BE.BREAKING NEWS – WHITE HOUSE SHOCKING EVENT: President Trump Posthumously Awards Charlie Kirk Medal of Freedom on His 32nd Birthday, Phil Mickelson Cries, Calls It a “Moment of Truth and Honor”, Conservatives Erupt in Pride, Mainstream Media Confused by Charlie’s Enduring Influence on American Youth – A Memorial Ceremony Becomes a National Cultural Fever!
Washington, D.C. — On the morning of October 14, 2025 — what would have been Charlie Kirk’s 32nd birthday if he were still alive — the White House was filled with pomp and ceremony as President Donald Trump awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom to the late American conservative activist, who had died in an assassination attempt just a month earlier. The event sent shockwaves through American politics, the media, and social media. Among the many emotional remarks was one from golf legend Phil Mickelson, who called it “a moment of truth and honor,” and said Kirk’s influence on young Americans would be remembered for years to come.
🎖️ Kirk’s Medal of Freedom: A Symbolic Act
The event was held in the White House Rose Garden, where sunlight streamed through the trees and onto the faces of those in attendance — including conservative leaders, political allies, family, and supporters. The medal was awarded posthumously — a decision that was politically charged but also deeply symbolic.
President Trump moved many in his speech when he called Kirk a “fearless freedom fighter,” “a hero for freedom,” and “an inspiration to a generation of young people.”
Erika Kirk — Charlie’s wife — accepted the medal on her husband’s behalf, her eyes welling up and her voice cracking as she thanked the President and affirmed that the gift was “the most beautiful birthday” for him.
A highlight: The medal ceremony took place on Kirk’s memorial birthday, marking a milestone in remembrance of his life and legacy.
🏌️♂️ Phil Mickelson – words from an unexpected, but powerful person
Amidst the applause and praise, Phil Mickelson — who is well-known in the sports field, rarely directly involved in politics — stepped up and offered his deep support. In his statement, he called the ceremony “a moment of truth and honor,” and affirmed that Kirk deserved to be honored.
“His presence and message will live forever, but I still wish he were here. This award is well deserved.”
These words are not just personal statements, but affirmation that sports celebrities can also stand aside from politics to emphasize values — not for personal gain, but because they believe in a greater calling.
Mickelson’s statement appeared in an atmosphere of political tension, when many people criticized or questioned the use of death to politicize. But Mickelson chose to side with the honors — which made his words stand out and be noticed all the more.
🔍 Public reaction and political fall
The awarding of the medal was not without controversy. For supporters, it was a well-deserved recognition, a testament to the political climate Kirk once represented. For opponents, it could be a way to politicize death and inflame divisions.
One notable move that accompanied the event: The US State Department announced it was revoking the visas of six foreign nationals for social media posts praising or mocking Kirk’s death. This action sparked debate about free speech, especially for foreigners.
In addition, the US Congress had previously passed a resolution declaring October 14 as “National Charlie Kirk Memorial Day” — an educational and symbolic approach in conservative politics.
In her speech, Erika Kirk revealed that if Kirk were alive, he might have run for president — not out of personal ambition, but out of duty to the country.
The reaction on social media was also fierce: supporters used Mickelson’s remarks as leverage for Kirk’s recognition. While opponents criticized the awarding of the medal to a controversial figure with exceptional policies on rights, religion, and LGBTQ+.
