"A giant of his generation. An American hero and a martyr for freedom. He changed history." This is what US President Donald Trump said at Charlie Kirk's farewell ceremony, in front of 200,000 people who came from all over America to honor the activist's memory at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, where he was born.

Trump said Kirk was killed "because he spoke the truth in his heart."

"He was brutally murdered because he spoke for freedom and justice, for God, for country, for reason and for common sense," Trump said.

Greeted by a standing ovation in the stadium, the president spoke about his Charlie, the man who managed to reunite him with Elon Musk. The president was photographed in the stands chatting amicably with his former best friend after a violent breakup marked by attacks and criticism. Trump took the stage with a rallying tone, speaking for more than 40 minutes. He recalled the key role the activist played in his victory in the White House and the courage with which he spoke on campuses.

Meanwhile, Erika Kirk, the activist's widow, took the stage with her hands raised to the sky, as the entire stadium applauded. She vowed to continue her husband's mission and said she forgave her husband's killer.

"I forgive this man, this young man. I forgive him because that's what Christ did and that's what Charlie would do. My husband, Charlie, wanted to save young people, just like the man who took his life. I forgive that young man. The response to hate is nothing but hate," said Erica Kirk.

Nearly the entire Trump administration came out to commemorate the activist. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. compared him to Jesus. Secretary of State Marco Rubio praised his “enormous impact” before calling it a “political assassination.” JD Vance described “friend Charlie” as a “martyr for the faith” whom “they tried to silence.”

He was Athens and Jerusalem in one person," that is, the capital of reason and of God. "He loved his country and loved it so much that he died for it. In Charlie Kirk, we had found a leader," he added.

Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth described him as a “hero who fought not with a gun but with a microphone,” while the Director of National Intelligence described him as a “fighter for truth and freedom.” “We will finish his work and achieve victory in his name. Light will overcome darkness: we will win,” said Stephen Miller, Trump’s deputy chief of staff and adviser, the architect of the immigration crackdown, in combative tones.

Donald Trump Jr. used the same tone: "To me, he was like a brother. We are all Charlie,'" the president's son shouted from the stage. "We will not be afraid. Our message of faith and family will not be silenced," he added.

The ceremony ended with Trump and Erika Kirk embracing on stage, as the president chanted his slogan 'fight, fight, fight', assuring them that the battle on Charlie's behalf will continue.
