Erika Kirk, the widow of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, condemned comedians and political commentators for joking about political violence, according to The Hill's report on her remarks. The outlet's account is the sole source for this story.

The criticism followed a stand-up performance in which Dave Chappelle said he had been in a "good mood" since her husband's assassination, The Hill reported. The report describes the comedian's remark as the immediate subject of Kirk's response.

The Hill reported that Kirk's comments were aimed at what she described as leftist podcasters, comedians, and commentators who laugh about political assassination. The report presents her criticism as directed at that group of public figures.

The Hill's report does not give the full text of Chappelle's performance in the summary available for this story. Details about the setting of the performance, the audience, and any response from Chappelle were not available to this account, and The Hill's summary does not address them. Where the report and its summary differ, none were identified in the material used for this story.

The Hill described Charlie Kirk as the late conservative activist and identified his death as an assassination. Each of those points rests on the outlet's account, and this story does not add facts beyond what that account states.

As The Hill presents it, the exchange is one in which a widow criticized a comedian and other public figures over remarks about her husband's killing. The report does not indicate whether other comedians or commentators have responded to Kirk's criticism.
