Donald Trump celebrated his 80th birthday with a UFC cage-fighting event called 'UFC Freedom 250' on the White House South Lawn. The White House grounds were transformed into an outdoor arena featuring a 90-foot scaffold known as 'The Claw' and an audience of 4,000 people. Fighter jets flew overhead during the event. The event coincided with Flag Day and the launch of celebrations for the 250th anniversary of American independence. An agreement to end the war in Iran was announced around the time of the event, according to multiple sources. According to the Times of India, the agreement also included the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz. The event was described by some as a showstopping spectacle and by others as inappropriate given the Iran war. The crowd chanted 'USA! USA!' according to the Hindu. According to the Hindu, Trump and UFC chief Dana White walked together from the Oval Office to the Blue Room Balcony to survey the Octagon. The event was described as something that once would have seemed unfathomable.
