Erika Kirk Delivers Emotional Statement After Charlie Kirk’s Assassination

The nation continues to mourn the shocking assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, 31,

who was fatally shot during a speech at Utah Valley University on September 10. Known as the founder of Turning Point USA, Kirk was

a rising voice in conservative politics. Authorities arrested 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, who faces charges connected to the targeted attack.

On September 12, Kirk’s wife, Erika, broke her silence in a moving livestream from Turning Point USA’s Phoenix headquarters.

Standing beside her husband’s podcast chair, she thanked first responders, supporters, and political allies,

including Vice President JD Vance and former President Donald Trump. She described Kirk as a devoted husband,

father, and patriot, recalling his love for America, nature, baseball, and most of all, his family.

Through tears, Erika vowed to continue his mission. She promised that Kirk’s campus tour, podcast, and radio

show would go on, declaring his message would only grow stronger. Addressing those behind the attack,

she warned: “You have no idea the fire you have ignited within this wife.”

Her closing words were a personal vow: to raise their children in his legacy and ensure his love and mission endure.
