Watchdog aims to derail UFC Freedom 250 on White House lawn for Trump’s birthday
A watchdog group filed a federal lawsuit to block UFC Freedom 250, a private MMA event planned on the White House South Lawn for President Trump’s 80th birthday, alleging illegal use of federal parkland, lack of congressional authorization, and no environmental review; the administration says it’s properly permitted as part of the 250th anniversary celebration, and a temporary restraining order was sought to halt construction.
