JUST IN: Pres. Trump is planning to attend

President Donald Trump has announced his plans to attend the Super Bowl taking place this Sunday in New Orleans. This marks a historic occasion as he will be the first sitting president to attend the esteemed game.

This year’s Super Bowl 59 is between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles. It promises to be an exciting game, drawing fans from all over the country to New Orleans.

The city, still recovering from the tragic events of a terror attack last month, is gearing up to host this major event. On New Year’s Day, a terrorist incident involved a tragic truck attack on Bourbon Street, resulting in the loss of 14 lives and many injuries.

In light of this, there have been heightened concerns about security for both the game and its surrounding festivities. However, officials have reassured the public that there are no credible threats at this time.

Kristi Noem, Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, addressed reporters in New Orleans, saying, “Right now we have no specific credible threats to this event … which I think should give us all a sense of security.”

Noem emphasized the importance of security, noting that the city and various agencies are taking all necessary precautions to ensure safety.

“We recognize the importance of making sure that we’re doing due diligence and being prepared for events as proactive as possible,” she explained. The focus is on deploying resources and forming partnerships that will help ensure the safety and security of all involved.

As the community prepares for this iconic event, there’s a sense of excitement and optimism mixed with a clear focus on maintaining safety for everyone attending the Super Bowl and its associated celebrations. New Orleans, known for its vibrant culture and resilience, is ready to welcome fans and host an unforgettable event.
