“If you thought my husbands mission was powerful before, you have no idea”
“The cries of this widow will echo around the world like a battle cry. The movement MY husband built WILL NOT DlE.”
“The evil doers, responsible for my husband’s assassination, have no idea what they have done… you have no idea what you have just unleashed across this entire country—and this world.”
NY POST: Charlie Kirk’s heartbroken widow said her husband sacrificed his life for his country and family – and that the “evildoers” who publicly assassinated the conservative activist have only fanned the flames of his patriotic mission.
A teary-eyed Erika Frantzve Kirk, wife of the slain founder of Turning Point USA, addressed mourners for the first time Friday in a live-streamed speech from her husband’s Arizona podcast studio just two days after he was shot dead during an outdoor college campus event in Utah.
“My husband laid down his life for me, for our nation, for our children,” Erika said as she stood behind a podium bearing a sign of her late husband’s face with the text: “May Charlie be received into the merciful arms of Jesus, our loving Savior.”

Charlie Kirk’s heartbroken widow vowed to continue his “American Comeback” tour of college campuses this fall after the conservative influencer was assassinated at the very first stop on his tour this week.
In Erika Frantzve Kirk’s powerful, tear-jerking speech Friday night commemorating the memory of her trailblazing husband, she promised to live up to one of his favorite mottos — “never surrender.”
“Our campus tour this fall will continue. There will be even more tours in the years to come,” the mother of two pledged Friday. “The movement is not going anywhere, and it will only grow stronger when you join it.”
Erika urged Kirk’s young followers to join the conservative group founded by her slain husband, Turning Point USA.
“To all of the young people who felt inspired by my husband’s faith and hard work, all of you already know what Charlie would want you to do,” she said.
“You know. If you’re in high school or if you’re in college, go find your local Turning Point USA chapter. Join it. Stay involved. He wants you to make a difference, and you can,” the widow told admirants of her fallen husband.
ADVERTISEMENTErika also said the group’s yearly flagship conference will go on as planned.
“AmericaFest here in Phoenix this December will go on. It will be greater than ever,” the grieving widow said, inviting potential attendees to bring their families and adding that Kirk’s spirit will be there.
The Turning Point USA event is an annual four-day conference that draws thousands of conservatives and top political leaders, according to the event’s website.
Erika also stated that Kirk’s podcast and radio show will continue.
“In a world filled with chaos, doubt and uncertainty, my husband’s voice will remain and it will ring out louder and more clearly than ever, and his wisdom will endure,” she said during the cathartic and inspiring speech.
