Our great leader, President Donald Trump has announced a new series of festivities in 2026!

Trump on Freedom 250 and the 2026 celebration that honors our nation like never before. WATCH: pic.twitter.com/aSaPqQ0U7m > > — The White House (@WhiteHouse) December 18, 2025 ### Highlights include a UFC fight at the White House and the construction of an arc in DC (apparently, “We are the only major place without a triumphal arc, a beautiful triumphal arc, one like in Paris”). According to Trump, “Construction will start in the very near future, and next spring, we will host a major prayer event on the National Mall to rededicate our country as one nation under God. We’re not changing that. A lot of people would like to see it. It’ll never happen.” Swell! Freedom 250 ### However, it’s the announcement of the “Patriot Games” that had a lot of people making the same pesky comment. Trump said, “In the fall, we will host the first-ever Patriot Games, an unprecedented four-day athletic event featuring the greatest high school athletes, one young man and one young woman from each state and territory.” Freedom 250 Lest that not be enough, Trump then made an anti-trans jab about children: “I promise there will be no men playing in women’s sports. You’re not going to see that.” ## Now, does this sound a little similar to the plotline of “The Hunger Games?” Uhh... TheDemocrats ### Commenters on the YouTube video were definitely thrilled! The White House ### “The Hunger Games” DID NOT START TRENDING ON X LOOK AWAY FROM THAT. White House ### I’m sure it’ll be as seamless and riveting as the 250th birthday of the US Army military parade!
