Conservative podcaster Charlie Kirk’s wife, Erika Kirk, has been appointed by President Donald Trump as a board member of the U.S. Air Force Academy. Prior to his death, her husband was also appointed by Trump to the same position.
According to the U.S. Air Force Academy’s website, the Board “inquires into the morale, discipline, curriculum, instruction, physical equipment, fiscal affairs, academic methods, and other matters” relating to the academy. The appointed members will essentially have control over institutional policies and how the academy is run.
