On 21 September 2025 in Arizona, at the memorial for conservative activist Charlie Kirk, U.S. President Donald Trump said that without “borders, law, order, and religion,” the country cannot endure, and he called for America’s spiritual renewal.

From the stage at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, eulogies were delivered by Donald Trump, Vice President J. D. Vance, as well as members of the Administration and Kirk’s allies.

“We have to bring back religion to America because without borders, law and order and religion, you really don't have a country anymore. We want God back,” Trump declared, calling Kirk “our greatest evangelist for American liberty.”

Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, played a key role in mobilizing youth support for Republicans and was known as a defender of traditional values.

Earlier, the UOJ wrote that Charlie Kirk’s widow, Erica Kirk, in her remarks underscored her husband’s faith and, citing the Gospel, said: “Christ taught forgiveness, and I forgive my husband’s killer. I forgive him because it was what Christ did and is what Charlie would do.”
