Erika Kirk’s words to husband’s killer: ‘You have no idea what you just have unleashed’

>> GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS ERIKA KIRK. CHARLIE KIRK AS MY HUSBAND. I FIRST WANT TO THANK THE LOCAL, STATE, AND FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT WHO WORKED TIRELESSLY TO CAPTURE MY HUSBAND’S ASSASSIN SO HE CAN BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE. I WANT TO THANK THE FIRST RESPONDERS WHO STRUGGLED HEROICALLY. AEROBICALLY TO SAVE — AEROBICALLY TO SAVE CHARLES’ LIFE, AND THE POLICE WHO ACTED BRAVELY TO MAKE SURE THERE WERE NO OTHER VICTIMS ON THAT TERRIBLE AFTERNOON. I WANT TO THANK THE OFFICERS WHO HAVE PROTECTED OUR TURNING POINT USA FAMILY THESE PAST FEW DAYS. I WANT TO THANK THE TURNING POINT USA BOARD IT, THE CEO JUST AND STRIFE, AND MY HUSBAND CHIEF OF STAFF, THE AMAZING MIKEY McCOY, FOR ALL OF THEIR WORK AND THESE TERRIBLE DAYS TO BE THE STABILITY FOR OUR FAMILY AND FOR THE WIDER TURNING POINT USA FAMILY AS WELL. MY HEART IS WITH EVERY ONE OF MY HUSBAND’S EMPLOYEES WHO LOST A FRIEND AND MENTOR. I WANT TO THANK THE STAFFERS OF HIS AMAZING CHARLIE KIRK SHOW, WHO HELPED THEM BROADCAST FROM THE STUDIO, THIS CHAIR. EVERY DAY HE LOVED. HE LOVED WHAT HE DID. I WANT TO THANK THE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE SHOWN THEIR LOVE FOR CHARLIE HERE IN PHOENIX, ACROSS AMERICA, AND WORLDWIDE. I WANT TO THANK MY HUSBAND’S DEAR FRIEND VP VANCE, AND HIS PHENOMENAL WIFE USHA VANCE FOR THEIR LOVE AND SUPPORT. YOU GUYS HONORED MY HUSBAND SO WELL BRINGING HIM HOME. TREMENDOUS. I WANT TO THANK PRESIDENT TRUMP AND HIS INCREDIBLE FAMILY FOR THE SAME MR. PRESIDENT , MY HUSBAND LOVED YOU. HE DID. YOUR FRIENDSHIP WAS AMAZING. YOU SUPPORTED HIM SO WELL. TWO DAYS AGO MY HUSBAND, CHARLIE, WENT TO SEE THE FACE OF HIS SAVIOR AND HIS GOD. CHARLIE ALWAYS SAID THAT WHEN HE WAS GONE HE WANTED TO BE REMEMBERED FOR HIS COURAGE AND FOR HIS FAITH. AND ONE OF THE FINAL CONVERSATIONS THAT HE HAD ON THIS EARTH, MY HUSBAND WITNESSED FOR HIS LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST. NOW AND FOR ALL ETERNITY HE WILL STAND AT HIS SAVIOR’S SIDE, WEARING THE GLORIOUS CROWN OF THE MARTYR. CHARLIE LOVED, LOVED LIFE. HE LOVED HIS LIFE. HE LOVED AMERICA, HE LOVED NATURE, WHICH HELPED HIM ALWAYS BRING HIM CLOSER TO GOD, HE LOVED THE CHICAGO CUBS, AND TO MY GOODNESS THAT HE LOVED THE OREGON DUCKS. HE’D WANT ME TO SAY GO DUCKS. I HAVE TO SINCE THEY PLAY ON SATURDAY. GO DUCKS. BUT MOST OF ALL, CHARLIE LOVED HIS CHILDREN, AND HE LOVED ME WITH ALL OF HIS HEART. I KNEW THAT. EVERY DAY I KNEW THAT. HE MADE SURE I KNEW THAT EVERY DAY. EVERY DAY HE WOULD ASK ME HOW CAN I SERVE YOU BETTER. HOW CAN I BE A BETTER HUSBAND? HOW CAN I BE A BETTER FATHER. EVERY DAY, EVERY DAY, SUCH A GOOD MAN. HE STILL IS A GOOD MAN. HE WAS THE PERFECT FATHER. HE WAS THE PERFECT HUSBAND. CHARLIE ALWAYS BELIEVED THAT GOD’S DESIGN FORM A RICH AND FAMILY WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND IT IS. IT IS. AND IT WAS THE GREATEST JOY OF HIS LIFE. AND OVER AND OVER HE WOULD TELL ALL THESE YOUNG PEOPLE TO COME AND FIND THEIR FUTURE SPOUSE. BECOME WIVES AND HUSBANDS AND PARENTS. AND THE REASON WHY IS BECAUSE HE WANTED YOU ALL TO EXPERIENCE WHAT HE HAD, AND STILL HAS. HE WANTED EVERYONE TO BRING HEAVEN INTO THIS EARTH THROUGH LOVE AND JOY THAT COMES FROM RAISING A FAMILY. IT IS BEAUTIFUL. CHARLIE ALWAYS SAID THAT IF HE EVER RAN FOR OFFICE, I KNOW A LOT OF YOU ASKED IF HE EVER WAS GOING, BUT PRIVATELY HE TOLD ME, IF HE EVER DID RAN FOR OFFICE, IS TOP PRIORITY WOULD BE TO REVIVE THE AMERICAN FAMILY. THAT WAS HIS PRIORITY. ONE OF CHARLIE’S FAVORITE BIBLE VERSES WAS EPHESIANS FIVE VERSE 25. HUSBANDS, LOVE YOUR WIVES, AS CHRIST LOVED THE CHURCH. GAVE HIMSELF UP FOR HER. MY HUSBAND LAID DOWN HIS LIFE FOR ME, FOR OUR NATION, FOR OUR CHILDREN, HE SHOWED THE ULTIMATE AND TRUE COVENANTAL LOVE. I WILL NEVER EVER HAVE THE WORDS TO DESCRIBE THE LOSS THAT I FEEL IN MY HEART. I HONESTLY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT ANY OF THIS MEANS, I KNOW THAT GOD DOES, BUT I DON’T. BUT CHARLIE, I KNOW YOU DO TO. SO DOES OUR LORD. AND OUR WORLD IS FILLED WITH EVIL BUT OUR GOD, YOU GUYS, OUR GOD IS SO GOOD. SO INCREDIBLY GOOD. AND WE KNOW THAT FOR THOSE WHO LOVE GOD ALL THINGS WORK TOGETHER FOR GOOD. FOR THOSE WHO ARE CALLED ACCORDING TO HIS PURPOSE. ALREADY I HAVE SEEN THE WORLDWIDE OUTPOURING OF LOVE FOR MY HUSBAND. I’VE HEARD THE TESTIMONIES FROM PEOPLE MY HUSBAND INSPIRED TO GET MARRIED, TO START FAMILIES, TO SEEK OUT A RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. THAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT. THE EVILDOERS RESPONSIBLE FOR MY HUSBAND’S ASSASSINATION HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THEY HAVE DONE. THEY KILLED CHARLIE BECAUSE HE PREACHED A MESSAGE OF PATRIOTISM, FAITH, AND OF GOD’S MERCIFUL LOVE. BUT THEY SHOULD ALL KNOW THIS, IF YOU THOUGHT THAT MY HUSBAND’S MISSION WAS POWERFUL BEFORE, YOU HAVE NO IDEA. YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU JUST HAVE FROM THE EAST ACROSS THIS ENTIRE COUNTRY AND THIS WORLD. YOU HAVE NO IDEA. YOU HAVE NO IDEA THE FIRE THAT YOU HAVE IGNITED WITHIN THIS WIFE, THE CRIES OF THIS WINDOW WILL ECHO AROUND THE WORLD LIKE A BATTLE CRY. TO EVERYBODY LISTENING TO THE RIGHT ACROSS AMERICA THE MOVEMENT MY HUSBAND BUILT WILL NOT DIE. IT WON’T. I REFUSE TO LET THAT HAPPEN. IT WILL NOT DIE. ALL OF US WILL REFUSE TO LET THAT HAPPEN. NO ONE WILL EVER FORGET MY HUSBAND’S NAME AND I WILL MAKE SURE OF IT. IT WILL BECOME STRONGER, FOLDER, LOUDER, AND GREATER THAN EVER. MY HUSBAND’S MISSION WILL NOT END, NOT EVEN FOR A MOMENT. AND A ONE OF CHARLIE’S GREATEST TALENTS WAS HIS ABILITY, THIS PHENOMENAL ABILITY TO CHOOSE GREAT PEOPLE TO FOLLOW HIM. HE COULD ALWAYS FIND THE ONES WHO COULD HANDLE ANY SETBACK. IT IS ALMOST LIKE HE KNEW. HE JUST HE COULD SEE IT IN YOU EVEN WHEN YOU COULD NOT SEE IT IN YOURSELF HE JUST KNEW, HE KNEW YOU COULD HANDLE. YOU THOUGHT YOU ONLY HAD FIVE% LEFT AND HE MET YOU AT 15. HE KNEW YOU WERE READY TO GO THAT EXTRA MILE EVEN WHEN YOU DID NOT. HE ALWAYS CHALLENGED PEOPLE AROUND HIM TO WORK HARDER AND BE BETTER. HE NEVER GAVE UP. I LOVE KNOWING THAT ONE OF HIS MOTTOES WAS NEVER SURRENDER. SO I WANT TO TELL YOU THAT WE WILL NEVER SURRENDER. WE NEVER WELL. EVER. EVER. OUR CAMPUS TOUR THIS FALL WILL CONTINUE. THERE WILL BE EVEN MORE TOURS IN THE YEARS TO COME. AMERICA FEST HERE IN PHOENIX THIS DECEMBER WILL GO ON. IT WILL BE GREATER THAN EVER. THE RADIO AND PODCAST SHOW THAT HE WAS SO PROUD OF WILL GO ON. AND IN A WORLD FILLED WITH CHAOS, NOTE, AND UNCERTAINTY MY HUSBAND’S VOICE WILL REMAIN. IT WILL WRING OUT LOUDER AND MORE CLEARLY THAN EVER. AND HIS WISDOM WILL INJURE. MY FAVORITE MY FAVORITE AS WELL, LET MY HUSBAND’S FAVORITE WORD IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE WAS EARNED — EARN. YOU WOULD CALL ON YOU ALL TO BE PEOPLE OF ACTION WHO EARNED THE FUTURE ON THE RECORD DESERVES. SO TO ALL OF THE PEOPLE WHO FELT INSPIRED BY MY HUSBAND’S FAITH AND HARD WORK, ALL OF YOU ALREADY KNOW WHAT CHARLIE WOULD WANT YOU TO DO. YOU KNOW. YOU KNOW. IF YOU WERE IN HIGH SCHOOL OR IF YOU ARE IN COLLEGE GO FIND YOUR LOCAL TURNING POINT USA CHAPTER. JOIN IT, STAY INVOLVED, HE WANTS YOU TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE. AND YOU CAN. YOU CAN.

MY HUSBAND NEEDS TO STAY IN THIS ROOM EVERY SINGLE DAY IF YOU WANT TO GET INVOLVE THE BEST WAY YOU CAN DO THAT IS GO TO TPUSA.COM. THAT IS WHAT HE WOULD SAY FROM THIS CHAIR EVERY DAY.

A BIBLE BELIEVING CHURCH. OUR BATTLE IS NOT SIMPLY A POLITICAL ONE, ABOVE ALL IT IS SPIRITUAL. IT IS SPIRITUAL. SPIRITUAL WARFARE IS PALPABLE. CHARLIE LOVE TO SAY FEAR WITH ALL OF HIS HEART, AND SHE WANTED EVERYONE OF YOU TO KNOW HIM AS WELL — LOVED HIS SAVIOR WITH ALL OF HIS HEART, AND HE WANTED EVERYONE OF YOU TO KNOW HIM AS WELL.
