Quick hits to launch your week with the facts shaping America and the world. Charlie Kirk Memorial in Arizona: Erika Kirk vowed, "No one will ever forget my husband's name — and I will make sure of it." She forgave the assassin, telling the crowd, "That man… I forgive him." Trump honored Kirk as a man of grace but joked, "Charlie did not hate his opponents. That's where I disagreed with Charlie. I hate my opponents, and I don't want the best for them." Trump Hits Harvard and Berkeley: The White House placed Harvard on a federal watchlist restricting access to $550 million in funds, citing civil rights violations and leftist violence. UC Berkeley handed over names of 160 students and staff after pressure to expose antisemitic and radical faculty. Bryan says this is Trump waging the fight "where it belongs — in their pocketbooks." Al Qaeda Plot Inside the U.S.: The National Counterterrorism Center warns AQ operatives from Yemen are in multiple American cities. Rumors suggest they may pose as police or medics during future attacks. Bryan urges vigilance: "While we may be done with Radical Islam — it is not done with us." Trump Demands Afghanistan Return Bagram Air Base: The president warned the Taliban, "Bad things are going to happen" if the U.S. is not given control of the base, citing the need to monitor China's nearby nuclear sites. Kabul insists "not one inch" will be ceded. TikTok's U.S. Ownership Deal: Fox's Murdoch, Oracle's Larry Ellison, and Dell's Michael Dell will sit on TikTok's new U.S. board, with one seat reserved for a Chinese official. Trump insists user data will be controlled on U.S. soil, but skeptics warn Xi will not give up his propaganda tool without concessions. Argentina's Milei Meets Trump: With inflation down from 250 percent to 34 percent, Milei still faces socialist backlash at home. Trump may use the U.S. Exchange Stabilization Fund to provide a financial lifeline. Bryan warns, "Never underestimate a death cult. Marxists don't get tired of fighting." Looking Ahead This Week: Trump promises revelations about autism and Tylenol, a bailout for struggling farmers and truckers, and big updates on immigration, Biden's mental decline, and global conflicts from Gaza to the Pacific.
