Standing next to Charlie’s chair in his studio at the Turning Point USA headquarters in Phoenix, Ariz., Erika, through tears, thanked the first responders and law enforcement officials that helped in the aftermath of his murder, including those who worked to catch the suspect. She also thanked Vice President JD Vance and his wife, Usha, as well as President Donald Trump and the entire Trump family.

Erika spoke of his unwavering faith: “Two days ago, my husband, Charlie went to see the face of his savior, and his God. Charlie always said that when he was gone, he, he wanted to be remembered for his courage and for his faith. In one of the final conversations that he had on this earth, my husband witnessed for his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Now and for all eternity, he will stand at his savior’s side wearing the glorious crown of a martyr.”And she boldly proclaimed:  “The evildoers responsible for my husband’s assassination have no idea what they have done,” she said, adding, “They killed Charlie because he preached a message of patriotism, faith, and of God’s merciful love.”Erika also warned naysayers: “They should all know this: If you thought that my husband’s mission was powerful before, you have no idea. You have no idea what you just have unleashed across this entire country and this world. You have no idea. You have no idea the fire that you have ignited within this wife. To everyone listening tonight across America, the movement my husband built will not die.  It won’t. I refuse to let that happen. It will not die. All of us will refuse to let that happen. No one will ever forget my husband’s name, and I will make sure of it. It will become stronger, bolder, louder, and greater than ever.”

She vowed that his campus tour will continue, that his radio show and podcast will go on and that Charlie’s voice will “ring out louder and more clearly than ever, and his wisdom will endure.”
