A fun watch.

The Absolute Cringe that is Erika Kirk
From the first time I watched a video of Erika—well before the shooting—I remember having a strong reaction to her presentation style. Something about it struck me as overly polished and performative. I couldn’t quite articulate why at the time, but it felt less like someone speaking naturally and more like someone consciously playing a role.
Part of that impression came from how she framed herself publicly. She leaned heavily into the image of the submissive, dutiful stay-at-home wife, encouraging women to prioritize having children, staying home to raise them, and allowing their husbands to lead while they serve as supportive partners. To be clear, the core principle of parents raising their own children rather than relying heavily on daycare is something I actually agree with. So the issue wasn’t necessarily the values themselves.
What stood out to me was the presentation of those values. It often felt highly curated—almost like a brand or persona rather than an organic reflection of a private individual. When public figures adopt very defined roles like that, it can sometimes create a sense that the audience is seeing a performance rather than the full complexity of a person.
That doesn’t necessarily mean the beliefs are insincere, but it can make the overall impression feel unusual or difficult to read. From the beginning, her public persona struck me that way—carefully constructed and somewhat opaque, which left me with a lingering sense that something about it didn’t fully ring authentic to me. Nonetheless, I didn’t give it another thought.
Then after September 10th, the internet flooded us with the widow Kirk and it’s all something we cannot unsee. From her first public address to the country just 2 days after the event, a snowball of inauthenticity began - and hasn’t stopped since.
I want to point out two important things: one is that Erika had only been in Charlie's life for 6 years. SIX years only. It's around 7 years that you really get to know your spouse. Two: Charlie was very clear where he stood on marriage and parenting. Both he and Erika were very vocal about traditional roles and the wife staying home to raise the kids. She herself says there is no balance of work and child raising. To raise good kids, a parent must be dedicated to that position entirely. Keep that in mind.
Let’s go through this incredible schedule she has been on:
September 10, 2025 - shooting
September 11, 2025 - Erika is with the Vances' on Airforce Two. She is not with any family member or personal friend. She's with Usha and JD Vance. Weird.
September 12, 2025 - addressing the nation in Charlie's office. The fact alone that her husband's body wasn’t even cold yet, and she should have been comforting her kids and being a hot mess, she was apparently focused on addressing the nation with a 20-minute-long speech just TWO DAYS afterwards.
My mother died suddenly in 2020, and my siblings and I were devastated. Distraught. Basket cases. We didn't even hold a gathering or a funeral for 2 weeks. I can’t imagine in any way being presentable and composed enough to recite a long-ass speech to the nation. Wrong, weird, and Cringe level 100.
September 14, 2025 - She posts a video of herself hanging over his casket whispering I love yous and caressing his hands, while showing some big metal. She actually had to say to someone, “video me saying goodbye to Charlie so I can post it.” And sadly, this person agreed. It is beyond weird to the point of gross.
Here are some key statements she makes: 
- TPUSA will continue and it will be bigger and better than ever
- He's here, more than ever and would want us to get to work
- I will make sure you all have a job here, because you're all family (she gets choked up)
- I am here in the trenches with you
- You are all family
- He's "obviously" celebrating in heaven
- He would want everyone to work even harder
- I feel so blessed and honored
- Everyone grieves differently, so don't read into that

September 21, 2025 - The Memorial Celebration for Charlie Kirk. This event presented like a combo of an RNC rally and a Christian revival. Pyrotechnics galore. Thematic music. Preachy political speeches. People speaking and saying lots of words but none of them described or elaborated on who Charlie was as a person. There were merch tables to buy tshirts, hoodies, hats, etc. There were voter sign up tables. There were donor sign ups. Her performance was beyond performative. Cringe x 100.
Sept 23, 2025 - Company Zoom call (audio only) where she says the following:
- “You guys, we pulled off the event, of the century” with a giggle.
- Our merch sales hit over $200,000
- You guys, donations are over $100 million and growing
- We have like 50,000 hat orders to fill
- You guys have been putting in 70 hour weeks
- Charlie would want you to keep working
Sept 26, 2025 - The Charlie Kirk Show podcast guest. She is beaming. Big smiles. Laughing. Saying how she is “so excited” to move forward. Cringe level 12.
October 21, 2025 - White House Medal of Freedom for Charlie Kirk. Erika is dressed so inappropriately in a sheer black top that gives BDSM vibes. Charlie would never approve.
October 30, 2025 - Ol’ Miss TPUSA event. Erika shows up in TIGHT black leather pants. Charlie went on a rant once about women wearing leggings and skin tight pants. A big no-no. I believe he used the word "disgusting". This is also the event where she hugged JD Vance and had her hand running through his hair. It was so cringe. 50+
November 5, 2025 - Jesse Walters interview. This is when she reveals that Charlie's last night, he slept in his daughter's room and didn't say goodbye to her in the morning. She also reveals what she told her daughter about where daddy is. "He's working in Heaven with Jesus so he can afford your blueberry budget." I find that incredibly damaging to GiGi. That girl will either be in constant therapy, or on the pole. She was weird and cringy as per usual.
November 6, 2025 - Legacy Award for Charlie Kirk. Her choice of styling is just awful. In my opinion. The eye makeup is next level editorial photo shoot inappropriate.
November 10, 2025 - White House Sergio Gor appointment. Why?
November 24, 2025 - Megan Kelly live event. Another inappropriate black sheer lace outfit. Just poor taste.
December 3, 2025 - NYT Book Summit. Again, WHY?
December 7, 2025 - Mar-a-Lago TPUSA Fundraiser. $10,000 per plate. Yet another hideous, black dress. She's all smiles all night. 
December 8, 2025 - Hannity
December 9, 2025 - Fox and Friends
December 9, 2025 - Brian Killmeade
December 10, 2025 - Outnumbered
December 11, 2025 - Will Cain

December 13, 2025 - CBS Town Hall
December 15, 2025 - Candace Owens private meeting in Tennesee

December 28, 2025 - Fox Sunday News
Are you fucking kidding me??

Candace Owens will Save the World
This woman is my hero.
She and Charlie were undeniably best friends and her investigation of his death is fueled by the massive power of love to find out what happened to her friend. It is a beautiful thing.
She is the dear friend any person on Earth would be lucky to have.
She is singlehandedly exposing the corruption all over the world.
She does it with grace, tact, humor, integrity and realism.
She gives zero fucks.
She calls it as she sees it and millions of people world wide get it.
She is so down to Earth, so trustworthy, so on point, so many resonate with her
She calls out bullshit like no one else.
She is brilliant in her reporting, withholding just enough to let her subjects fall right into the trap, by either proving themselves or incriminating themselves. It's genius.
She is so thorough in her research, and always, 100% OF THE TIME has receipts.
She has built such a reputation that it's known that if Candace reports it - it is TRUE.
She expertly connects the dots others miss.
She could give a rat's ass about any success this topic has brought her.
She is FORMIDABLE as fuck and, like Charlie, can debate like a powerhouse. The two of them on college campuses destroy and dominate like bosses. It is purely amazing to watch.
Her investigation is so detailed, so thourough, that sometimes it’s hard to follow. She dives into the backgrounds of people involved with such detail that it sometimes seems insignificant, but it’s actually so relevant in the big picture. She lays down the foundations of people’s actions and behaviors to create the big picture. Why should we care about mysterious Egyptian planes? Why should we care about the actions of Erika’s uncle? Why should we care about a hangar in Delaware? We don’t have to. What Candace does is alert us to the presence of nefarious behavior which may or may not have anything to do with Charlie’s murder. She exposes people’s character. Whether they are implicated or not, it reveals the presence of inauthenticity.
Let’s be real, people who exhibit questionable behaviors and actions not explainable or acknowledged will most likely continue that behavior in all parts of their lives.
She is changing the world and I am so happy to witness her power.
If you’re not familiar with her, trust me—check her out. You might not agree with everything she talks about, and some of her topics might even rub you the wrong way, but she’s the real deal: fully independent, no nonsense, and not taking cues from some network or agency whispering in her ear. My people-reading instincts say she’s genuine—authentic, driven by truth and justice.
What I respect most about her is that her views have evolved over the years, and she openly acknowledges and owns her past words and actions. That kind of accountability is rare.
She’s testified before Congress several times, and each time people walk away impressed. She regularly goes toe-to-toe with Piers Morgan, which is always entertaining, and her debates with Ben Shapiro are something else entirely—she holds her own and then some. It’s pretty epic to watch.
I genuinely love what she’s bringing to the table. The world could use more voices like hers—and she’s clearly here for it.
