Turning Point USA drew over 2,000 attendees to honor Charlie Kirk and continue his movement at its first event since his assassination.
- On Monday, Turning Point USA held its first campus event since Charlie Kirk's assassination, drawing more than 2,000 people to Northrop Auditorium at the University of Minnesota.
- Earlier this month, the tour was announced after Kirk was fatally shot while speaking at Utah Valley University, with alleged shooter Tyler Robinson involved.
- Hosted by Michael Knowles, the event required attendees to preregister, be 18 or older, show valid ID, and featured chanting captured in a Turning Point video.
- Turning Point has announced 11 other stops and will continue the tour with the next stop Wednesday night at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Virginia, featuring Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin and planned guests Tucker Carlson and Rob Schneider.
- Since Kirk's killing, commentators amplified rhetoric against liberals despite authorities not sharing evidence linking the 22-year-old alleged shooter to left groups.
