Kirk began his rise to prominence when he co-founded Turning Point USA in 2012 – an organization that describes itself as a “national student movement dedicated to identifying, organizing, and empowering young people to promote the principles of free markets and limited government.”<\/em><\/p>\n

The activist has attracted a social media following, holding debates with liberals in academia. He has emerged as a vocal critic of ‘woke’ policies, and also denounced US support for Ukraine in the conflict with Russia.<\/p>\n

Kirk backed US President Donald Trump ahead of the 2016 election, as well as the 2024 vote. On Truth Social, Trump urged, “We must all pray for Charlie Kirk, who has been shot… GOD BLESS HIM!”<\/em> while calling him “a great guy from top to bottom.” <\/em>In a post of his own, Vice President J.D. Vance also called on his subscribers to “say a prayer for Charlie Kirk.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Commenting on the shooting in Utah on his Telegram channel, Russian presidential aide Kirill Dmitriev hailed Kirk for his calls for dialogue with Moscow.<\/p>\n

“The attempt on the life of a person advocating common sense and opposing hysteria highlights the depth of the rift in the US,”<\/em> the Russian official wrote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
