The Town of Newtown, Conn., spent almost $1.4 million on the abatement and demolition of the former Sandy Hook Elementary School.

Construction crews recently finished demolition, which cost $850,000, according to a press release issued Thursday by the town. Additionally, abatement cost $1.3 million.

The process of building a new elementary school in the town will likely begin this year in the late summer or early fall months. Residents voted last October to raze the structure and reconstruct a new academic building on a modified version of the former site. Nothing will stand where a gunman killed 26 individuals in December 2012.

“We will confront what we have to confront and get it behind us,” First Selectman Pat Llodra said during a press conference held in Newtown ahead of the one-year mark last month. “We have the capacity to handle whatever it is we have to handle … I still think we are all in this together.”

DHS Drops Startling Facts on CNN After Network’s Attempt to Discredit POTUS

by Team Bongino December 14, 2018

CNN’s attempt to “fact check” President Trump on terrorists attempting to enter the U.S. hit a snag on Wednesday when the Department of Homeland Security provided the so-called news network with some disturbing facts.

It all began on Tuesday during Trump’s epic meeting with Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Sen Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) when the president claimed that DHS recently apprehended “10 terrorists” attempting to make their way into the United States.

“People are pouring into our country, including terrorists…,” said Trump. “We caught 10 terrorists over the last very short period of time. Ten. These are very serious people. Our border agents, all of our law enforcement has been incredible with what they’ve done. But we caught 10 terrorists. These are people that were looking to do harm,” he continued.

Never wanting to miss an opportunity to embarrass the president, CNN decided to “fact check” President Trump’s comment with correspondent Jim Sciutto stating, “DHS did not provide evidence of a single terrorist caught at the southern border over the very last short period of time as the president claimed.”

Despite CNN claiming they reached out to DHS, Homeland Security Spokesman Tyler Q. Houlton took to Twitter and told CNN “you never reached out.”

Houlton continued, “In fact, DHS prevented 3,755 known or suspected terrorists from traveling to or entering the U.S. in FY 17. That’s in addition to 17,526 criminals, 1,019 gang members, and 3,028 special interest aliens. #FactsFirst”
