Erika Kirk is doing the rounds as she promotes her late husband Charlie’s last book, Stop, in the Name of God: Why Honoring the Sabbath Will Transform Your Life. However, not everyone is a fan. Jennifer Welch, host of the “I’ve Had It” podcast accused Kirk of being a “grifter” and a hypocrite. Welch took issue with a recent appearance Kirk had at the DealBook summit in Manhattan, where Kirk discussed her concerns about young women. “What I don’t want to have happen is young women in the city look to the government as a solution to put off having a family or a marriage because you’re relying on the government to support you,” she said.

“You actually allow yourself to be afforded all of the luxuries of all of the civil rights fights that the suffragettes and other women fought for you to be able to be a full-time working mother, to be the CEO of a company. You just weaponize your gender to rubes so that you can grift off of them,” said Welch. “You are an opportunistic grifter who weaponizes your gender to demean women, and you are a walking, talking, breathing example as to why nobody, number one, wants to be a Christian, and, number two, wants to be a female hypocrite such as yourself,” She called Charlie “an unrepentant racist and a homophobe.” She accused Kirk of changing outfits to fit certain perceptions. “She is a grifter, and just look at the costume changes. Look at the costume changes. Look at the affect, and how she does that. It’s wild. This woman should be kicked to the curb,” she declared.

Turning Point USA spokesperson Andrew Kolvet sent a statement to Newsweek in response to Welch’s remarks. “For Jennifer Welch to call Charlie’s widow a ‘grifter’ is so beneath contempt that it doesn’t merit a serious reply,” he wrote. The internet, however, had its own thoughts. “Jennifer Welch is a dark, pathetic, angry soul. May God bless her, despite the fact that she’s a proud atheist,” wrote Sage Steele. “It’s gross and dehumanizing to attack a widow with young children after just witnessing his public assassination,” wrote Democratic Senator John Fetterman. “It shouldn’t be controversial to put our political views aside and extend the grace for a deeply traumatized family to grieve.” “The Left went out looking for their own Joe Rogan and they seem to have settled on a repulsive hobgoblin with the charm of a corporate HR manager, the facial dexterity of a stroke victim, and the IQ of a squid,” wrote The Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh. “Good choice, guys. I’m sure this will work out well.”
