President Trump announced Monday that he will award Rudy Giuliani the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor.
“As President of the United States of America, I am pleased to announce that Rudy Giuliani, the greatest Mayor in the history of New York City, and an equally great American Patriot, will receive THE PRESIDENTIAL MEDAL OF FREEDOM, our Country’s highest civilian honor,” Mr. Trump said in a social media post. “Details as to time and place to follow. Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”
Mr. Trump’s announcement comes days after Giuliani was hospitalized with multiple broken bones following a car crash in New Hampshire. Giuliani suffered “fractured thoracic vertebrae, multiple lacerations and contusions, as well as injuries to his left arm and lower leg” after the vehicle he was riding in was “struck from behind at high speed,” his spokesperson said.
