Charlie Kirk's murder confronts the United States with a reflection of its division.

His widow, Erika Kirk, remembered her husband this Friday with a speech in which she extended blame beyond Robinson, who, according to authorities, acted alone. She said that "the criminals responsible" for her husband's murder "have no idea what they have done." "They killed Charlie because he preached a message of patriotism, faith, and God's merciful love. Let me be clear: if you previously believed my husband's mission was powerful, you have no idea what you have just unleashed across this country and the world.
