The assassination of Charlie Kirk, a prominent conservative activist and close associate of former President Donald Trump, has sent shockwaves through the American political landscape. Kirk, 31, was shot during a lecture at the University of Utah, succumbing to his injuries at the scene.
Trump has condemned the killing as a heinous political act, vowing to posthumously award Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor. Meanwhile, the FBI has recovered the weapon used in the murder.
