Elon Musk stunned the USA by announcing an unexpected pledge of $50 million a year to the Charlie Kirk Memorial Fund. Established by Erika Kirk, the fund will provide scholarships to thousands of students—whom Charlie once called the country’s future—and will directly support the programs, projects, and commitments Erika is leading following her husband’s sudden passing.
A video of Elon Musk and Erika Kirk at Charlie Kirk’s memorial service has surfaced on social media. While the video shows the two of them sharing a brief chat, a photo from the moment shows Musk hugging Erika, seemingly comforting her.
Netizens hailed the moment in the comment section. “It was so cool for Elon to be there. A true patriot!” one user wrote. “When Elon shows up, you know the movement is bigger than politics,” one user wrote, while another said, “This fills my heart with joy”.
“She’s just gone through the worst a wife must endure at such a very young age. GOD BLESS Erika with YOUR LOVE and unending comfort,” one user wrote. Another said, “Nothing can stop the way we are all uniting”. “The nation is healing,” said a user. Another wrote, “Erika’s strength meets support from those who truly understand her loss.”
