President Donald Trump has announced he is allocating government funds to the New York City memorial honoring those killed in the 1993 and 2001 terror attacks.

Amid an ongoing leftist movement to take down monuments across the nation, the president tweeted Friday that $2 million dollars will go to the memorial and museum, which is located in lower Manhattan.

“I am proud to announce $2 million for the @Sept11Memorial in NYC!” Trump wrote on Twitter.

“This special site ensures that the memory of the nearly 3,000 people killed in the terror attacks of September 11, 2001, as well as those lost in the World Trade Center bombing in 1993, will never be forgotten!” he added.

A top Department of Homeland Security official, Christopher Krebs, said this year’s general elections are going to be the “most secure in modern history.”

On Friday, the head of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, or CISA, stressed that he’s working to patch holes exposed during the 2016 Presidential Election.

Krebs confirmed the agency is partnering with state and local governments to monitor any attempts to infiltrate our election systems. He compared the 2016 election to the Sputnik launch in 1957 by saying both events shook up the American public.

“That missile — that ICBM effectively — that put Sputnik into space demonstrated an ability to reach out and touch us,” he stated. “2016, I think, was sort of a similar wake up call…this was truly an affront to the American people because it demonstrated the potentiality to undermine democracy at large.”
