Knowing Trump, he’ll wind up declaring Martian Law. ---

Donald Trump will be celebrating his 80th birthday (June 14, 2026) by staging a UFC cage match (UFC Freedom 250) on the White House lawn. It’s got to be really hard to write for The Onion nowadays. ---

When I lived in my old town, one fine Saturday evening, the civic center hosted two events: “The Condensed Works of William Shakespeare”, which I attended in the theater, and cage fights in the other area. I over heard a box office staffer say that they could tell with about 99% accuracy which event people would attend, just by looking at them (and smelling them too, in some cases). On a related note, there has GOT to be someone out there who is willing to permanently torpedo their career by committing the HIPAA violation of HIPAA violations, and tell us the truth about the Dumpster’s health. PSST: Anyone who does that would probably never have to work again. ---

> [@nearwildheaven](#): > > Anyone who does that would probably never have to work again. I’d certainly chip in. Is there any potential prison time for a HIPAA violation or is it just fines and getting fired? ---

One of the legal grounds for breaking medical confidentiality is when there are signs of elder abuse. But it’s generally invoked when it’s abuse of the elder rather than abuse by the elder. ---

Maybe an event like that could be added to the Big Birthday Fight on the White House lawn. A big water tank, and have RFK jump in there, unarmed of course, with a shark or two. That could be the opener. 🦈 ---
