‘We keep fighting’: Erika Kirk tells Jesse Watters she plans to achieve Charlie Kirk’s ‘wildest dreams’ for TPUSA

Watters asked, "What do you hope to achieve for Charlie and for the country?"

"Oh my goodness, all of his wildest dreams for this organization and more," Kirk, who was named board chair and CEO of Turning Point USA in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination, replied. "He left me a blueprint and all of his journals. But more so than that, I was his bulb for literally everything. He shared everything with me, his vision, his dreams, and I know now more than ever, and he was always a hard worker but now more than ever, he’s up in heaven orchestrating and sitting and strategizing and I can just feel it."

"And so all I want is to be able to make sure we honor Charlie, we keep fighting the good fight, and we do it in such a bold and powerful way. We’re not afraid. I’m not afraid."

Erika Kirk appeared at Ole Miss on Wednesday for a Turning Point USA campus speaking event alongside Vice President JD Vance. Kirk told the audience, "At this moment, every single one of us has a choice to make: whether we stand for freedom or we’re gonna just fall for everything else."

Speaking to the students, she said, "I just want this to be the generation that says, 'We will not apologize for loving our country first. We will not be silent about our faith. We will not back down when the world tells us to kneel, because we bow only to the King of kings.'"

She later added, "And when you get to the end of your life, will the Lord be proud of what you stood for? Will you be able to say that you ran the race and that you fought the good fight?"

"Or will you realize that you wasted your time that the Lord has blessed you with, chasing after things that didn't even matter? Hold that into perspective and remember: being the courageous generation that you are, stand up for the truth, defend life, love your family fearlessly."

"Love this country, defend her... and serve our God," she added. "Don't think it's someone else's role to do it. You do it... do it for Charlie."
