America lost a true patriot yesterday. Charlie Kirk, the young conservative leader who changed everything for our movement, was gunned down at just 31 years old. He was doing what he loved most – speaking to college students about freedom and conservative values at Utah Valley University.
This brave young man built Turning Point USA from nothing into a powerhouse that recruited thousands of young Americans to the Republican Party. While the left controlled every campus in America, Kirk fought back hard. He gave young people hope and showed them that conservative ideas could win.
The numbers don’t lie about what Kirk accomplished. In just four years, he helped boost Republican support among young voters by double digits. His work helped Republicans win back the House, Senate, and presidency last year. No other conservative leader did more to reach America’s youth than Charlie Kirk.
President Trump called Kirk “a great guy from top to bottom” and asked Americans to pray for him. That says everything you need to know about the kind of man we lost. Kirk stood with Trump through thick and thin, never backing down from the radical left’s attacks.
This shooting reminds us of the dangerous political violence plaguing our country. Just like the repeated attempts on President Trump’s life, this attack shows how far the left will go to silence conservative voices. They can’t win with ideas, so they turn to violence.
Kirk was more than just a political fighter – he was a man of deep faith. He started Turning Point Faith to help religious Americans stand up for their beliefs. He knew that without God, America would fall to the forces trying to destroy our nation.
The conservative movement faces a huge hole without Charlie Kirk’s leadership. He proved that young Americans hunger for freedom and traditional values when given the choice. His legacy will inspire countless young patriots to carry on the fight.
America’s college campuses are darker places today without Charlie Kirk’s voice. But his work will live on through every young conservative he inspired to love this great nation. We must honor his memory by never giving up the fight for freedom.
