Erika Kirk is looking back on her late husband, Charlie Kirk, almost five months after he was assassinated in broad daylight.
The Turning Point USA CEO, 37, shared a carousel of images to Instagram on Thursday, January 29, that included pictures and videos of the right-wing political activist, who was assassinated on September 10 at age 31.
“I relive you in a thousand quiet ways,” the mother of two — who shares a son and a daughter with her late husband — began in the caption. “Especially in these DC memories from a year ago…”
“It’s weird even typing out that this was a year ago. I replay it all,” she continued. “The way you love our babies, how we soaked in every moment for the season you worked so hard for, and the quiet moments of just the way we looked at each other when words weren’t needed because the depth of love was so felt. It just loops like a sacred film.”
“And I find myself reliving the past, not to stay there, but to rewitness God’s humbling grace…a living testimony that the Lord was faithful then, and He is faithful still,” Erika concluded.
Candace Owens has been slamming Erika via her YouTube channel and publishing the leaks for her followers.
On a Wednesday, January 28, live stream on Owens’ channel, the political commentator, 36, shared what she claimed was a “corporate-wide call” that took place “five-and-a-half days” after Charlie’s death.
Owens provided commentary as she played the alleged Zoom at various points throughout the live stream, appearing to point out that Erika made staff feel like they are a family only to result in employees being allegedly fired (per a post on Owens’ X account).
According to Owens, Erika sounded “like she’s about to cry when she discusses specifically them keeping their jobs, not Charlie having been assassinated in front of the world, but the prospect of their employment.”
Owens also played what she said is the beginning of the alleged Zoom call, when Erika appears to sign on in good spirits.
“She starts by laughing, which I find to be interesting,” Owens said.

Earlier this week, Owens shared an alleged leaked phone call between the Turning Point USA CEO and her team discussing Charlie’s public memorial service, allegedly describing it as the “event of the century.”
Tension between the two women seemingly began when Owens started to publicly question the circumstances surrounding Charlie’s death. The two allegedly met in private to discuss the discourse, but it is unclear where their current relationship stands.
