Turning Point USA, the organization Charlie Kirk founded to mobilize young conservatives, has seen a massive surge in interest and support since the activist’s assassination last week.

A statement from board members noted that Kirk “expressed to multiple executives that this is what he wanted in the event of his death.”

Turning Point USA is holding a vigil for Kirk after his death last week. There are also other events around it, including a free speech event.

April Gibson, the Bay County Moms for Liberty Chair, tried to start Turning Point USA chapters in 2022, but she said the interest wasn’t there. Now we are told that there’s been a major shift in that interest following the assassination of the organization’s founder, Charlie Kirk.
