Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump is set to speak in Philadelphia Wednesday.

The billionaire businessman is scheduled to start at 11 a.m. EDT and is expected to address national security and veterans issues to an invited audience. The event, hosted at Union League of Philadelphia, is closed to the general public.

Trump's campaign announced earlier Wednesday that they have ended the controversial media blacklist. The GOP nominee had banned The Washington Post, Politico and Buzzfeed after coverage that was critical of him, according to Reuters.
