Turning Point USA Continues Campus Tour Following Charlie Kirk Assassination

Following the assassination of Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, the organization has announced a star-studded lineup of prominent conservative speakers to continue the American Comeback Tour, now renamed the Turning Point Tour in his honor. The tour, which promotes conservative values on college campuses, will feature figures such as Michael Knowles, Megyn Kelly, Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, Sen. Mike Lee, Vivek Ramaswamy, Tucker Carlson, and others across multiple university stops. The University of Minnesota event, originally scheduled for Kirk, will proceed as planned with Knowles hosting, expecting a full house despite increased security measures and restrictions on attendees. Erika Kirk, Charlie's widow and newly appointed CEO of Turning Point USA, has pledged to carry on her late husband's mission, emphasizing that his murder has fueled their activism. Memorial services for Kirk drew large crowds including President Trump and Vice President JD Vance, signaling strong support within conservative circles. Turning Point USA aims to amplify Kirk's legacy through intensified youth mobilization and campus debates despite the tragic loss.
