A tornado warning and protests threaten Donald Trump's 80th birthday UFC event at the White House.
Donald Trump is marking his 80th birthday with a UFC cage-fighting event at the White House, held right after a surprise peace deal with Iran. A tornado warning in the Washington area and protests—including a fighter's on-camera insult of Michelle Obama—are threatening to derail the spectacle, and German outlets from Spiegel to Tagesschau are covering the bizarre scene live.
The tornado watch remains active and the fighter's comment has sparked immediate backlash; whether the outdoor fights proceed, how security handles any protest escalation, and Trump's own reaction will decide if this becomes a lasting political storm or a short-lived sideshow.
