At Charlie Kirk’s powerful tribute in Glendale, Arizona, President Donald Trump dropped a bombshell announcement: on Monday, he will host one of the most important press conferences of his presidency, focused entirely on autism. And according to Trump himself, “I think we found an answer.”
Standing before tens of thousands, Trump previewed what’s coming: “Tomorrow, we’re going to have one of the biggest announcements really, medically, I think, in the history of our country. We’re going to be doing it with Bobby [RFK Jr.], and Oz [Dr. Mehmet Oz], and all of the professionals. I think you’re going to find it to be amazing. I think we found an answer to autism.”
The press conference will take place at the White House alongside Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and CMS Administrator Mehmet Oz. Trump promised to address both prevention and treatment: “We’re going to be talking … about autism, how it happens, so we won’t let it happen anymore, and how to get at least somewhat better when you have it, so that parents can help their child, their beautiful child. That’s a big one.”
Trump emphasized this has been a top priority for his administration, pointing to the staggering rise in autism rates over recent decades. “I think it’s going to be one of the most important news conferences I’ll ever have. And I look so forward to it.”
Earlier this month, Trump defended Kennedy from establishment attacks, telling Breitbart News: “He’s a different kind of a guy. He’s got a lot of good ideas … and that’s why we have problems with autism and so many other things, because we’re coming up with the answers for autism. You watch.”
As Trump made clear, this isn’t just another press briefing—it’s a historic step. For parents across America, hope is on the horizon. And as the President said, it’s exactly the kind of announcement Charlie Kirk would have been excited to see.
