Trump to posthumously award Charlie Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom

Trump announced he will posthumously award Charlie Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom, calling him a “giant of his generation” and praising his influence on young conservatives. He made the announcement during a 9/11 memorial service at the Pentagon. Authorities said the shooter escaped after firing a single shot, but a high-powered rifle was recovered along with images of a suspect believed to be college-aged. The Medal of Freedom is the highest U.S. civilian honor, recognizing exceptional contributions to the nation. (Source)
