The White House is preparing to host a Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) event, which presents significant logistical challenges. During the event, the White House will be closed to reporters, with potential access contingent on permission from the UFC organization.
Extensive road closures are planned across Washington D.C. in connection with the fight. Separately, a super PAC supporting President Trump is scheduled to host a high-dollar fundraiser, charging $1 million per person, the day before the White House event. The Trump administration is also facing a lawsuit alleging the UFC event on the White House lawn is "illegal" and "corrupt."
President Trump's administration is moving forward with the event despite these developments. This is a developing story and will be updated as details emerge.
