Trump appoints Charlie Kirk's widow to Air Force Academy board
President Donald Trump has appointed Erika Kirk, the widow of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, to be one of 16 people to sit on the Air Force Academy's Board of Visitors.
As a board member, Erika Kirk will make recommendations to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth about potential changes at the Air Force Academy. Her husband also served on the board before being assassinated.
"It's imperative that these cadets know that we are the greatest nation ever," Charlie Kirk said during an August board meeting before his death.
A spokesperson for TPUSA told The Denver Gazette that Erika Kirk was not available for comment.
The Gazette noted that the "board did not announce her appointment. But her name now appears on the list of members."
Erika Kirk also took over as CEO of TPUSA following her husband's killing.
