  "account": "In a controversial announcement, US President Donald Trump has reportedly asked MMA promoter Dana White to serve as a spokesperson for the White House. White, the CEO of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), is also said to be bringing along some fighters as assistants, despite some of them not being from the United States, as reported on the president's Truth Social platform. Trump described White as a \"violent fighter and warrior,\" emphasizing the need for such individuals to defend against the \"crazy left.\"\n\nThe president suggested having six current or former UFC champions on White's side, including athletes from Russia's Dagestan region, Islam Machatschyev and Chabib Nurmagomedov, as well as fighters from the US, such as Justin Gaethje, Daniel Cormier, and Kayla Harris. Trump also mentioned Amanda Nunes, a Brazilian native who recently became a US citizen.",
