When Erika spoke it was clear she was carried by the Holy Spirit.

Listening to her was a true testament to the power of faith and the light of Jesus Christ.

It was the most touching and humbling thing I have heard in a very long time.

Her voice carried a weight beyond this world, as if God’s truth was flowing through her. The strength, wisdom, and courage she showed could only come from an unshakable faith in the Lord.

Her words reminded us of the promise in 2 Corinthians 5:8 that to be away from the body is to be at home with the Lord, and of Romans 8:38–39 which tells us that nothing can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus.

Her testimony also reflected Philippians 4:13, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Through her faith we are reminded that even in grief, God is present, His promises are true, and His kingdom cannot be shaken.

And it is there, in that kingdom, where Charlie now rests in eternal glory.

I hope this is a call to all those who do not yet know the character of Christ to seek Him, to know Him, and to understand the unshakable hope and peace that only He gives.

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. - John 14:27

Erika Kirk: "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.

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 unleashed across this entire country and this world. You have no idea."

It is NOT a "both sides" issue.

No assassination attempts on Biden.
No assassination attempts on Kamala.
No assassination attempts on AOC.
No assassination attempts on any other prominent voice on the political left.

No violence from pro-Israeli crowds.
No arrests on the pro-Israeli side.
No calls for death or murder of those who oppose the pro-Israeli side.

Those who oppose gender ideology do not call for the death of those who disagree with them.

Those who oppose movements like BLM did not call for the death of those who took part in the BLM riots.

Social media is not flooded with videos from those on the right celebrating the deaths of those on the left or wishing harm upon them.

It is not a "both sides" issue.

A while ago, probably in 2017, I appeared on Tucker Carlson's Fox show to talk about God knows what. Afterwards a name I barely knew sent me a DM on twitter and told me I did a great job. It was Charlie Kirk, and that moment of kindness began a friendship that lasted until today.

Charlie was fascinated by ideas and always willing to learn and change his mind. Like me, he was skeptical of Donald Trump in 2016. Like me, he came to see President Trump as the only figure capable of moving American politics away from the globalism that had dominated for our entire lives. When others were right, he learned from them. When he was right--as he usually was--he was generous. With Charlie, the attitude was never, "I told you so." But: "welcome."

Charlie was one of the first people I called when I thought about running for senate in early 2021. I was interested but skeptical there was a pathway. We talked through everything, from the strategy to the fundraising to the grassroots of the movement he knew so well. He introduced me to some of the people who would run my campaign and also to Donald Trump Jr. "Like his dad, he's misunderstood. He's extremely smart, and very much on our wavelength." Don took a call from me because Charlie asked him too.

Long before I ever committed (even in my mind) to running, Charlie had me speak to his donors at a TPUSA event. He walked me around the room and introduced me. He gave me honest feedback on my remarks. He had no reason to do this, no expectation that I'd go anywhere. I was polling, at that point, well below 5 percent. He did it because we were friends, and because he was a good man.

When I became the VP nominee--something Charlie advocated for both in public and private--Charlie was there for me. I was so glad to be part of the president's team, but candidly surprised by the effect it had on our family. Our kids, especially our oldest, struggled with the attention and the constant presence of the protective detail. I felt this acute sense of guilt, that I had conscripted my kids into this life without getting their permission. And Charlie was constantly calling and texting, checking on our family and offering guidance and prayers. Some of our most successful events were organized not by the campaign, but by TPUSA. He wasn't just a thinker, he was a doer, turning big ideas into bigger events with thousands of activists. And after every event, he would give me a big hug, tell me he was praying for me, and ask me what he could do. "You focus on Wisconsin," he'd tell me. "Arizona is in the bag." And it was.

Charlie genuinely believed in and loved Jesus Christ. He had a profound faith. We used to argue about Catholicism and Protestantism and who was right about minor doctrinal questions. Because he loved God, he wanted to understand him.

Someone else pointed out that Charlie died doing what he loved: discussing ideas. He would go into these hostile crowds and answer their questions. If it was a friendly crowd, and a progressive asked a question to jeers from the audience, he'd encourage his fans to calm down and let everyone speak. He exemplified a foundational virtue of our Republic: the willingness to speak openly and debate ideas.

Charlie had an uncanny ability to know when to push the envelope and when to be more conventional. I've seen people attack him for years for being wrong on this or that issue publicly, never realizing that privately he was working to broaden the scope of acceptable debate.

He was a great family man. I was talking to President Trump in the Oval Office today, and he said, "I know he was a very good friend of yours." I nodded silently, and President Trump observed that Charlie really loved his family. The president was right. Charlie was so proud of Erika and the two kids. He was so happy to be a father. And he felt such gratitude for having found a woman of God with whom he could build a family.

Charlie Kirk was a true friend. The kind of guy you could say something to and know it would always stay with him. I am on more than a few group chats with Charlie and people he introduced me to over the years. We celebrate weddings and babies, bust each other's chops, and mourn the loss of loved ones. We talk about politics and policy and sports and life. These group chats include people at the very highest level of our government. They trusted him, loved him, and knew he'd always have their backs. And because he was a true friend ,you could instinctively trust the people Charlie introduced you to. So much of the success we've had in this administration traces directly to Charlie's ability to organize and convene. He didn't just help us win in 2024, he helped us staff the entire government.

I was in a meeting in the West Wing when those group chats started lighting up with people telling Charlie they were praying for him. And that's how I learned the news that my friend had been shot. I prayed a lot over the next hour, as first good news and then bad trickled in.

God didn't answer those prayers, and that's OK. He had other plans. And now that Charlie is in heaven, I'll ask him to talk to big man directly on behalf of his family, his friends, and the country he loved so dearly.

You ran a good race, my friend.

We've got it from here.

I doubt Charlie Kirk and I would agree on anything but I do not give a single fuck. A human was just publicly executed at a university for having views other people did not agree with.

The fact that there are so-called anti-gun and anti-violence people on this platform celebrating the violent murder of someone is enough internet for me.

If you are truly anti-gun and anti-violence - and you are smugly or gleefully enjoying this, you’re absolutely sickening. The tweets I am seeing from professionals and activists revelling in this murder are unforgivable.

[First Lady Melania Trump @FLOTUS]

Charlie’s children will be raised with stories instead of memories, photographs instead of laughter, and silence where their father’s voice should have echoed.

Charlie Kirk’s life should serve as a symbolic reminder that compassionate awareness elevates family, love, and country.

[Andy Milonakis @andymilonakis]

Celebrating a man’s death because you didn’t like his views is some real mentally insane shit

[Kayce Smith @KayceSmith]

If you’re even remotely celebrating what happened to Charlie Kirk because you disagree with his politics, you need to reevaluate your values. It’s absolutely horrific.

[Kayce Smith @KayceSmith]

Somebody took this baby’s father away from her today because they disagreed with his politics. Absolutely fucking evil.

BREAKING: President Trump just dismantled the fake media narrative on the funding freeze.

TRUMP: I am restating right now - the media has purposefully created confusion... Social Security, Medicaid, Medicare have not been impacted by any action we have taken in any way, shape or form. We have stopped $50M that would've bought condoms for Hamas. We stopped an attempt to pay for illegal alien resettlement. We canceled $181M in DEI training contracts. $45M for diversity scholarships in Burma.
