Charlie Kirk’s widow has said her “cries” will “echo around the world like a battle cry” in a pointed message for “the evildoers responsible” for the assassination of the conservative activist.

On Friday, Erika Kirk delivered her first public remarks since the shooting, from the office where her late husband hosted his podcast.
