Vivian Kubrick, the daughter of legendary Hollywood director Stanley Kubrick, has launched a scathing social media attack on Erika Kirk, branding her a 'military operative' and 'sociopath'. The outburst came after Kirk delivered a speech for Turning Point USA's 'Make Heaven Crowded' tour, which Kubrick described as 'ghastly' and 'inauthentic'.
Kubrick's Accusations
In a series of posts on X, Kubrick wrote: 'I have never witnessed such a ghastly, inauthentic, phony performance in my life as this speech by Erika.' She claimed that despite encountering many 'phonies' in Hollywood, she felt compelled to speak out against Kirk. Kubrick went further, accusing the grieving widow of being a 'threat to my country' and asserting that Kirk is 'definitely some kind of sociopath' and likely a 'military or intelligence operative'.
Reaction to Kirk's Public Appearances
Kirk, 37, has been under scrutiny since she was seen sobbing after the shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. In the months following the public assassination of her husband, conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, Erika has faced false accusations from online conspiracy theorists claiming she was involved in his death. Kubrick also criticized Kirk's remarks at her husband's memorial in Arizona, where she publicly forgave the alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson, saying, 'that young man… I forgive him!' Kubrick described a video of Kirk kissing her slain husband's hand as 'wildly inappropriate' and 'horribly sinister'.
Call to Action Against Turning Point USA
Kubrick concluded her rant by urging President Donald Trump to 'kill' Turning Point USA, the organization founded by Charlie Kirk, and cut ties. She wrote: 'MR PRESIDENT - If we’re to win the midterms, you need to “kill” Turning Point USA and let some honest to God, authentic, super smart young patriots rally the American youth to fight for AMERICA FIRST.' Kubrick added, 'Charlie was TPUSA, no one can replace him.'
Background on Kubrick and Kirk
Vivian Kubrick is a self-described conservative who endorsed Trump in the 2024 election and donated to his campaign. She previously expressed confidence that her father would have broken with Hollywood and backed Trump. Meanwhile, Erika Kirk has announced she is stepping back from running Turning Point USA to spend time with her family. She and Charlie shared two young children at the time of his death.
