Former President Joe Biden's son, Hunter Biden, pushed back on podcast host Joe Rogan's defense of the UFC White House event, claiming that the White House was a "sacred" space.During Wednesday's episode of "The Joe Rogan Experience," Rogan called out critics of people who attended the UFC Freedom 250 spectacle on the White House South Lawn in the run-up to America’s 250th anniversary."Like they're mad at people for being there," Rogan said."Like, 'Oh, you support Trump.' Like, it's a f---ing fight at the White House.
Doesn't mean you endorse foreign policy.Like, shut the f--- up.
Just please.Just please stop."DANA WHITE DENIES AMERICA 250 UFC FIGHT AT WHITE HOUSE WILL BE 'POLITICAL,' 'NOT AT ALL' ABOUT POLITICSThe UFC Freedom 250 fights took place on the South Lawn of the White House on June 15, 2026, in Washington, D.C. (Jacquelyn Martin Pool/Getty Images)Though Biden called the event a "once-in-a-lifetime spectacle" that he did not blame anyone for attending, he attacked the event itself and President Donald Trump's alleged attempt to usurp the "People's House.""My problem is that I believe some of our public spaces are sacred," Biden wrote on Thursday.
"And unlike many of the great powers that came before us, these American monuments belong to all of us.Not to whoever happens to hold power at the moment.
The White House does not belong to Donald Trump.It does not belong to any President.
It belongs to the people."He continued, "To treat it as Caesar treated the Colosseum is antithetical to everything our founding fathers fought for.This is not Rome.
Presidents are not emperors doling out bread and circuses for the peasants.The White House is the People’s House.
This ‘celebration’ could have happened in any stadium within a stone’s throw of the South Lawn.No one would have had an issue with it.
But that was obviously Donald Trump’s whole point."LEFT-WING HISTORIAN LIKENS UFC WHITE HOUSE EVENT TO LYNCHINGS ERAHunter Biden criticized Joe Rogan...
