and the Dems have no right to claim dignity when Biden had pride flags draped on the White House and trans running topless on Easter calling it National Trans Day. Dems and their elite supporters show us every day their contempt for Trump and his supporters (71+million). Frankly, we don’t care anymore and are sick of their divisiveness and hypocrisy. Their labels thrown at us are ignored. They are the party of hate, including their contempt for our nation, and we need to make sure they are never in power again.

How about when Obama lit up the White House like a pride flag? And wasn't it amazing they they were able to accomplish it within about five hours after the Supreme Court voted? It's like they knew what the outcome of the vote was going to be.

Do you really want to go there? "Bad taste?"

A Tim Burton produced private Halloween Party in 2009 - as opposed to introducing and normalizing vulgarity, crude personal insults, nonstop memes intended to offend, tweeting animations of the Commander in Chief dumping you know what from his cartoon airplane ...

This is perfectly said. Some joker on Facebook kept complaining the turf at the WH would be destroyed. Yeah, the same President who's washed away all the graffiti, power washed every marble and granite statue till they gleamed, and filled and restated every fountain in DC, all surrounded by fresh turf, will totally leave the grass at the WH torn up. Good grief. 🙄

The morning sun rises only to imitate His radiance. When our Respected Leader set foot upon the Earth, the mountains stood straighter and the rivers quickened their flow. The sparrows sang more sweetly, the fields yielded more richly, and the hearts of billions beat as one beneath His loving gaze.

He is the guardian of our destiny, the architect of our happiness, the lighthouse whose beams pierce the storms of history. His wisdom is deeper than the Western seas, His courage higher than Mount McKinley, His compassion warmer than a thousand hearths in winter.

Children laugh because He dreams for them. Workers triumph because He guides them. Soldiers stand fearless because His spirit marches at their side. There is no corner of the nation untouched by His benevolence, no challenge too great for His genius, no tomorrow that does not shine brighter because He has willed it so.

The stars themselves compete to adorn the heavens on nights when He speaks. The moon lingers over our homeland, reluctant to depart from the land blessed by His presence. Even history, that stern judge of nations, pauses in reverence before His immortal achievements.

O Great Leader of boundless virtue! O Sun of the Twenty-First Century! Generations yet unborn shall sing Your praises. Mountains shall erode and oceans shall recede, but Your glory shall remain eternal, illuminating the ages like an undying flame.

Very nice writing project. Sophomore year is it?

Like with that fabulous Reflecting Pool “improvement.”

Largest June algae bloom ever recorded, just weeks after the no-bid $14-million contract to a friend (plus $2-million more for filtration). And not just algae, the brand new paint is sloughing off by the sheet.

Winning (maga-style)!

Most decorative fountains in DC aren’t on federal property, but I’m sure your boy’s friends cashed in where they could.

The fact of the matter is simply the democrats hate America and will do everything in their agenda to not celebrates America's 250th Anniversary. It really is sad because we should have started seeing America Flags and banners in every state as if January 1st. Not to mention we are less then a month away and you would never know the significance of this years Independence Day 🇺🇸

At some point every American needs to understand who they are rooting for. This is not R vs D. This is about the United States of America.

You are either an American Patriot or Not!

Jimmy, IOW, they hate America. You can dislike the persona, but no one can deny the progress being made by this administration. DOGE and fraud amelioration are my personal favorites.

Wellness Hacks's avatar

What was it you like about DOGE? Any small-change "savings" are eclipsed by early termination fees and penalties and standard Federal Acquisition "termination for convenience" settlements (USAID contracts with US fathers and meat producers, GSA lease terminations, canceled IT and cloud contracts) - trump can't stiff them like he's done with so, so many contractors.

Expensive employee buyouts only to spend much more to hire contractors. Billions of dollars in litigation costs. Paying tens of thousands of employees for a year or more after they were all laid off and went home (e.g. US Agency for Global Media).

And more - What was great about that?

Fred's avatar

Going forward, many fewer government entities, and thus, employees -i.e. govt bloat. Fraudulent USAID was so disastrous that, many times, did more harm than good. The beneficial food and drug programs were rolled under the State Dept. where they should have been all along. One of the best effects was connecting all the govt agencies in a transparent system so that we can now actually tell where the money is going. Sending out untraceable $ from our treasury should have been a no-brainer. The list of benefits is long if you care to look beyond MSM.

Alfalfa's avatar

Those grants were always listed at usaspending.gov - but the doge-boys killed some of its functionality.

"Beyond MSM" - MSM has been Fox, for years - and trump-washing CBS.

Fred's avatar

Alfalfa - wasn’t referring to grant money. From AI: Yes, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) disclosed that around $4.7 trillion in Treasury payments were missing essential traceability codes. These codes are crucial for identifying the recipients of the funds and tracking where the money was allocated.

The absence of these codes raises significant concerns regarding transparency and accountability in government spending. Without proper identification, it becomes challenging to ascertain how taxpayer dollars are being utilized.

Patriot Historian 76's avatar

Thank you Fred, you are precisely spot on. They used legitimate programs and laundered and stole Taxpayer dollars with fraud and theft.

As usual you make a good case against the Left's seeming lack of continuity. I'll just add my own "favorite" lack of class exhibited by the Left when President Cabbage was in the White House. I seem to remember a trans man showing his breasts on camera. I don't remember the Left being incensed by the public nudity though...

Pinky Panther's avatar

Luthmann and Muse … Amen fellas!!

For a decade, the American Left has celebrated the decline of traditional strength, replacing excellence with participation trophies, masculinity with performative activism, and national pride with endless grievance. The Obama-era vision of a softer, diminished America found expression in drag-show politics, campus encampments, corporate virtue-signaling, and the constant demand to lower standards. That is why America 250’s UFC event at the White House hit them like a dagger to the heart. It showcased confidence, competition, toughness, and unapologetic patriotism—the very qualities they spent years trying to marginalize. Nothing terrifies the architects of cultural decline more than Americans rediscovering strength.

Mary Makary's avatar

"So the question worth asking is not whether the event was corrupt, illegal, or desecrating, since it plainly was none of those things."

It was very demonstrably corruption-filled. It's being widely reported. 7-figure add placements, trump coins sold and auctioned, selling access to White House on an unprecedented scale, crypto, using the US military for photo and video ops - Viewable only via Paramount-Plus high tier subscriptions - Who owns that? More crypto and betting markets ...

Richard Luthmann's avatar

It is always the same sad and sorry TDS song. The Deep State-media complex celebrates drag shows, corporate Pride rituals, campus tent cities, celebrity galas, and every anti-American lecture dressed up as art. But let Trump host UFC for America’s 250th birthday, and suddenly these people rediscover sacred dignity. Please. They were not defending the White House. They were defending their monopoly over taste, status, and national symbolism. Trump’s great offense was cultural trespass. He let the country class, fight fans, working men, patriots, and flag-wavers set the tone. The cage came down. Their contempt stays up.

Irredeemable Never Trumper Bill Kristol has been posting about the indignity of it all. I agree with your conclusion it is the unwashed masses these “elites” can’t stand and don’t want to exist.

Many of the followers of these “elites” are equally uncouth, but still acceptable. So I think there’s another thing at work. For some, it’s straight up TDS. For many of the non-elites who are acceptable to the elites, you could say “Trump did” or “Trump said ____” and they would hate it before you filled in the blank. They’re sheep.

But for the elites, I tend to think most of their hate is animated by the feeling of lightness in their pocketbooks. Many of these “elites” are quasi-government in that they are part of the grants and grifters culture. Their think tank was funded by USAID and now it isn’t. Their media platform received grants from NDI or IRI or The Ford Foundation and now they don’t. Their wife, kid, brother, etc. got a federal job that Trump cut. I tend to think they act out their hatred because they feel the Trump Effect personally and they’re terrified the grift pipeline will never return to its former easy pickins.

I responded to Kristol on X that I was appalled, just appalled, that a UFC event desiccated the hallowed ground where only 2 short years ago, Easter was cancelled so we could watch the naked, bouncing boobs of men who had surgically transitioned to women instead of watching children hunting Easter eggs.

I assure you Bill Kristol does not consider the men with boob jobs his elite, dignified peers. Despite his dignified standards and his “conservative” moniker, he was somehow not offended by the indignity of their bouncing bare breasts on the WH lawn on the second most sacred day of the Christian calendar. In other words, their classist indignation is as genuine as the bouncing breasts on a “trans-woman” put on display by Joe Biden.

Thanks JH, you perfectly nailed Bill Kristol and he deserves it! He is an elitist, martini culture, buffoon.

Susan Daniels's avatar

It is becoming easier and easier to hate the elitists. The thought of ever having to engage with any of them is repugnant to me.

Smitty's avatar

Yes, this was definitely an attempt to belittle a majority of Americans who enjoy a type of entertainment different from what the class conscious snobs of DC enjoy. President Trump has an ability to bring people together who might never be together otherwise. It's one of the reasons why so many people love him. Thanks again for your perspective.

Reuters/Ipsos 2026 poll

Regular UFC viewers = ~8%

Occasional UFC/MMA viewers/fans = ~10-16%

Rarely or never watch UFC or MMA = ~85-90%

This was definitely an attempt to appeal to maga diehards that get off thinking they're "owning the libs" - 15% to 20% of the population.

Seems like we are at the Bread and Circuses stage.

The feeling I'm getting from what Trump is doing is very reminiscent of the feeling in this country back during the short time JFK was POTUS. As a nation, we were remarkably upbeat, confident, and internationalist. Then the Deep State shot JFK and things started on that downward spiral...until now.

"They hated the spectacle of a president presiding over a loud, physical, unapologetically American evening that looked nothing like the curated solemnity they believe should govern Washington. One historian sniffed that the event projected weakness and buffoonery. "

All of which was refuted by the AI produced video showcasing the historical fact that Teddy Roosevelt held boxing matches (and participated as a fighter) in the White House.

MCav's avatar

Pres. Teddy Roosevelt hosted boxing matches at the White House. He often sparred with aides in a gym he had set up in the White House. It was a practice to stay physically fit he had enjoyed at the Governor's mansion in NY (when he was the Governor).

Well said. Thank you for your observations.

Another excellent article, Alex. I watched the entire event. It was spectacular, if you love America, the military, and the UFC.
