Overview

  • Tens of thousands filled Glendale’s State Farm Stadium for the service, with an overflow plan at Desert Diamond Arena as lines formed before dawn.
  • President Donald Trump, Vice President J.D. Vance, and senior figures including Marco Rubio, Pete Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard, Robert Kennedy Jr., and Tucker Carlson delivered remarks, with a French RN delegation represented by Louis Aliot.
  • The Department of Homeland Security classified the event SEAR‑1 with Secret Service coordination, enforcing a no‑bag policy and flag‑color attire, after police detained an armed man posing as law enforcement near the venue on Friday.
  • Erika Kirk addressed mourners after being named to lead Turning Point USA, with organizers requesting donations in lieu of flowers.
  • Suspect Tyler Robinson, 22, is indicted for murder with prosecutors seeking the death penalty, and authorities say he told relatives he was driven by hatred for Kirk.
