A big UFC spectacle is planned for today on the White House lawn to mark the 80th birthday of US President Donald Trump and the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.
Trump will be surrounded by cabinet members, senior administration officials, Republican lawmakers and thousands of spectators who will watch the fights in a specially designed octagonal ring with a protective steel fence, special lighting and sound equipment.
Thousands of people will watch the martial arts spectacle on screens set up in a park not far from the White House.
AP warns of forecast and weather conditions that could significantly disrupt plans.
The agency also recalls that in 2022, for the 80th birthday of Trump's predecessor, President Joseph Biden, a family brunch was held at the White House, highlighting how much things have changed and how quickly.
