Summary

This past Tuesday, President Donald Trump posthumously awarded conservative activist Charlie Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom. On what would have been his 32nd birthday, his family and friends gathered in the Rose Garden as his widow, Erika Kirk, accepted the nation's highest civilian honor on his behalf and spoke about his life and legacy. Turning Point USA Chief Operating Officer Tyler Bowyer attended the White House event honoring his late friend and partner. Bowyer joined FOX News Rundown host Dave Anthony before the ceremony to discuss Kirk’s legacy and how Turning Point has grown dramatically in the past month since Charlie Kirk was assassinated at a TPUSA event in Utah last month. Bowyer also discussed his concerns about political violence and how his organization has increased security in the weeks following Kirk’s death. We often have to cut interviews short during the week, but we thought you might appreciate hearing more of the interview. Today on Fox News Rundown Extra, we will share more of our interview with Tyler Bowyer about Charlie Kirk’s legacy and the future of Turning Point. Learn more about your ad choices.
