President Trump tweeted out the formerly classified name of the Belgian Malinois that chased down ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, and announced the heroic dog will be visiting the White House next week.
“Thank you Daily Wire,” the president tweeted, referencing the source of the viral meme. “Very cute recreation, but the ‘live’ version of Conan will be leaving the Middle East for the White House sometime next week!”

Speculation has swirled regarding the name of the dog that led one of the world’s leading terrorists to detonate his suicide vest in terror as he was chased to the end of a dead-end tunnel. With his latest tweet, the president has confirmed the dog’s name is Conan.

Trump took flak on Wednesday from some media figures on social media, who denounced him for tweeting a doctored image depicting him giving a Medal of Honor to the valiant canine.
I’ve requested details from the @WhiteHouse on this photo.
There was no such canine event on today’s @POTUS schedule but there is a Medal of Honor ceremony set here for later today for an active duty Green Beret. https://t.co/NESINT9J4b— Steve Herman (@W7VOA) October 30, 2019
