Thousands wait outside State Farm Stadium in Arizona for Charlie Kirk memorial

Thousands of people wait for hours outside State Farm Stadium in Glendale Arizona for the memorial service of Charlie Kirk, assassinated on a college campus in Utah.

President Donald Trump and prominent members of his "Make America Great Again" movement will pay tribute Sunday to conservative activist Charlie Kirk, whose slaying has marked a signal moment in America's fraught political atmosphere.

The memorial service for Kirk, whom Trump credits with playing a pivotal role in his 2024 election victory, is expected to draw tens of thousands of mourners, including Vice President JD Vance, senior White House officials and young conservatives shaped by the 31-year-old firebrand.
