Donald Trump has addressed the nation, and the world, this evening.
The President held the White House press conference at 2pm EST today (7 pm BST).
Before the conference, Trump's Press Secretary, Karoline Leavitt revealed some information relating to the nature of the speech saying: “The President will be making an exciting announcement related to the Department of Defense.”
However in actual fact, Trump's announcement was in regards to the Space Command HQ moving to Alabama.
This will move the US Space Command from Colorado to Alabama, or as Trump himself called it in his address: "Rocket City".
This decision ends a a turf war between Alabama and Colorado who have been both fighting for the US Space Command.
