This story was originally reported by Amanda Becker of The 19th. Meet Amanda and read more of her reporting on gender, politics and policy. Erika Kirk, the widow of slain right-wing activist Charlie Kirk, concluded her eulogy for him on Sunday by saying that she was “tremendously honored” to be the new chief executive of…
According to the wisdom of Charlie Kirk, shouldn’t she be staying home and raising the kids, rather than embarking on this career thing, something women by nature aren’t suited for?

She’s just like Phyllis Schafly, you stay home but I’m out and about changing the world back to what it never was.

At the rate things are going, TPU will be required activity in every Red state like the Hitler Youth movement was in Germany.

That is exactly my read of the situation. She’s a true believer in the perfect world that never existed. She’ll happily advocate for a world that punishes life choices that don’t align with her preconceived notions while advocating against policies which could actually allow people to build stronger families.

Why do all these folks have crazy eyes? Is a prerequisite for or a result of their political leanings?
One of those holier than thou types then. Probably thinks left-handed people are evil. Well bless her Christian heart.

“A key component of marriage for Erika Kirk is having and raising Christian children.”
Too bad that isn’t a Jesus (or Paul) thing:
For, behold, the days are coming, in the which they shall say, “Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.”
-Jesus at Luke 23:27
Childless [cat ladies] for the win.

So she wants OTHERS to be stay-at-home tradwives, but she gets to be out in the world working and running things. Strange how the lure of filthy lucre can so easily corrupt these Xtians and their pieties. Same as it ever was, from Anita Bryant to Phyllis Schafly who were against the ERA while working for a paycheck to be professionally against the ERA.

Same here… motherhood is the singular most important thing she can do, but she’s also the new CEO of TPUSA, plus all of her other side gigs.
Left-handed people are God’s children, but should not get any special accomodations for their differences. If I see a left-handed pilot, I’m gonna be like “boy, I hope he’s qualified”.
Sums it up for me, too.
