Erika Kirk Unleashes On Conspiracy Theorists Spreading Baseless Claims About Her Husband’s Assassination

Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk on Wednesday raged at conspiracy theorists pushing baseless stories about her late husband’s assassination three months after he was gunned down at a campus event in Utah.

Some prominent media personalities on the right have spread various false stories alleging that Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk faked his death, that Turning Point was involved in the assassination and much more. Kirk said on Fox News’ “Outnumbered” that she and her family just want “one thing” that they can hold “sacred.”

Can I have one thing? Can I have one thing? Can my children have one thing?” Kirk said. “Everything was public. We will be building the most beautiful memorial for my husband at Turning Point USA, and it will be for the world to see, and it will be spectacular, and it will have a basically museum style for our Charlie, for my Charlie. But can I have one thing? Can my babies have one thing where we hold it sacred, where my husband is laid to rest, where I don’t have to be worried about some secular revolutionary coming and destroying my husband’s grave while my daughter is sitting there praying? One thing.”

“This is my husband. Yes, he was Charlie Kirk to the world and I know so many people loved my husband and I am grateful for that. But this is my husband and I want to be able to have one thing left that is sacred to our family, to my in-laws, to my babies and to my parents, one thing,” Kirk continued.

Kirk said that she will continue building her husband’s organization and keeping his legacy alive while critics call her names and make up stories.

Come after me. Call me names. I do not care. Call me what you want,” Kirk said. “Go down that rabbit hole, whatever, but when you go after my family, my Turning Point USA family, my Charlie Kirk show family, when you go after the people that I love and you are making hundreds and thousands of dollars every single episode going after the people that I love because somehow they are in on this. No. You know, I have to say it. I have never seen you like that. No. This is righteous angerbecause this is not okay. It is not healthy. This is a mind virus.”

“The Charlie Kirk Show” producer Blake Neff broke silence on podcaster Candace Owens’ accusations against Turning Point USA, which have involved French paratroopers, the Egyptian military and TPUSA leadership. He invited Owens to participate in a livestream where they planned on addressing her allegations, though Owens backed out of participating after initially agreeing to participate.

Without providing evidence, commentator Milo Yiannopoulos said on “Timcast” that Charlie was gay and planned to divorce his wife. Former Republican New York Rep. George Santos condemned this allegation. He also claimed that he knew for a fact that Charlie had not been buried yet and questioned if he had faked his own death.

Owens alleged that Charlie Kirk texted a Turning Point staffer and a donor that he was going to be killed the next day. Without evidence, she accused Turning Point leadership of betraying Charlie by having involvement in the assassination.
