Erika Kirk, who now leads Turning Point USA after her husband Charlie Kirk was shot and killed while speaking at Utah Valley University in September, announced that she and Candace Owens planned a private, in-person discussion and asked that public exchanges be paused until after their meeting.At a CBS News town hall moderated by Bari Weiss, Erika reflected on grief, defended Charlie Kirk’s record, condemned those who justified his killing, described her spontaneous yet faith-driven decision to forgive the accused, and urged an end to escalating political violence and antisemitism.She has also addressed Owens’s unfounded claims in other media appearances, telling Weiss “Stop. That’s it. That’s all I have to say. Stop.” and telling Fox News’s “Outnumbered” that she did not have time to “address the noise,” while officials continue investigating the shooting and the private meeting could determine whether public disputes over the death and related conspiracy claims continue.
