Left-wing distraction of Trump's UFC event falls flat as bitter celebrities mocked online

The political left's attempt to counter-program President Donald Trump's UFC event on the White House lawn Sunday night ended in widespread online mockery as celebrities and media personalities who have publicly complained for a decade about President Donald Trump offered more of the same.

The event, called "Rise Up, Sing Out: A Concert for the First Amendment," was hosted by far-left activist and actress Jane Fonda, nicknamed "Hanoi Jane," and the Committee for the First Amendment in New York City.
