WATCH LIVE: JD Vance Hosts Charlie Kirk Show from the White House – 12 pm ET

Vice President JD Vance will host the Charlie Kirk Show live from the White House this afternoon, five days after the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder’s tragic passing.

Charlie was assassinated by a leftwing terrorist, later identified as 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, during a speaking event at Utah Valley University last Wednesday. The shooter was revealed by law enforcement to have engraved his ammunition casings with Antifa and transgender slogans.

After a 33-hour manhunt, Robinson was turned over to the authorities. It was later revealed that Robinson lived with his romantic partner, Lance Twiggs, a male who was transitioning to a female. Some in pro-trans online circles appeared to have advanced knowledge of the plot and later celebrated the horrific murder, The Gateway Pundit reported.

Vance announced on Sunday that he will guest host a special edition of the Charlie Kirk Show on Monday.

“Please join me as I pay tribute to my friend,” the Vice President said on social media, calling it an “honor.”

Vance and President Trump have spoken out on the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

The President released a powerful video statement on Wednesday, remembering the life of Charlie Kirk, calling him a “martyr for truth and freedom” and condemning the wave of “radical left political violence” in America. “Charlie was a patriot who devoted his life to the cause of open debate and the country that he loved so much—the United States of America,” Trump said, describing the day of his death as a “dark moment for America.”

He added, “Charlie was also a man of deep, deep faith. And we take comfort in the knowledge that he is now at peace with God in heaven.”

Trump further announced on Thursday that he will award Charlie a posthumous Presidential Medal of Freedom, calling him “a giant of his generation, a champion of liberty and an inspiration to millions and millions of people.”

Vice President Vance shared a heartfelt tribute to Kirk and his legacy, telling the story of how he came to know Charlie personally and praising him for his help in winning his race for Senate and advocating for a him to be chosen to serve as Vice President. “He wasn’t just a thinker, he was a doer, turning big ideas into bigger events with thousands of activists,” Vance said of his skillful and powerful leadership and ability to change minds. “He exemplified a foundational virtue of our Republic: the willingness to speak openly and debate ideas.”

Both are expected to attend Kirk’s funeral in Phoenix, Arizona on Sunday.

The stream is scheduled to begin at 12 pm ET.
