WATCH LIVE: President Trump Attends New York Yankees Game on 9/11 Anniversary – 7 PM ET

President Trump will attend a New York Yankees game tonight at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, New York, to commemorate the 24th anniversary of 9/11. 

The Yankees will face the Detroit Tigers tonight with the first pitch at 7:05 pm ET.

This comes after President Trump visited the 9/11 Pentagon Memorial in Arlington, Virginia, on Thursday morning.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, the President took a moment during his remarks at the Pentagon Memorial to recognize and honor Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, who was fatally struck by an assassin’s bullet on Wednesday.

Trump announced that he will posthumously award Kirk with a Presidential Medal of Freedom, describing him as “a giant of his generation, a champion of liberty and an inspiration to millions and millions of people.”

The President also honored the victims of the September 11, 2001, attacks, vowing to “never forget” that day.

Watch his full speech from this morning below:

Trump’s visit to Yankee Stadium comes after the New York Yankees honored Kirk’s life and service on Wednesday with a moment of silence and a jumbotron memorial for the 31-year-old conservative leader.

Before tonight’s game we held a moment of silence in memoriam of Charlie Kirk.

Kirk founded the youth activist group “Turning Point USA” and had become a fixture on college campuses. Charlie Kirk, a husband and father of two children, was 31 years old.

Additional security precautions will be in place for tonight’s game with road closures and enhanced screening for attendees.
