The conservative world was plunged into mourning as news broke of the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA.

The 31-year-old father of two was killed during an outdoor event at Utah Valley University on Wednesday, leaving millions of his followers and admirers in shock.

According to RedState, in a poignant tribute to the conservative icon, his body was flown from Utah to his native Arizona on Air Force Two. The flight was accompanied by Vice President JD Vance, his wife, Second Lady Usha Vance, Kirk's wife Erika, and other close family members and friends.

Kirk, a stalwart of conservative values and a respected figure in the movement, was known for his unwavering commitment to limited government, individual freedom, and free-market economics. His untimely death has left a void in the conservative landscape, and his loss is deeply felt by those who shared his vision for America.

In a touching display of solidarity, Vice President Vance, a close friend of Kirk's, was seen assisting in the transportation of the casket to the plane. Upon landing in Phoenix, the Second Lady was seen offering comfort to the grieving Mrs. Kirk, holding her hand as they disembarked from the plane.

Adding to the emotional journey, a heartfelt message was transmitted over the Sky Harbor control tower frequency, "Welcome home, Charlie. You didnt deserve it. May God bless you and your family." The identity of the person who delivered this poignant message remains unknown.

President Trump, who announced Kirk's death, attended 9/11 remembrance events while the Vances traveled to Utah to be with the Kirk family. The former President has confirmed his attendance at Kirk's funeral, further highlighting the impact Kirk had on the conservative movement.

Meanwhile, the hunt for Kirk's killer continues. The FBI has released new video footage of the suspect fleeing the scene and leaping off a rooftop. The authorities have also shared additional images of the person of interest in the fatal shooting.

The FBI is urging the public to come forward with any information, photos, or videos that could aid in their investigation.

A reward of up to $100,000 is being offered for information leading to the identification and arrest of the individual(s) responsible for this heinous act. The tragic loss of Charlie Kirk, a beacon of conservative values, has left a nation in mourning and a community determined to bring his killer to justice.

As the investigation continues, the conservative world pays tribute to a man who dedicated his life to championing traditional values and individual freedom. His legacy will continue to inspire those who share his vision for a free and prosperous America.
