There is something special about hearing stories of true patriotism from the generation that lived it.
Today I spent the afternoon at the American Legion giving away free American flags, helping our community check their voter registration status, and having conversations that reminded me just how much this country is worth fighting for.
Some of the greatest lessons are not found online. They are found sitting across the table from those who have served, sacrificed, and never stopped loving America. 🇺🇸

Coffee shop to coffee shop, one conversation at a time. 🇺🇸
So many great conversations today, especially at this little gem, Milk & Honey. The worship music, the faith filled atmosphere, and the opportunity to encourage people to fly the flag and make their voices heard made for a pretty great day.
Fly the flag. Know your neighbors. Love your community.

My favorite way to beat the Arizona heat? Hopping from coffee shop to coffee shop, having real conversations with people in my community. ☕️
There is nothing better than meeting new people, hearing their stories, and making sure everyone is registered to vote.

Hey everyone! Just a reminder to get out and vote today! 🗳️ It’s super important because every vote matters, your voice can influence decisions on education, healthcare, and our environment. Together, we can take back Arizona and our country! Let’s make our voices heard for Charlie and the future we believe in. 🇺🇸
Our chapter made a huge donation of water, sunscreen, and soap last week during our July event. Making a real world impact outside of activism can be very important and it builds trust with the people that live around us.
AS FOR US AND OUR HOUSE WE WILL SERVE THE LORD!
After a VERY long week, our fearless leader @MrsErikaKirk sits down with students. Breaks bread with our @tpusastudents, has one on one conversations with our students, and delivers a beautiful and vulnerable conversation to close out the Chapter Leadership Summit!

“We do the best events in the movement. It’s early mornings and late nights, but we all know we are doing something rewarding. How blessed are we that we get to be here celebrating the country and this is our job?”
- Charlie Kirk
One of my favorite things about our conferences is getting to see everyone! We really are a family at @TPUSA and being able to pick up right where we left off after months spread out across the country is definitely a highlight.
Special shoutout to my team at CLS in General Session! Some of you I had never met before and absolutely loved getting to know! Yall worked so hard to give our students the best experience and it showed!
See you at AMFEST!

As I leave DC, I can’t help but feel incredibly hopeful
Thousands of students stepped up this weekend, reminding me that Charlie Kirk built something far bigger than himself, or any one of us
Our theme this year was, “His Legacy. Your Voice.”
This weekend, thousands of new voices have emerged to carry that legacy forward
The torch has been passed and we’ll be alongside these students every step of the way. Thank God for @MrsErikaKirk & @TPUSA 🇺🇸
Thank you @SecWar! So many of our students have raved about the opportunity to sit and hear you speak to them. To take time to pour into them about the way each of them can make an impact everyday on campus and in their communities!

“ CLS was such a privilege to attend. This changed the game for me and I learned so many valuable lessons to bring back to make my chapter and the movement stronger. I made lifelong friends that I will miss dearly and I was able to network with so many like-minded conservatives. Having the opportunity to experience Washington, D.C. close up was something I will cherish forever.”

‼️ CLS Student Testimonial!!
“ First I want to say thank you for giving me the chance to come to CLS… Coming into this weekend I was really nervous about being the lone wolf so to say in my chapter. I know I haven’t worked super hard to get my chapter off and running, and I really wanna make Charlie proud. Listening to all the speakers especially @MrsErikaKirk , and @AndrewSypher, I feel called to really kick it in to high gear. One thing I learned is not to be afraid of what everyone says about me or my beliefs. I need to stand strong just like Charlie did. I do not want to hide or feel afraid of what others can do, and as Charlie said “ build the machine”. The amount of work put in to it by all the other chapters gave me the determination to make my chapter amazing. I also learned that my school cannot scare me into not going all in. I want to get even more involved in politics and share how CLS has really changed my perspective. I want to continue to grow with Turning Point and hopefully soon work with you all. CLS has changed my life and I am forever grateful.”

I could see it from the back of the room - thousands of @tpusastudents remained standing during her entire speech. She has the respect of every student, and every student has her respect.
The entire tone and energy of Erika's speech today rocked the core of everyone in the room, and I hope you feel something.
This is a woman who truly loved her husband. She loved what he built, and has, as a wife is to be obedient to her husband, continued to carry on Charlie's mission, along with the 2500+ students in Washington, D.C. this weekend.
Charlie... I know you are watching us, your children, your wife, and we miss you. I miss you.
We have no greater honor to carry on what he's built. I am honored, Charlie. Onward.
With God's Strength, for Charlie. ❤️🇺🇲

“I was super anxious going into the weekend between traveling "solo" and not having a connection to anyone else that was going yet. By the time I got to the airport in phx the first day and met new friends at the gate almost all the anxiety was gone. I made some fantastic friends, both from schools in AZ and other states…. It really gave me hopes on building our exec board and chapter this upcoming semester. As crazy as some of the lines got for events the organization was pretty stellar for having as many students as there were.”

ERIKA KIRK: "So you have the internet coming after you. You have them slandering your name. You have them saying all this trash about you. And what do you do? You wake up that next morning. You put on the armor of God and you keep going!"
Amen, Erika. Amen
So incredibly proud of my students at Grand Canyon University! They have poured so much into building their chapter over the past year, and this weekend their hard work was recognized at the CLS Student Awards.
🏆 GCU earned the #1 conference representation in the nation!
Watching these students lead with excellence and invest in their campus has been such a privilege. The future is bright!
