Erika Kirk Shares That She Forgives Charlie Kirk’s Assassin, Tyler Robinson
According to Newsweek, Erika spoke in front of thousands during her husband’s memorial service at the State Farm Arena in Glendale, Arizona, on Sunday, September 21. Furthermore, during her speech, Erika shared that her husband’s mission was to “save young men just like the one who took his life.” Nonetheless, she revealed that she has forgiven 22-year-old Tyler Robinson “because it was what Christ did, and it is what Charlie would do,” she explained.
“The answer to hate is not hate. The answer we know from the gospel is love and always love. Love for our enemies and love for those who persecute us,” she reportedly went on to say.
In addition, Erika shared that she and her husband shared the same “passion.”
“His passion was my passion, and now his mission is my mission. Everything that Turning Point USA built for Charlie’s mission and hard work, we will make ten times greater through the power of his memory,” she explained, amid announcing that she will be assuming her husband’s position as CEO of Turning Point USA, a right-wing advocacy group.

To note, Sunday, September 21, also marked the publishing of Erika Kirk’s exclusive interview with The New York Times. Furthermore, while speaking with the publication, Erika revealed that she was not by her husband’s side at the time of his fatal shooting because she was at a hospital with her mother. Furthermore, she explained that she learned of the shooting via a phone call and rushed to Charlie via plane, per Page Six. Ultimately, Charlie passed away before she could make it to him.
“I’m looking at the clouds and the mountains. It was such a gorgeous day, and I was thinking: This is exactly what he last saw,” she shared.
Per US Weekly, Erika shared that she would like the government to decide Robinson’s fate.
“I’ve had so many people ask, ‘Do you feel anger toward this man? Like, do you want to seek the death penalty?’ I’ll be honest. I told our lawyer, I want the government to decide this. I do not want this man’s blood on my ledger. Because when I get to heaven, and Jesus is like: ‘Uh, eye for an eye? Is that how we do it?’ And that keeps me from being in heaven, from being with Charlie?”
