President Donald Trump will honor late conservative activist Charlie Kirk on Tuesday with the Presidential Medal of Freedom award at the White House.
Fresh off a historic trip to Israel and Egypt and following the release of Israeli hostages by Hamas, the president will turn to domestic issues as the fallout of political violence continues to reverberate across the nation.
Trump claimed the ceremony, which will be held in the East Room, would be “a great celebration” and include an appearance by Erika Kirk, the widow of the late Turning Point USA cofounder and the organization’s newest CEO.
