Erika Kirk is speaking out after the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting scare over the weekend.

The TPUSA CEO had promised to give a statement on the matter in the days before and has now done so in an eight-minute rant she shared on her X page.

In the video, Erika Kirk made a number of claims, including that the leftists have fueled a culture of radicalization, which she believes contributed to her husband’s death.

The TPUSA CEO Seemingly Blamed Leftists For The WHCD Shooting Incident

Over the weekend, Erika Kirk was among the high-profile attendees at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner who were left shaken by a shooting scare.

Taking to her X account, the mother of two addressed the incident in a lengthy post, where she appeared to place the blame for the incident on the actions of left-leaning groups, though she did not explicitly name them.

“It seems to me that nothing will ever be enough for the evil in this world. Our country has become unrecognizable. These people have perverted the truth to the point that they motivated the murder of my husband,” the TPUSA CEO began in the post.

She added, “They have continuously tried to assassinate the president. And anyone who stands in their way is labeled hateful, racist, fascist, and every other trigger word that is grossly dishonest.”

Erika Kirk Said US Citizens Are Being Radicalized

In her rant, Erika also revealed the identity of the shooter, Cole Thomas Allen, who worked as a part-time tutor at C2 Education.

She found it disturbing that someone entrusted with teaching children the future of the country could be so unhinged as to attempt to murder the president of the United States.

The TPUSA ceo linked the shooter’s actions to what she described as the “systemic indoctrination and radicalization of our own citizens,” arguing that, in her view, it has contributed to a rise in political violence in recent years.

“This is what got my husband killed,” Erika said. “This is what has led to three legitimate attempts on President Trump’s life. And I can speak firsthand to that unbearable toll that this must take on our First Lady.”

Further taking a swipe at the left, Erika said that such political violence has barely elicited any empathy from them, adding that in some cases, some feel “a sick disappointment that the shooter was unsuccessful.”

The Widow Calls Out Jimmy Kimmel, Candace Owens, And Druski

As she shared her thoughts further on the WHCD incident, Erika did not shy away from naming names.

She called out comedian Jimmy Kimmel, referencing comments he made on his show in which he joked that Melania Trump had “the glow of an expected widow.”

Erika described the remarks as cruel, suggesting that those who make such jokes would not find them funny if they were directed at their own families.

She also criticized Candace Owens, a prominent podcaster and former associate of her late husband, who has been one of her most vocal critics in recent months. Additionally, she took aim at Durski, who created a bizarre parody of her, along with others she accused of contributing to ongoing attacks against her.

“Every morning I wake up to a new headline lying about me. I have comedians dressing up in white face. I have… People saying I’m not fit to be CEO. And I have Candace Owens claiming I murdered my husband. And the list goes on and on and on,” she continued.

Erika Kirk Urged Citizens To Come Together

Erika concluded her remarks by pointing to what she described as a “serious epidemic of dehumanization” affecting the country.

She said it should not be normal for the most unthinkable tragedies to become routine in daily headlines.

According to the mother of one, situations like this now require Americans to come together, warning that failure to do so could risk the country’s future.

“I am choosing to fight for America, for my children, for your children, for and for our humanity. Because we all need to do our part. And by the grace of God, we will succeed, and America will remain what she was always called to be, a shining city on a hill, a light to the world,” Erika noted.

How Critics Reacted To The TPUSA CEO’s Comments On The WHCD Shooting

On social media, reactions have been somewhat split after Erika addressed the shooting incident in her eight-minute-long video.

Some supporters praised her for being brave and speaking out against political violence.

A person wrote, “We love you, Erika. Thank you for stepping up and doing what you do for this country and God!”

However, the majority seemed to be critical of Erika’s claims in the video. One critic noted, “No president has had that many assassination attempts in history? Erika, you might want to look that up.”

Another said, “Just stop. You continue to make it worse. Fire whoever told you this was a good idea.”
