His Three-Time Cancer Fight

Jason Tonsfeldt got attacked by a bear and now has a huge scar on his neck. Or at least that is what he and his family jokes happened to him to find some humor in a tough situation. In reality, Jason’s scar was the result of doctors removing lymph nodes from his neck following a cancer diagnosis in 2021. This was not the first time he was diagnosed with cancer, nor would it be the last. Tonsfeldt is again fighting cancer currently. He and his wife, Ali, shared the journey Jason’s cancer has taken their family on. 04/12/2023 12:00 AM

Poll: TRUMP FIGHTS FOR HIS BIRTHDAY President Donald Trump recently hosted a UFC mixed martial arts event on the White House South Lawn as part of a celebration tied to his 80th birthday and the nation's upcoming 250th anniversary. Some people view it as no different than other entertainers and performers who have appeared at White House events under various presidents. Others believe a professional fighting event was not an appropriate use of the White House grounds. What do you think?

I have no problem with it. Presidents have hosted many types of entertainers and public events at the White House.

It was unusual, but fine.

I think it was inappropriate to hold a UFC event at the White House.
