White proclaims that Democrats will come after him

In an interview with Lara Trump, Dana White stated that he expects to be targeted for investigations by Democrats due to his connections with the president. While martyrdom does not befit the alpha White, he seems to be inferring that the investigation would be merely a witchhunt.

But what could White be investigated for by the government? It wouldn’t be the antitrust lawsuits ongoing in federal district court in Nevada. TKO has been found to unsavory discovery tactics. But you might chalk that up to spirited litigation and the old saying, “if you are not cheating, you are not trying.” Ok, cheating may be a strong word and there’s no current proof of that happening.

It could be due to the fact that the president has stock holdings in TKO, a company that includes the UFC and WWE. Both of which have benefited from being friends with the current administration. The overbroad issue of how the president’s wealth increased during this current time in the White House. Moreover, he’s made a ton of money from stock-trading. And the accusations of insider knowledge are strong due to the obvious issues with conlict of interests.

The White House had an initial training session where UFC staff “trained” FBI members. It then held a UFC event at The White House for Trump’s birthday. At the time, news surfaced that the government and the UFC entered into an agreement of some kind. It was not until this fall that the Washington Sun uncovered a “no bid” contract for the UFC with the FBI for an amount of money not disclosed in FOIA-released documents.

TKO claims that it spent $30M on The White House event but there were obvious perks to the event including having the U.S. military as props and selling the music to the night.

So, was the no bid contract a “quid pro quo” so that TKO could recoup any deficits spent and any shortfalls would be made up by the government? Certainly something for U.S. taxpayers to know.

With the new Congress coming in 2027, investigations in government spending may be an issue of investigation. And, while there may be more important business to handle, the issue of “no bid” contracts and “quid pro quos” is something fundamental that must be investigated.

Will it involve White? Stay tuned.
