Krika Kirk is continuing on her husband Charlie Kirk’s work after the horrifying event when he was killed during an event in Utah. The mother of two has recently taken over as CEO of her husband’s non-profit organization, and on Friday, she appeared on The Charlie Kirk Show. There, Erika made an announcement about what is to come.
Even though Charlie Kirk is no longer alive, his show, The Charlie Kirk Show, is continuing. Just days after his tragic death, his wife, Erika Kirk, appeared on the show and held a strong, emotional speech.
On Friday, she returned to the show, sharing news about the future.
“The Charlie Kirk Show is not going anywhere,” Erika Kirk said. “My husband’s voice will live on. The show will go on. We will have rotating hosts, rotating casts, rotating people coming on. It is going to be continually the north star of the conservative movement, of the voice of the youth, of the voice of the base, and that will not end.”
While the pain of losing her husband and the father of their two children most definitely still is present, Erika Kirk laughed and smiled throughout the episode. Moreover, she pledged to continue Charlie’s tour through college campuses nationwide, named the “American Comeback Tour.”

Further, Kirk stated that Turning Point USA is moving “full steam ahead.”
“We’ll never be silenced,” Kirk continued. “That’s why continuing his platform in a beautiful, honorable way will reinforce that he will never be silenced. My husband’s voice will go on.”
Erika recently took over as CEO of Turning Point USA, a non-profit organization founded by Kirk. It claims to be the “largest Conservative student movement” in the US with groups at more than 3,000 universities and high schools.
The mother of two gave an emotional speech at her late husband’s memorial service in Glendale, Arizona, in front of tens of thousands of people, in which she recalled seeing Charlie Kirk after his passing at the hospital. Moreover, she decided to forgive the person who killed him.
“My husband, he wanted to save young men, just like the one who took his life. That man, that young man, I forgive him. I forgive him because it was what Christ did and it is what Charlie would do,” Erika Kirk said.
“The answer to hate is not hate,” she added. “The answer we know from the gospel is love and always love, love for our enemies and love for those who persecute us.”
