President Trump has posthumously awarded Turning Point USA Founder and legendary conservative activist Charlie Kirk with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor, on Tuesday.
The ceremony took place in the White House Rose Garden on what would have been Charlie Kirk’s 32nd birthday. It was supposed to take place indoors due to bad weather, but the President told Charlie's widow, Erika Kirk, that "God was watching, and he didn't want that for Charlie." The White House saw nothing but sunshine for the ceremony.
