Tuesday, September 23, 2025 -At a memorial service in Glendale, Arizona, Donald Trump hailed conservative activist Charlie Kirk as a “martyr for American freedom.”
The September 21, 2025, event at State Farm Stadium drew thousands and blended religious themes with political speeches.
Trump, joined by Vice President JD Vance and Kirk’s widow Erika, blamed the “radical left” for fostering an environment that led to Kirk’s killing. He framed the attack as part of a broader ideological struggle in the U.S.
Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, was shot dead on September 10 while speaking at Utah Valley University. Authorities have charged a suspect, though the motive remains under investigation.
