The most accurate Charlie Kirk
obituary yet...
Charles James Kirk, 31, died on Wednesiiay
from a gunshot to the neck at a Utah
Valley University campus event just as he
was trying to deflect a question
about mass shootings by suggesting they were
largely a function of gang violence. He died with a
net worth of $12 million, which he made by
espousing horrific and bigoted views in the name of
advancing Christian nationalism. The foundation of
his empire was the group he cofounded and led,
Turning Point USA, which is a key youth-
recruitment arm of the MAGA movement.
Kirk was able to launch Turning Point at the age of
18 because he received money from Tea Party
member Bill Montgomery, right-wing donor Foster
Feiss, and his own father, also a prolific right-wing
donor. He was an unrepentant racist, transphobe,
homophobe, and misogynist who often wrapped his
bigotry in Bible verses because there was no other
way to pretend that it was morally correct.
He had children, as do many vile people. (0)
