An emotional Erika Kirk said during a CBS town hall event that those justifying her husband’s assassination need saving from God.
“You&#8217;re sick. He&#8217;s a human being. You think he deserved that? Tell that to my three-year-old daughter,” Erika told CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss.
Weiss asked Erika, a mother of two young children, what she has to say about people justifying her late husband Charlie Kirk’s murder.
Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA and a conservative powerhouse, was assassinated on a college campus in September while engaging in political debate with people he disagreed with — a common practice for the 31-year-old. Media figures and others on the Left have callously reasoned that Kirk had it coming because he believed and said things they disagreed with.
“You wanna watch, in high res, the video of my husband being murdered and laugh? And say he deserves it? There’s something very sick in your soul and I pray that God saves you,&#8221; the young widow told Weiss. &#8220;I pray.”
“The internet in this world has dehumanized us,” Erika added.

‘Tell That To My 3-Year-Old’: A Fiery Erika Kirk Responds To Justification Of Charlie’s Murder

CONTINUE READING

During a CBS town hall event, Erika Kirk jumped at the chance to dispel conspiracies surrounding her late husband&#8217;s murder, especially claims about Egyptian planes tracking her.
Erika, widow of assassinated conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, has personally been the subject a number of unproven theories since the murder of her husband, including that she was being tracked by Egyptian planes, that she&#8217;s an agent of Israeli intelligence agency Mossad, that the rings on her hands signify some secret plot, and many others, CBS editor-in-chief Bari Weiss said during the event.
“Egyptian planes,” Erika quickly underscored, with a smile on her face. “You wanna talk about the Egyptian planes? Okay, I was pregnant for 90% of those trips. Mind you, I&#8217;ve never been to all those places they said I&#8217;ve traveled … I mean, I&#8217;ve been, but not within those dates —”
Weiss interrupted to ask if Erika needed to even address the conspiracy.
“I do on that one, only because — from a humor standpoint,” Erika said. “I intentionally, when I was pregnant, hid. Not because I was embarrassed … yes, we did keep it very private, but it&#8217;s because it was a moment [where] I was growing a human inside of me, my baby. The world that Charlie and I live in is very toxic at times, and when you are growing a beautiful child in you &#8212; I don&#8217;t wanna be around it.”
“I wanna enjoy eating my In-N-Out burger and my hot fudge sundae,” Kirk said. “That’s what I wanna do. I&#8217;m pregnant, and I have nine months to own it. You really think I&#8217;m gonna be on an Egyptian plane while I&#8217;m wanting to be with my In-N-Out Burger and my chocolate milkshake? No, I’m not.”
“So if you want to go through my flight log, go right ahead, it&#8217;s very boring,” she continued. “You say I was here on this date — I have a photo on my phone to prove that I actually was in the hospital because I was having contractions. So, game on.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Conspiracy theorists have said Kirk&#8217;s alleged murderer was actually a MAGA Republican. That Erika Kirk is a Mossad agent. That even the rings on her fingers signify a secret plot. What does Erika make of these wild claims?

Erika also made clear that she believes Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old who has been charged in Charlie&#8217;s assassination, is the man who killed her husband.
&#8220;Everyone always has to think there&#8217;s more to the story,&#8221; Erika said, explaining why some people might want to believe conspiracies exonerating Robinson. &#8220;Well, sometimes there&#8217;s not. I&#8217;ve seen the autopsy report. I&#8217;ve seen our case pulled together.&#8221;
&#8220;This is the first time that we have seen evil on display where we have social media at our fingertips,&#8221; Erika added. &#8220;Something so evil that happened, people are wanting answers immediately. They are wanting to figure out how to wrap their mind around this.&#8221;

Erika Kirk Jumps At Chance To Respond To ‘Egyptian Plane’ Conspiracy

A shooting at Brown University has left two people dead, and eight injured.
On Saturday afternoon, officials at the school alerted students that there was an active shooter near the Barus and Holley engineering building, <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/us/brown-university-reports-active-shooter-campus">according</a> to Fox News. A text alert instructed students to &#8220;lock doors, silence phones and stay hidden until further notice.&#8221;
Providence Mayor Brett Smiley provided information about the casualties during a Saturday evening press conference.
&#8220;I can confirm that there are two individuals who have died this afternoon, and there are another eight in critical status, though stable &#8230; those are the only injuries or casualties that we know at this time,&#8221; Smiley stated.

Shooting At Brown University Leaves At Least 2 Dead, 8 Injured

A Stanford Medicine research team has confirmed that mRNA-based COVID vaccines can cause inflammation of the heart muscle, known as myocarditis, which can be fatal.
The study, recently <a href="https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2025/12/myocarditis-vaccine-covid.html">published</a> in the journal &#8220;Science Translational Medicine,&#8221; concludes that these mRNA vaccines can trigger certain immune cells to produce inflammatory proteins, specifically CXCL10 and IFN-gamma, which can cause heart issues.
“It’s not a heart attack in the traditional sense,” Dr. Joseph Wu, a senior author of the study and the director of the Stanford Cardiovascular Institute, explained. “There’s no blockage of blood vessels as found in most common heart attacks. When symptoms are mild and the inflammation hasn’t caused structural damage to the heart, we just observe these patients to make sure they recover.”
Some patients, though, can suffer severe complications, including death, Wu said.
The researcher confirmed that COVID itself &#8220;can cause myocarditis,&#8221; and &#8220;to a lesser extent, so can the mRNA vaccines.&#8221;
For reasons still unknown, the vaccines are tied to a heightened risk in males under the age of 30, particularly those who receive multiple doses, the study found.
&#8220;Vaccine-associated myocarditis occurs in about one in every 140,000 vaccines after a first dose and rises to one in 32,000 after a second dose,&#8221; Stanford Medicine News Center <a href="https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2025/12/myocarditis-vaccine-covid.html">said</a>. &#8220;For reasons that aren’t clear, incidence peaks among male vaccines age 30 or below, at one in 16,750 vaccines.&#8221;
Recently, U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) vaccine chief Dr. Vinay Prasad proposed in an internal memo an overhaul to how vaccines are evaluated and approved, basically initiating tougher standards.
<a class="c-link c-link--focus-visible c-link--underline" href="https://get.dailywire.com/subscribe/plus/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=christmas&amp;utm_content=christmassale25" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://get.dailywire.com/subscribe/plus/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=christmas&amp;utm_content=christmassale25" data-sk="tooltip_parent">Christmas Sale – Get 40% off New DailyWire+ Annual Memberships</a>
This would reportedly include full randomized clinical trials even for updated or routine vaccines, like the flu shot. The changes would allow for an evaluation of real-world protection, not just antibody levels, as well as rates of side effects, and more information on risk-benefit analysis. 
Notably, the memo cited at least 10 children who died “after and because of” receiving COVID vaccines as the apparent driving force behind the tougher vaccine standards.
The medical establishment quickly revolted over the proposed standards. For example, twelve former FDA officials denounced the memo in an editorial, claiming it casts doubt on vaccine safety. They also said the new standards “reject long-standing science” and will slow innovation. 
In response to the backlash from the establishment, Health and Human Services (HHS) press secretary Emily Hilliard told The Daily Wire that the American people “deserve evidence-based science,” and said Dr. Prasad’s email “lays out a philosophical framework that points us toward that higher standard.”
Hilliard also said HHS will “soon release documents laying out that framework” as well as data confirming how the COVID-19 vaccine resulted in children’s deaths that &#8220;previous leadership failed to properly investigate.”
The FDA is also currently <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/12/09/vaccine-covid-coronavirus-safety-fda/">investigating</a> adult deaths connected to the COVID vaccines.

A Smirking Tyler Robinson Talked About Erika Kirk In Court, Lip Reader Says

The U.S. Senate will vote on two different healthcare bills on Thursday &#8212; one Democrat-backed bill and one supported by Republicans.
The bill from Democrats seeks to extend COVID-era Obamacare subsidies for another three years, which will cost taxpayers tens of billions of dollars. Notably, the subsidies were set to expire this month, a deadline set by Democrats.
The other bill, backed by Republicans, lets the Obamacare subsidies expire. Instead, it directly gives some Americans about $1,000-1,500 into health savings accounts.
Notably, neither bill is expected to pass the Senate.
<h3>Extended Obamacare Tax Credits</h3>
Democrats say the Obamacare subsidies, which are technically tax credits, need to be extended again. They started back in 2021 and were only supposed to be in place for two years, but Democrats extended them until the end of this year.
The extension, called the “Lower Health Care Costs Act,” is expected to cost taxpayers $83 billion, while wait times and healthcare costs continue to skyrocket for most Americans.
Democrats, who are reportedly trying to keep healthcare a main issue for the coming midterm elections, say tens of millions of Americans will see their healthcare plans double if the subsidies are not extended once again.
Republicans, however, say that&#8217;s not true.
“Twenty-two million of the 24 million people will still get their subsidies, the original Obamacare subsidies, which subsidize the insurance at 91% of the premiums,” Senator Ron Johnson (R-WI) <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/obamacare-is-a-disaster-could-trumps-plan-fix-it?author=Amanda+Prestigiacomo&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=26&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Obamacare+Is+A+Disaster.+Could+Trump%E2%80%99s+Plan+Fix+It%3F">told</a> The Daily Wire last month. “So their premiums won’t double.”
“Now, you can argue that people that went from paying a negligible amount to zero premiums, they’re going to have to pay another negligible amount,” Johnson said. “But again, going from zero to a negligible amount is an infinite increase. You can’t put that as ‘doubling premiums.&#8217;”
“The people we’re talking about, the 1.6 million people whose subsidies completely go away — I’m willing to work with Democrats on that,” the senator added. “But again, it’s simply false to say that most people are gonna see their premiums double and triple. Now, the gross premium has more than doubled and tripled since Obamacare, but that’s because of Obamacare.”
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
To be clear, the Obamacare subsidies will continue. What’s at issue are the temporary, COVID-era enhanced subsidies that Democrats scheduled to expire at the end of this year.

The GOP also argues that Obamacare, and these subsidies specifically, are creating massive fraud &#8212; another burden on the American taxpayer.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<h3>&#8220;Health Care Freedom for Patients Act of 2025&#8221;</h3>
The GOP-backed bill, called the Health Care Freedom for Patients Act of 2025, lets the Obamacare subsidies expire on the timeline Democrats set. It offers Americans direct payments to help cover healthcare costs &#8212; an idea floated by President Donald Trump last month.
The health savings accounts created by the bill are limited for Americans making up to 700% of the federal poverty limit. Funds will range from $1,000 to $1,500 for 2026 and 2027.
While accusing Democrats of papering over the issues of Obamacare and enriching insurance companies, the GOP says its plan will directly help the American people.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Obamacare made healthcare unaffordable.
The Democrat solution, as usual, is to send billions in subsidies to big insurance companies.

Like the Democrats&#8217; plan to extend Obamacare subsidies, the GOP plan is not expected to pass the Senate, despite the GOP majority. Some Republicans are still unsure about how to handle the expiring subsidies, viewing the issue as a political lightning rod, especially ahead of the midterms. Moreover, the GOP doesn&#8217;t seem to have any support among Democrats, and the bill would need support from a handful of them to pass.
<h3>Other Plans In The Works</h3>
Republicans are still working on other healthcare plans, hoping to craft something that will garner enough votes to land on President Trump&#8217;s desk.
One plan, led by Republican Study Committee Chairman August Pfluger (R-TX) and Senator Rick Scott (R-FL), is called the More Affordable Care Act (MACA).
The plan would create HSA-style Trump Health Freedom Accounts, which would notably restrict use for abortion health plans, abortion services, transgender surgeries, or gender transition procedures &#8212; something most conservatives view as vital.
<div dir="ltr">
MACA would also create a new state waiver program within Obamacare to allow competition and drive down prices. It would allow health insurance plans to be sold across state lines and expand the availability of health insurance plans within existing Obamacare exchanges.
Another plan is being proposed by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY). Paul says his plan is not a &#8220;watered-down version&#8221; of Obamacare, like current GOP options.
&#8220;My plan actually fixes the system. It doesn’t cost taxpayers a dime, and it finally frees Americans to buy insurance across state lines through real co-ops. No bureaucracy, no bloated mandates – just competition, choice, and lower costs,&#8221; Paul said this week.
&#8220;Basically I would legalize the ability to buy insurance across state lines, through a co-op,&#8221; the senator said.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
