People JOKED about Trump giving Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom, posthumously. It's no longer a joke.

Trump posthumously awarded conservative activist Charlie Kirk with the Presidential Medal of Freedom in a ceremony Tuesday.

In remarks, Trump remembered Kirk as an “amazing person” who was “way, way beyond his years.”

“Charlie is attaining a far more important milestone,” Trump said at the ceremony. “We are entering his name forever into the eternal roster of true American heroes. He’s a true American hero.”

The event is being held in the Rose Garden. Erika Kirk, Charlie Kirk’s wife, walked out with Trump, dressed in black, and accepted the medal on her husband’s behalf.

13. I joked about it BRIEFLY. Then I remembered LIMBAUGH.

Didn't come to me immediately, but it came soon after the incident. I saw Limbaugh getting that medal around his neck in my mind's eye, then knew Trump would do this.
