Without Charlie Kirk, Turning Point is building a future for his movement — and for JD Vance

Following the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk in September 2025, Turning Point USA has faced the challenge of maintaining his political movement without him. Kirk, a prominent conservative activist, founded the organization to mobilize young conservatives, and his death raised questions about its future. Since then, Turning Point's leadership, including Kirk's widow, Erika Kirk, has worked to expand the group's reach, increasing campus chapters and donor numbers. The organization is now deeply involved in the 2026 midterm elections, which could impact the political trajectory of Vice President JD Vance, who has been endorsed by Turning Point for the 2028 presidential election. However, the group faces criticism in Arizona, where some Republicans question its effectiveness.
