Keep leading @SLOTUS! Helping kids learn to read is one of the single biggest things we can do to improve education and unlock the door to opportunity for all

[Attorney General Catherine L. Hanaway @AGCHanaway]

This morning, our hearts are heavy. Two brave Christian County deputies were killed and two more were injured in the line of duty. We pray for these officers, the families grieving this tragedy, and the brothers and sisters in blue who served alongside them.

We stand firmly behind the heroes who put their lives on the line to protect our state every day.

[Josh Hawley @HawleyMO]

We are on a mission from God to protect liberty

[Josh Hawley @HawleyMO]

Are you willing to trade the world for Jesus Christ?

That’s the question.

He’s not interested in our strength; He’s interested in our surrender

[Hannah Kelly @HannahKellyMO]

My privilege.🇺🇸🙏

Thank you @HannahKellyMO for working for conservative values in Missouri!

[Anna Lulis @annamlulis]

Erika Kirk is an inspiration.

She chose forgiveness over revenge.

She chose love over hate.

She chose Christ.

God bless her.

[Rep. Mark Alford @RepMarkAlford]

This cycle of violence must end.

Leslie and I are praying for the midshipmen and staff at the Naval Academy, as well as their loved ones. our office will continue to monitor the situation in Annapolis.

We also pray our fellow Americans turn to their faith in God during these troubling times.

We are making contact with three families from the fourth district whose loved ones we nominated to the academy, as well as @SpeakerJohnson, whose son is a midshipman.

I am grateful to Governor Spencer Cox, Utah law enforcement, Kash Patel, and the FBI for giving this case the time, resources, and hard work it deserved. This is a big breakthrough, and everyone who helped--from the law enforcement professionals to the people giving tips--deserves our credit and gratitude.

In some ways, the investigation is still in the early days. But I do believe we have the shooter in custody.

Say a prayer for Erika Kirk and those two beautiful babies. We took a big step this morning in getting justice for Charlie, and for his family. Thanks be to God for that.

[Terrence K. Williams @w_terrence]

Charlie Kirk’s wife is in this image you see. While some of you mock and celebrate his death, she’s experiencing a level of pain most of us could never imagine. She just lost her husband. Their children just lost their father. A family has been shattered.

Charlie wasn’t just a public figure—he was a man with a wife who loved him and kids who needed him. No matter your politics, no matter your disagreements, celebrating someone’s death is pure evil.

Disagree with his ideas if you want, but don’t forget he was still a human being. A husband. A father. A friend.

If you’re cheering right now, you’re not exposing Charlie, you’re exposing your own lack of humanity.

[Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson]

We wept bitterly putting this together...

Charlie Kirk did not fear death. Charlie told us what his legacy would be. Charlie's greatest passion was his faith in Jesus Christ.

Just hours before he was assassinated, Charlie stood on stage, openly proclaiming his love for Jesus Christ. Unafraid, unwavering, and full of conviction. He lived every moment guided by that faith, and in the end, he was taken home by his Savior.

Charlie is a true Christian martyr.

His example is not just inspiring, it is a call to all of us. To stand firm in our beliefs, to shine light into darkness, speak truth and to live boldly in our faith. Charlie showed us what it means to live, and die, with purpose.

This is the legacy he leaves...

[Sassafrass84 @Sassafrass_84]

It's about 9 minutes long, but this is worth the watch.

Charlie and Erika's love story.

This brought me a smile tonight when the world lost this bright shining light yesterday.

[Tim Tebow @TimTebow]

Evil is real. There is no doubt, the enemy is hard at work.

These last few days, the weight of evil has been heavy across our nation.

But this I know: It will not have the final word. One day, God will make all things right.

Until then, we pray. We weep with those who weep. And we keep fighting, knowing the victory has already been won.

[JD Vance @JDVance]

A while ago, probably in 2017, I appeared on Tucker Carlson's Fox show to talk about God knows what. Afterwards a name I barely knew sent me a DM on twitter and told me I did a great job. It was Charlie Kirk, and that moment of kindness began a friendship that lasted until today.

Charlie was fascinated by ideas and always willing to learn and change his mind. Like me, he was skeptical of Donald Trump in 2016. Like me, he came to see President Trump as the only figure capable of moving American politics away from the globalism that had dominated for our entire lives. When others were right, he learned from them. When he was right--as he usually was--he was generous. With Charlie, the attitude was never, "I told you so." But: "welcome."

Charlie was one of the first people I called when I thought about running for senate in early 2021. I was interested but skeptical there was a pathway. We talked through everything, from the strategy to the fundraising to the grassroots of the movement he knew so well. He introduced me to some of the people who would run my campaign and also to Donald Trump Jr. "Like his dad, he's misunderstood. He's extremely smart, and very much on our wavelength." Don took a call from me because Charlie asked him too.

Long before I ever committed (even in my mind) to running, Charlie had me speak to his donors at a TPUSA event. He walked me around the room and introduced me. He gave me honest feedback on my remarks. He had no reason to do this, no expectation that I'd go anywhere. I was polling, at that point, well below 5 percent. He did it because we were friends, and because he was a good man.

When I became the VP nominee--something Charlie advocated for both in public and private--Charlie was there for me. I was so glad to be part of the president's team, but candidly surprised by the effect it had on our family. Our kids, especially our oldest, struggled with the attention and the constant presence of the protective detail. I felt this acute sense of guilt, that I had conscripted my kids into this life without getting their permission. And Charlie was constantly calling and texting, checking on our family and offering guidance and prayers. Some of our most successful events were organized not by the campaign, but by TPUSA. He wasn't just a thinker, he was a doer, turning big ideas into bigger events with thousands of activists. And after every event, he would give me a big hug, tell me he was praying for me, and ask me what he could do. "You focus on Wisconsin," he'd tell me. "Arizona is in the bag." And it was.

Charlie genuinely believed in and loved Jesus Christ. He had a profound faith. We used to argue about Catholicism and Protestantism and who was right about minor doctrinal questions. Because he loved God, he wanted to understand him.

Someone else pointed out that Charlie died doing what he loved: discussing ideas. He would go into these hostile crowds and answer their questions. If it was a friendly crowd, and a progressive asked a question to jeers from the audience, he'd encourage his fans to calm down and let everyone speak. He exemplified a foundational virtue of our Republic: the willingness to speak openly and debate ideas.

Charlie had an uncanny ability to know when to push the envelope and when to be more conventional. I've seen people attack him for years for being wrong on this or that issue publicly, never realizing that privately he was working to broaden the scope of acceptable debate.

He was a great family man. I was talking to President Trump in the Oval Office today, and he said, "I know he was a very good friend of yours." I nodded silently, and President Trump observed that Charlie really loved his family. The president was right. Charlie was so proud of Erika and the two kids. He was so happy to be a father. And he felt such gratitude for having found a woman of God with whom he could build a family.

Charlie Kirk was a true friend. The kind of guy you could say something to and know it would always stay with him. I am on more than a few group chats with Charlie and people he introduced me to over the years. We celebrate weddings and babies, bust each other's chops, and mourn the loss of loved ones. We talk about politics and policy and sports and life. These group chats include people at the very highest level of our government. They trusted him, loved him, and knew he'd always have their backs. And because he was a true friend ,you could instinctively trust the people Charlie introduced you to. So much of the success we've had in this administration traces directly to Charlie's ability to organize and convene. He didn't just help us win in 2024, he helped us staff the entire government.

I was in a meeting in the West Wing when those group chats started lighting up with people telling Charlie they were praying for him. And that's how I learned the news that my friend had been shot. I prayed a lot over the next hour, as first good news and then bad trickled in.

God didn't answer those prayers, and that's OK. He had other plans. And now that Charlie is in heaven, I'll ask him to talk to big man directly on behalf of his family, his friends, and the country he loved so dearly.

You ran a good race, my friend.

We've got it from here.
