Trump will award Charlie Kirk a Presidential Medal of Freedom

President Donald Trump announced today he would soon award Charlie Kirk a Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor awarded by the president.

Trump said the ceremony honoring the slain conservative activist would be large. “I can only guarantee you one thing: That will have a very big crowd,” Trump said.

The president was speaking outside the Pentagon at a ceremony honoring the 24th anniversary of the September 11 terror attacks.

Trump opened his remarks by remembering Kirk, who was a close political ally and a personal friend to many Trump advisers.

He's milking this for all it's worth.

1. I believe they changed the name to The Fascist Iron Cross First Class. nt

3. I was thinking "The Trump Memorial Butt Plug". How many dead fascists have one now?

2. This really has the feel of something pre-planned. Kind of like the Kirov assassination in the Soviet Union.

TACO was certainly ready to spring into action.

4. You Should Never Say Bad Things About the Dead

You should only say good. Charlie Kirk is dead. Good.

5. A complete travesty. Traitors and criminals get the highest American honors.

6. No real honor

Everyone knows deep in their hearts that the Presidential Medal of Freedom means nothing coming from the orange one. My sincere hope is that all of these “honors” will appear with an asterix in the not too distant future.
