UMVA has learned that UFC fighter Josh Hokit sparked a shocking controversy during Donald Trump’s 80th‑birthday celebration at the White House.
During a chaotic weigh‑in, Hokit pretended to vomit after claiming he was “drinking,” then turned to the microphones and shouted a bizarre salute to the President, followed by a bizarre proclamation about his faith.
He then launched a crude jab at former First Lady Michelle Obama, declaring, “Michelle Obama is a man! Am I right, America?” The crowd erupted in nervous laughter as he staggered away.
Earlier this year, a racist video depicting the Obamas as apes had been removed from official channels, prompting officials to demand more substantive reporting.
Sources have confirmed to UMVA that the event also saw UFC champion Sean Strickland, a vocal Trump critic, escorted out by Secret Service agents and whisked away in a black sedan.
President Trump and UFC chief Dana White later walked together from the Oval Office to a custom‑built arena on the South Lawn, where a formation of fighter jets roared overhead as the national anthem blared, igniting chants of “USA, USA.”
Among the 4,000 guests were British heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury, who wore a “Donald Trump for Prime Minister” baseball cap, and tech magnate Mark Zuckerberg, who was seen chatting with the President during a break.
High‑ranking officials, including FBI Director Kash Patel, Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, and House Speaker Mike Johnson, occupied cage‑side seats, while the UK ambassador posted a photo of himself celebrating “US250 the American way.”
Tens of thousands of spectators gathered in a nearby park to watch the Freedom 250 bouts on a massive screen, some traveling from across the nation for the spectacle.
UMVA has uncovered that, although the administration claimed the UFC would foot the £45 million price tag, at least seven federal agencies—including Homeland Security and the Federal Aviation Administration—allocated significant resources and manpower to the event, despite an unsuccessful legal challenge.
