A 26-year-old Texas man was arrested Wednesday after posting explicit online threats to kill Erika Kirk — widow of the assassinated Charlie Kirk — ahead of her appearance at Turning Point USA’s Women’s Leadership Summit in San Antonio next week. Jacob Wenske was charged with two counts of making a terroristic threat — a third-degree felony — and faces up to ten years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
His online posts included the words “Death to Erika Kirk and every single speaker there” — echoing the same hateful ideology that authorities tied to the assassination of her husband just eight months ago. This woman buried her husband. She got back up. She went back to work. And they are still coming for her — which tells you everything about the kind of courage it takes to keep standing.
