GLENDALE, AZ – Thousands are set to attend today’s memorial service for the late Charlie Kirk.
The service, which will be held at State Farm Stadium, will celebrate the life of the fallen Turning Point USA founder, who was assassinated less than two weeks ago.
Joining his widow, Erika, in speaking are President Donald Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance, White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, Donald Trump Jr., Tucker Carlson, White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller and Director of the White House Presidential Personnel Office Sergio Gor.
Worship will be led by singer Chris Tomlin and others, with performances by Lee Greenwood and Steve Amerson.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox News Channel that the White House is taking ‘two planes full of White House staff” to the memorial service, which ‘speaks to how many people he (Charlie Kirk) touched at the highest levels of our government.’
The Department of Homeland Security has enhanced security for the memorial service, designating the event as ‘Level 1 Special Event,’ the highest category reserved for events ‘of national significance.’
