Trump to address police chiefs and fundraise in Chicago — live updates

President Trump is in Chicago Monday to speak at the International Association of Chiefs of Police Annual Conference and to hold a fundraiser at his hotel there. 

The trip comes a day after Mr. Trump announced the death of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Mr. Trump described the U.S. operation in Syria, during which the ruthless terrorist “died like a dog,” as the president told reporters in what turned into a small press conference in the White House Diplomatic Room. 

Before boarding Air Force One just outside D.C., the president noted the death of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Mr. Trump said the U.S. may release video of the raid in Syria. 

“Great weekend, we captured a man who should have been captured long ago,” the president said. 

Mr. Trump is slated to speak in Chicago at 11:25 a.m. ET. After he speaks to the chiefs of police, the president will be attending a roundtable fundraiser and will speak at Trump International Hotel & Tower Chicago. The events at the president’s hotel are closed to the media.
