President-elect Donald Trump will huddle with allies and a Republican cause célèbre at Saturday's Army-Navy football game, a chance to take in one of most stories rivalries in college sports while spotlighting his emerging national security team.
Trump is expected to be joined by Vice President-elect JD Vance, embattled Pentagon pick Pete Hegseth, potential backup defense option Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and others for the 125th matchup between service academies. Elon Musk is also expected to attend.
Also planning to attend is Daniel Penny, a military veteran who was acquitted of criminally negligent homicide this week in the chokehold death of an agitated subway rider in New York. Penny was invited by Vance, who accused prosecutors of trying to "ruin" Penny's life by charging the Marine veteran in the death of Jordan Neely in 2023.
