Trump meets 'hero' military dog involved in Baghdadi raid

U.S. President Donald Trump on Monday welcomed the military dog wounded during a raid by U.S. special forces in northwest Syria last month, which killed Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

U.S. PRESIDENT, DONALD TRUMP said "We're very honored to have Conan here and to have given Conan a certificate and an award that we're going to put up in the White House."

U.S. VICE PRESIDENT, MIKE PENCE said  "We were able to complete the raid without any American casualty, and so I think having the special forces here today who obviously can't come out in the public - but also having this extraordinary dog here today is all a reflection of our armed forces and the great job that they do. Conan is really a hero. It's a real joy to be able to help walk him here to the White House with you."

As Trump made his way back toward the White House, he said he still had confidence in acting Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney amid frustration at his team's response to the Democrats' impeachment inquiry.
