Charlie Kirk, the American activist murdered for speaking freely, was remembered Sunday, September 22, 2025, 12 days after his death. Attending were the luminaries of the American activist world, from conservatives to libertarians to classical liberals. That list included President Donald Trump, who at one point was joined by another high-profile attendee, Elon Musk.
The mood of the service was forgiveness and mercy on one hand, in the form of Charlie Kirk’s widow, Erica Kirk, who offered forgiveness to her killer, but determination to protect and defend America and Americanism, and bring to justice those who have been seeking to overthrow her from within. A new movement is emerging that is equally Christian, but not exclusively, and American, exclusively. Even a failed attempt by the left to smuggle in an assassin also failed to dampen the spirit of hope and resolve that characterized the memorial.
