Charlie Kirk, a liberal commentator and the leader of Turning Point USA, was appointed on Monday to the board of directors of the U.S. Air Force Academy.
Trump stated in a post on Truth Social that he would shortly had an “incredible Board of Visitors” made up of Senator Tommy Tuberville, Senator Tommy Clark, Charlie Kirk, and Dina Powell for the U.S. Air Force Academy. To everyone’s happiness.
Kirk wrote,” Bless you, Mr. President,” in a picture of the 47th government’s Truth Social post on X, which was previously Twitter. The American people deserve support organizations with the sole intention of developing the best recruits in the world to defend this nation and her freedoms. I am grateful for the opportunity to work with President Trump to carry out this goal.
The Board of Visitors to the U.S. Air Force Academy is categorized under Title 10 U.S. Code 9455, which lists the different meetings for the Board of Visitors, according to the U.S. Air Force Academy website.

I appreciate it, Mr. President.”
