RIP Charlie Kirk

This is a rare, non-automated email that I needed to write: 

Yesterday, on 9/10/25, the GOAT right-wing activist for youngins, Charlie Kirk, was brutally assassinated. 

Charlie and I didn’t agree on everything. But nobody rallied young folk and got them to think for themselves instead of getting propagandized by their universities like Charlie did. 

I’ve seen many folks on the left celebrating his assassination - not realizing that the martyr they just created will not be good for them. Nothing makes anger bubble under my skin than seeing people who allegedly “love everyone” expose their true intentions, then lie about it when they face backlash. 

What Charlie created with Turning Point USA will give entrepreneurs and right-leaning people something to study for decades to come. 

I’m heartbroken for his kids, his wife, his family, and all the young people he could’ve converted to the good guys side. 

I’m heartbroken for America, too. 

I also don’t know what to do. 

This email doesn’t do his legacy justice. 

Neither does the donation I just made to Turning Point USA. 

But, if you’d like to follow my lead and also donate to TPUSA, hit the link below:

No, it won’t bring Charlie back. 

It won’t give two young kids their father back. 

Nor will it give a widow her husband back. 

But… it’s something. 

Anyway, no call to action in this one. 

Just RIP Charlie Kirk.
