President Donald Trump posthumously presented the Presidential Medal of Freedom to conservative activist Charlie Kirk on October 14, 2025, during a ceremony in the White House Rose Garden. The award, accepted by Kirk's widow Erika, honors the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder who was assassinated in Utah last month. The event coincided with what would have been Kirk's 32nd birthday.
