She opened herself to scrutiny when she went public after Charlie's murder. Regardless of your belief of right or wrong, she opened that door herself. Had she stayed private, I'd imagine most of this would be a nothingburger.


Turning Point is a political activist group that survives on fundraising. Probably $70-100M/year. Turning Point was Charlie Kirk and Charlie Kirk was Turning Point.

In the short term, there’s almost no one else that the organization could’ve turned to that was connected enough to Charlie to continue the fundraising. There’s no way they could’ve foreseen dumb figs making up stories about her out of whole cloth. (Yes, I’m looking directly at you.)

Turning Point made a very rational decision to keep a Kirk as the public face of the organization. The right wing Jootards have, incredibly enough, become enraged by this. And so, Turning Point will have to probably pivot to other leadership and they’ll likely be effectively dead in 3-5 years. Congratulations, ****. You completed what Twiggy and Twink started when Tylertwink shot Charlie.

She just didn’t want to headline an empty event

She seems awful. I think Candace Owens is nuts, but she’s probably somewhat right about Erika Kirk

Not safe enough for Erika Kirk

Safe enough for the VP of the United States

Venue was safe.

But you have to get to and from the venue safely.
That was the red flag for the Kirk security team.

Evidently, travel arrangement plans were leaked. When people look at Erika similar to Minnesotans looking at ICE officers (publicizing movements for sake of giving someone a window of opportunity), the safest thing to do is skip the event.

We already know they suck at their job, so I guess an abundance of caution is necessary

I typically don't get involved in online pissing matches, but for fricks' sake, the excuses for the poor succession planning by a nearly 100 mil per year company hit different for some reason. Dude I'm a fricking middle manager making 150k per year, and there is succession plans for me. There is no way you would ever convince me, that TPUSA, in your terms I bolded, did not have anyone else who could have stepped in for Charlie. Honestly, in hindsight, their best move would have been to take a step back for a minute and reassess. I will forever argue that putting Erika as the face of the company was a divisive mistake.

They should have known conspiracies were going to fly, they do with everything today, and putting her there as the face and the show that has been presented since hasn't set right with alot of people, "right wing Jootards", not withstanding. And if they couldn't (second bolded line here), then they clearly have issues understanding the current mindset of western civilizations where so much distrust has been earned since 9/11.

So, if you had a crystal ball in June of 2025 and you saw Charlie assassinated, you would’ve predicted that people would’ve blamed his wife for shooting him?

Come the frick on.

You’d think someone at TPUSA would have noted that Erika‘s past will come up and it won’t look great

There’s really nothing in her past. You can prove this by posting another video of her lying about how much time she didn’t date between her last relationship and Charlie.

Charlie named her as a replacement i believe in his will.

All of this hate for Erika is repeated by Candace and I guess some people believe she is bad.

No one can replace Charlie. Tucker and gang aren't genuine.

The key word is Charlie had authenticity and Candace is a jealous crazy bitch.

I'll disagree with nothing said here. Charlie had a level of authenticity that has never been met before in the public spectrum, in my opinion. That's what led to the explosion of the TPUSA movement.

Agreed. Lying about not dating prior to dating Charlie makes her look like a Joo/CIA plant.

why do you think you know what I'm thinking?

I don't think there's any conspiracy regarding Erika Kirk. I just think she's a washed up attention whore who is making the most of her moment.

She was kicked out of Romania.

Her association with a Romanian charity and an accusation of sex trafficking.

She was part of a plot to kill her husband.

Her travel overlapped some “Egyptian planes” some 73 times and that’s evidence of a military element to the plot to kill her husband.

She’s involved in affair with JD Vance.
