After landing in Tel Aviv, Trump is expected to meet with families of hostages and then give an address at the Knesset, Israel\u2019s parliament, in Jerusalem.<br \/>\nTrump will then travel to Egypt to attend an international summit in the seaside city of Sharm el-Sheikh on Monday to finalize an agreement aimed at ending the war in Gaza. More than 20 world leaders, including Trump, are expected to attend, an Egyptian presidential spokesperson said, according to Reuters.<br \/>\nAfter a handful of hours in Israel and Egypt, Trump will board Air Force One and return to the White House in the early morning hours on Tuesday in order to honor the late Charlie Kirk with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation\u2019s highest civilian award.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It\u2019s a very quick trip, but I\u2019ll be making two major stops, and then I\u2019ll be on the plane trying to get back in time for Charlie,\u2019 Trump told reporters at the White House on Friday. \u2018They\u2019re going to have a great celebration at the White House in the East Room,\u2019 he added. The award ceremony coincides with what would have been Kirk\u2019s 32nd birthday on Oct. 14.<br \/>\nKirk, the charismatic founder of Turning Point USA (TPUSA), gained recognition for his signature political debates on college campuses. He was assassinated on Sept. 10, during an outdoor event at Utah Valley University. The gathering was the first stop on TPUSA\u2019s planned \u2018American Comeback Tour.\u2019<br \/>\nKirk\u2019s memorial service drew one of the largest public turnouts for a private citizen, with about 90,000 people in attendance at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona and nearby overflow venues.<br \/>\nTrump previously announced last month that he would award Kirk the award posthumously.<\/p>\n<p>This post appeared first on FOX NEWS<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/godzillanewz.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/donald-trump-air-force-one-800x450.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\">President Donald Trump will spend the first part of the week in the Middle East&#8230;<\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":32513,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[230,1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/investmentbankingrules.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32512"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/investmentbankingrules.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/investmentbankingrules.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/investmentbankingrules.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/investmentbankingrules.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=32512"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/investmentbankingrules.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32512\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/investmentbankingrules.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/32513"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/investmentbankingrules.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=32512"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/investmentbankingrules.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=32512"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/investmentbankingrules.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=32512"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
