President Donald Trump and dozens of top administration officials and aides spent Sunday at Charlie Kirk’s stadium-sized memorial service in Arizona. Trump called Kirk “our greatest evangelist for American liberty” and a “martyr” for American freedom, while drawing at least one stark contrast between himself and the late conservative Christian activist. “He did not hate his opponents. He wanted the best for them. That’s where I disagreed with Charlie,” Trump said. “I hate my opponents, and I don’t want the best for them.” That portends turbulence ahead, as Trump returns to Washington eager to press the Justice Department to prosecute his political enemies, readies a major announcement on autism and gears up for a battery of meetings at the U.N. General Assembly. Playbook’s Jack Blanchard and Adam Wren unpack what to know as the week begins.
