Freedom is not a theory, it's a testimony.
Every single day the Trump Administration will continue to carry out the mission for which Charlie Kirk lived.
For Charlie. ❤️
Charlie Kirk was assassinated in the prime of his life for speaking the truth, living his faith, & relentlessly fighting for America.
That is why today President Trump posthumously awarded Charlie Kirk our nation's highest civilian honor, the Presidential Medal of Freedom. 🇺🇸
Never has a president stood up so bravely for the American people with respect to healthcare. Because of your leadership, President Trump, we will get Most Favored Nation done.
If you watch one thing today, let it be this — the truly remarkable display of grace and compassion from Mrs. Erika Kirk as she forgives her husband's assassin because that's what Christ would do.
We love you, Erika.
Charlie lived his life as a warrior for truth and freedom.
Every day, stepping into the arena,
armed with the Constitution.
sparring through debate
on the battlefield of ideas
for the heart of our democratic republic
and our unalienable rights
endowed on us by our Creator.
Charlie lived what our founders envisioned:
freedom means the right to speak, even when we disagree.
I may not agree with what you say.
But I will defend — with my very life — your right to speak.
Free speech is the foundation of our democratic republic
without it, we will be lost
we must protect it at all cost
Charlie stood in the arena, armed with superior arguments, truth, reason.
propelled and motivated by love for God, love for others,
love for our country His words were his weapons—
to defeat ignorance, to cut through lies,
to awaken minds, inspire hearts, gain wisdom
Charlie spoke with a calm courage.
Not asking, “What will God do for me?”
Instead, saying: “God, use me for Your will.”
He showed respect and compassion, even for those who opposed him.
He wanted people to understand the truth.
For it is the truth that sets us free. It is the truth that keeps us free.
Our schools are meant to teach, to train students to think critically, debate ideas,
Test their strength in the clash of reason.
But too often, the system silences debate
Claiming "words are violence"
Dissenting voices are silenced
Those who speak of God,
speak of objective truth, like there are only two genders,
are told they have no voice.
He challenged those institutions, students, and faculty to speak honestly, debate openly, and think critically. And he was winning.
It was because he was winning that the forces of darkness tried to silence him.
History shows this dark pattern:
when ideas cannot withstand scrutiny —
whether its the ideology of religious or political fanatics —
their defenders turn to intimidation, censorship, and violence.
They kill and terrorize their opponents and the truth into silence.
But even in this evil
their flawed ideology is revealed
By trying to silence Charlie, they have achieved the opposite, 1000x over.
Charlie's message and example is more powerful and impactful than ever before.
The truths he spoke have spread a hundredfold.
And where did Charlie’s fearlessness come from?
The answer lies in Corinthians:
“Therefore, being always of good courage, and knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord… we are of good courage, I say, and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord. Therefore we also have as our ambition, whether at home or absent, to be pleasing to Him.”
Our call to action now
every one of us needs to be a warrior like Charlie
Take shelter in God.
Draw strength and fearlessness from the Lord in our hearts.
Stand together, and continue the mission Charlie dedicated his life to
Carry the torch that shines the light of God's love
sharpen our weapons of truth
Common sense, reason
Study. Learn. Speak.
If you are afraid, confused, angry or lost.
Don't be.
God says, "Do not be afraid, I am with you. I will strengthen you, and help you."
Charlie's prayer is our prayer:
God, use me for your will.
Now is the time to step in the arena
and become warriors for Freedom and our Constitution.
