What did Erika Kirk Say?
Erika Kirk spoke about her late husband, Charlie Kirk, the conservative activist and co-founder of Turning Point USA, who was tragically killed during an event at a college in Utah.
“They killed Charlie because he preached a message of patriotism, faith and of God’s love,” she said, adding, “They should all know this. If you thought my husband’s mission was powerful before, you have no idea. You have no idea what you have unleashed across this country and this world.”
What did JD Vance Say that Sparked Backlash?
“Now, most Sundays, Usha will come with me to church. As I’ve told her, and as I’ve said publicly- do I hope, eventually, that she is somehow moved by the same thing that I was moved by in church? Yeah, I honestly do wish that because I believe in the Christian gospel and I hope eventually my wife comes to see it the same way,” JD Vance said at the event. The comment quickly drew an expected backlash on the internet, with many accusing JD Vance of making remarks that went against the principle of religious freedom.
