Erika Kirk, Trump Reflect on Charlie Kirk's Life at Emotional Medal Ceremony – RedState

President Donald Trump and Charlie Kirk’s widow, Erika Kirk, reflected on the late founder of Turning Point USA’s life while he was honored posthumously with the Presidential Medal of Freedom at an emotional ceremony on Tuesday.





In a ceremony held in the White House Rose Garden on a beautiful day, Trump said it was his privilege to award Kirk with our Nation’s highest civilian honor.

“Today we are here to honor and remember a fearless warrior for America’s history for liberty,” Trump said. “A beloved leader who galvanized the next generation like nobody I have ever seen before.”

“And an American patriot of the deepest conviction, the finest quality, and the highest caliber, the late, great Charlie Kirk,” he added, as the audience erupted in applause. 

President Trump said he wouldn’t miss the ceremony for anything and had to race back across the globe after signing the historic peace deal in the Middle East to be there in time.





Trump then reflected on the demonic act of the murder of Kirk by an assassin’s bullet on September 10 on the campus of Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah.

“Charlie was a champion in every way; he didn’t like losing…He was assassinated in the prime of his life for boldly speaking the truth, for living his faith and relentlessly fighting for a better and stronger America.”

“He loved this country and that’s why it’s my privilege to posthumously award Charles James Kirk, our nation’s highest civilian honor, the Presidential Medal of Freedom,” he added.

Today, Charlie would have been celebrating his 32nd birthday, and when Erika took to the podium, she called being honored with the Presidential Medal of Freedom the best birthday gift he could ever have, while holding back tears.





“Honestly, President Trump, I have spent 7.5 years trying to find the perfect birthday gift for Charlie…but now I can say with confidence, Mr. President, that you have given him the best birthday gift he could ever have.” 

While Erika kept it together for most of the speech, she did get emotional a few times, especially when she shared with Charlie their 3-year-old daughter’s wish for Daddy’s birthday.

‘Happy Birthday, Daddy. I want to give you a stuffed animal. I want you to eat a cupcake with ice cream and go have a birthday surprise. I love you,’ that’s what she said…I know you are celebrating in heaven today, but gosh, we miss you, and we love you, and we promise we will make you proud.”

Following the ceremony, the White House sent out a release calling October 14, 2025, a “National Day of Remembrance for Charlie Kirk.”

It read, in part:

Today, on what would have been his 32nd birthday, our Nation honors the loving memory of Charlie Kirk.  We offer our condolences to his beautiful wife, Erika, and two precious children.  We call on every American to pray for peace in our public square. Above all, we renew our resolve to always defend our principles of truth, faith, and the open exchange of ideas.





Kirk’s widow has truly been a sign of strength, love, and grace. We are so blessed to have her guiding the country and her husband’s movement during this difficult time after his murder.

On April 12, 2021, a Knoxville police officer shot and killed an African American male student in a bathroom at Austin-East High School. The incident caused social unrest, and community members began demanding transparency about the shooting, including the release of the officer’s body camera video. On the evening of April 19, 2021, the Defendant and a group of protestors entered the Knoxville City-County Building during a Knox County Commission meeting. The Defendant activated the siren on a bullhorn and spoke through the bullhorn to demand release of the video. Uniformed police officers quickly escorted her and six other individuals out of the building and arrested them for disrupting the meeting. The court upheld defendants’ conviction for “disrupting a lawful meeting,” defined as “with the intent to prevent [a] gathering, … substantially obstruct[ing] or interfere[ing] with the meeting, procession, or gathering by physical action or verbal utterance.” Taken in the light most favorable to the State, the evidence shows that the Defendant posted on Facebook the day before the meeting and the day of the meeting that the protestors were going to “shut down” the meeting. During the meeting, the Defendant used a bullhorn to activate a siren for approximately twenty seconds. Witnesses at trial described the siren as “loud,” “high-pitched,” and “alarming.” Commissioner Jay called for “Officers,” and the Defendant stated through the bullhorn, “Knox County Commission, your meeting is over.” Commissioner Jay tried to bring the meeting back into order by banging his gavel, but the Defendant continued speaking through the bullhorn. Even when officers grabbed her and began escorting her out of the Large Assembly Room, she continued to disrupt the meeting by yelling for the officers to take their hands off her and by repeatedly calling them “murderers.” Commissioner Jay called a ten-minute recess during the incident, telling the jury that it was “virtually impossible” to continue the meeting during the Defendant’s disruption. The Defendant herself testified that the purpose of attending the meeting was to disrupt the Commission’s agenda and to force the Commission to prioritize its discussion on the school shooting. Although the duration of the disruption was about ninety seconds, the jury was able to view multiple videos of the incident and concluded that the Defendant substantially obstructed or interfered with the meeting. The evidence is sufficient to support the Defendant’s conviction. Defendant also claimed the statute was “unconstitutionally vague as applied to her because the statute does not state that it includes government meetings,” but the appellate court concluded that she had waived the argument by not raising it adequately below. Sean F. McDermott, Molly T. Martin, and Franklin Ammons, Assistant District Attorneys General, represent the state.
