Trump Posthumously Awards Charlie Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom
President Trump awarded Charlie Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom posthumously on what would have been his 32nd birthday. The ceremony took place in the White House Rose Garden, with Erika Kirk accepting the award and delivering emotional remarks about her late husband's legacy. Trump hailed Kirk as a 'fearless warrior for liberty' and a 'true American hero.' Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA, was fatally shot on Sept. 10 during a speaking engagement. The House and Senate had previously designated Kirk's birthday, Oct. 14, as a 'National Day of Remembrance.'
