Political violence is abhorrent. I have not celebrated Kirk's death.

Charlie Kirk, right-wing activist and founder of Turning Point USA, wants to make America Christian again
Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, once advocated the separation of church and state. Now he embraces Christian nationalism and is campaigning for Donald Trump.
Kirk promoted this white nationalist conspiracy theory, which alleges that demographic change in the United States is a plot to replace white Americans. In August 2025, Kirk also accused a Black Democratic lawmaker of being part of an "attempt to eliminate the white population".
