Still not enough research for you? How about this source on the rabid bigotry #charliekirk's #TPUSA promotes?

Turning Point USA's history of racism and white nationalist ties

Charlie Kirk’s youth-focused right-wing organization Turning Point USA has become increasingly radicalized over the last decade, frequently leaning in to Christian fundamentalist rhetoric and lies about the 2020 election. On campuses across the country, TPUSA chapters and members have embroiled themselves in controversy over racist stunts and bigoted remarks of their own, while demonstrating increasing ties with the white supremacist “groyper” movement associated with Holocaust denying Gen-Z streamer Nick Fuentes. Kirk has repeatedly denied that racism exists within his organization, while continuously spouting virulently racist and bigoted remarks daily on his show, The Charlie Kirk Show.

Where is Turning Point USA located? What to know about Charlie Kirk's media empire

Charlie Kirk's media empire is more than a decade old and has outposts across the country.

USA TODAY
Their summary on Rightwing Extremist, & more Nazi than Charley Kirk, Nick Fuentes & his #groypers is also excellent. The Groypers are in the news because some speculate the #charliekirkshooter was a member since the group had #groyperwars with Kirk's #tpusa . All the Right on Right violence is very sad to watch but a few #assassinations from #GunViolence are the cost of protecting the Second Amendment, right Republicans? 😭

Nick Fuentes

Nick Fuentes is a white nationalist livestreamer who advocates pulling the Republican Party further to the extreme far-right end of the political spectrum. An outspoken admirer of fascists such as Mussolini, Fuentes emerged as an influential figure on the national stage during the now-infamous “Stop the Steal” movement, which relied on misinformation to falsely claim that Donald Trump had won the 2020 election and sought to overturn the results of it. Some Republican lawmakers have collaborated with his America First Foundation, which hosts an annual America First Political Action Conference (AFPAC) alongside the more mainstream Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), which it seeks to supplant.

Southern Poverty Law Center

Tl;dr: "Turning Point USA’s primary strategy is sowing and exploiting fear that white Christian supremacy is under attack by nefarious actors, including immigrants, the LGBTQ+ community and civil rights activists. ... TPUSA exploits complicated feelings of insecurity and anxiety to manufacture rage and mobilize support to revive and maintain a white-dominated, male supremacist, Christian social order."

If you are unfamiliar with #WhiteChristianNationalist Charlie Kirk's organization #TPUSA, or any violent Rightwing Extremist groups, then the SPLC is a great place to start! TPUSA is one of the better funded white washing hate groups.

Founded by Charlie Kirk, TPUSA’s effort to sow fear and division to enforce social hierarchies rooted in supremacism is emblematic of broader political project.
