Trump Appoints Charlie Kirk’s Wife to Air Force Academy Board
President Trump has appointed Erika Kirk, widow of the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk, to the U.S. Air Force Academy Board of Visitors. Kirk’s appointment is intended to continue her husband’s legacy on the board, where he had previously raised questions about diversity initiatives and pushed for the chapel’s renovation. The board is responsible for providing recommendations to the Secretary of Defense on various aspects of the academy, including morale, curriculum, and finances. Kirk will serve a term of at least three years.
