Erika Kirk, the widow of TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk, will be joining ‘The Five’ as a co-host next week.
She will be promoting her book, “Stop, in the Name of God: Why Honoring the Sabbath Will Transform Your Life,” which was finished a month before her husband was assassinated in Utah while speaking to college students. After a scheduled appearance on the December 9 airing of ‘Fox & Friends,’ Kirk will join ‘The Five’ as a co-host. Following that, her media blitz will continue with the ‘Will Cain Country’ podcast and a CBS News town hall hosted by Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss.
“Like so many people around the world, I will never forget the moment that Erika Kirk forgave her husband’s killer. I am eager to speak to her—and thrilled to be doing so in front of a group of Americans who I know will elevate the conversation,” Weiss gushed in a statement.

The discussion will reportedly focus on “grief, faith, politics, and more,” concepts that Kirk has unfortunately become intimately familiar with since her spouse’s untimely and public death. She has taken over as the CEO of Turning Point USA and is aiming to grow the organization to more campuses across the United States.
She has not been shy about the hard topics that are often associated with Charlie Kirk’s passing, such as growing political violence, gun violence, conservatism and faith. Refusing to back down from the legacy her husband was building, Erika Kirk addressed the “soul problem” that she says is behind the epidemic of those resorting to harm rather than discussion.
“What I’ve realized through all of this is that you can have individuals that will always resort to violence,” she said in a previous interview. “And what I’m afraid of is that we are living in a day and age where they think violence is the solution to them not wanting to hear a different point of view.”
“That’s not a gun problem, that’s a human — deeply human — problem. That is a soul problem, that is a mental [problem], that is a very deeper issue.”
