0


Daniel Penny — a veteran who was recently acquitted of all charges after protecting innocent people on a subway from a drugged-up, mentally unstable homeless man — will be joining President Trump and VP JD Vance in their private suite during the upcoming Army-Navy game.

The game is set to happen on Saturday afternoon.

Penny accepted JD Vance’s invite to be his “personal guest” at the game.

This will be a historic moment.

Here’s JD Vance’s confirmation:

The New York Post reported:

Daniel Penny, the man recently acquitted in the chokehold death of Jordan Neely, will be the personal guest of Vice President-elect JD Vance at the Army-Navy football game scheduled for Saturday.

Penny is expected to join Vance and President-elect Donald Trump in his suite at the game set in Landover, Maryland, according to a report shared by Vance Friday. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is also expected to join Trump and Vance in the same suite for the annual grudge match, per multiple reports.

“Daniel’s a good guy, and New York’s mob district attorney tried to ruin his life for having a backbone,” Vance wrote on X. “I’m grateful he accepted my invitation and hope he’s able to have fun and appreciate how much his fellow citizens admire his courage.”

Penny’s attorney, Thomas Kenniff, said Vance texted him to congratulate them, which is when he invited Penny to the game.

“We were all shocked,” Kenniff said. “Danny’s first reaction was that ‘there are a lot of veterans more deserving than me’. Steve Raiser and I responded, that you don’t say no to the incoming Vice President of the United States.”

“Danny looks forward to attending,” Kenniff added.

Penny, 26, was acquitted of all charges this week related to the killing of Neely, a homeless man, in May of 2023. Neely was threatening passengers on a subway car in New York City and Penny intervened by putting him in a chokehold.

Fox News added:

Vice President-elect JD Vance confirmed Friday that Daniel Penny, the Marine veteran found not guilty in the subway chokehold death of Jordan Neely, has officially accepted his invitation to be his guest at the annual Army-Navy game in Landover, Maryland.

NOTUS reporter Reese Gorman first reported that Penny had been invited early Friday morning, adding that he would join President-elect Donald Trump in his suite at Northwest Stadium, the home of the Washington Commanders.

Vance responded on social media confirming Penny’s attendance.

“I’m grateful he accepted my invitation and hope he’s able to have fun and appreciate how much his fellow citizens admire his courage.”

Penny, 26, was charged with manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide for the May 2023 subway chokehold death of Neely, a 30-year-old homeless man with schizophrenia who had barged onto the train shouting death threats while high on a type of synthetic marijuana known as K2.

I couldn’t think of a better guest of honor.

These folks seem to agree:
