Vice President Vance Hosts Kirk's Show, Discusses Impact of Fatherhood and Marriage

Catherine Salgado : Sep 16, 2025  PJ Media

"...Maybe the best way that I can contribute, and the best way that I could honor my dear friend, is to be the best husband that I can be, to be the kind of husband to my wife that he was to his." -VP JD Vance

BCN Editor's Note: Vice President JD Vance did a good job hosting his good friend's show on Monday, as the following article points out. But if you have a little over 13 minutes to spare, I encourage you to watch JD's closing remarks on the show. He spoke of how he longs for the country to be unified, but noted that if we want political violence to stop, "we have to be honest about the people who are celebrating it and the people who are financing it..." His words are strong, but necessary in light of the disgusting attacks and lies hurled at those who are standing for truth, and the sickening celebration by some on the left, over Charlie Kirk's assassination. Click Here to watch those closing remarks. -Aimee Herd, Breaking Christian News (Screengrab image: via Real America's Voice)

[PJMedia.com] Charlie Kirk inspired him to be a better husband and father, JD Vance declared Monday.

In an emotional segment of Vance hosting Charlie Kirk's show, the vice president reflected on the importance of fatherhood and the tragedy of Kirk's wife and children losing their husband/dad so suddenly and violently.

Only a week ago, 31-year-old Charlie Kirk was hosting his own show, with the prospect of years of work and family ahead. But last Wednesday, a crazy leftist shot Kirk in the neck at Utah Valley University and killed him. Vance, who credits Kirk with helping further his own career and who transported Kirk's body back in a casket on Air Force Two to Arizona, reflected on the "heartbreaking" but "amazing" meeting he had with Charlie's widow.

Vance praised the "courage" of Erika Kirk, an "incredibly brave soul," and said he had told her how Kirk died too young, "but he died a happy man because of you, because the family that you gave him, because of the home and the life that you guys had built together. And we sat for about an hour, and we talked about Charlie." Even though Vance is "a person who literally speaks for a living," he had a hard time finding words of consolation.

"My wife was there," Vance stated. "And [Erika] said to me that Charlie never raised his voice, that he never cussed at her, that he was never cross or mean-spirited to her." That is a genuinely exceptional tribute, and Vance admitted that though he is "proud of being a husband, [and] I think that on the great balance of things, that I'm a pretty good husband, but I can never say that I was never unpleasant with my wife. I can never say that I've never raised my voice to my wife." Struck, Vance declared:

"I took from that moment that I needed to be a better husband and I needed to be a better father, because of all these moments that I shared just the last few days, the books that I've read to my kids, going up to their bedroom and kissing them and hugging them before bed. I just realized that all of these moments that I get to have, Charlie is not able to have them anymore, and Charlie's kids and his beautiful wife are not able to have them anymore. And maybe the best way that I ca n contribute, and the best way that I could honor my dear friend, is to be the best husband that I can be to be the kind of husband to my wife that he was to his."...
