The CHARLIE KIRK file
Charles James Kirk (October 14, 1993 โ September 10, 2025) was an American right-wing political activist, author, and media personality. He co-founded the conservative organization Turning Point USA (TPUSA) in 2012 and was its executive director. He was the chief executive officer (CEO) of Turning Point Action (TPAction) and a member of the Council for National Policy (CNP). The Washington Post described him as "one of the most prominent voices on the right" in his later years.[2]
Kirk was born and raised in the Chicago suburbs of Arlington Heights and Prospect Heights, Illinois. In high school, Kirk actively engaged in politics, supporting Republican candidateMark Kirk(no relation) and his U.S. Senate campaign. He briefly attended Harper College before dropping out to pursue political activism full-time, influenced by Tea Party member Bill Montgomery. In 2012, Kirk founded TPUSA, a conservative student organization that quickly grew with backing from donors likeFoster Friess.

FOSTER FRIESS
In addition to Santorum's faith, opposition to womenโs abortion rights, and hawkish foreign policy leanings, the possibility of defeating incumbent President Barack Obama was a major component of Friess's decision to back Santorum's campaign.[27] Friess reportedly considered major contributions to American Crossroads, the super PAC founded by Republican National Committee chair Ed Gillespie and formerGeorge W. Bush White House strategist Karl Rove.[28][29]
Friess also donated $100,000 to Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker to help defeat the Democrats' recall effort in 2011. He reportedly invested more than $3 million in conservative commentatorTucker Carlson'sThe Daily Caller website.[22] At one of the semi-annual, private seminars held by the Koch brothers in June 2011, Friess was recognized for his donation exceeding $1 million to theKochs'political activities.[30]
While being interviewed by NBC correspondent Andrea Mitchell regarding contraception, Friess said, "And this contraceptive thing, my gosh, it's so โ it's such โ inexpensive, you know, back in my days, they used Bayer Aspirin for contraception. The gals put it between their knees and it wasn't that costly."[25][31] Friess later apologized for the comment. [32]
Friess was also an advisor to Turning Point USA, a conservative youth organization to which he donated seed money.[33]
In October 2017, Friess said he was exploring a possible candidacy for the Senate challenging Wyoming Senator John Barrasso for the Republican nomination,[34] at the request ofSteve Bannon.[35] However, in April 2018, he instead decided to enter the crowded Republican field to replace term-limited Governor Matt Mead. Friess was defeated in the primary, coming in second to State Treasurer Mark Gordon by 38,951 votes (33%) to 29,842 (25.3%).[35]

Cardinal Dolan: Charlie Kirk Is a โModern Day Saint Paulโ19 Sep 2025
Friday on FNCโs โFox & Friends,โ Cardinal Timothy Dolan said the late Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk was a โmodern day St Paul.โ
Dolan said, โWhen I heard the tragic news, I said, I wonder who he was. And then all of a sudden, thereโs overwhelming, this overwhelming sense of sorrow and kind of renewal and. And I thought, I got to learn about this guy. And the more I learned about him, I thought, this guyโs a modern day Saint Paul. He was a missionary. Heโs an evangelist. Heโs a hero. Heโs one, I think that knew what Jesus meant when he said, the truth will set you free. And to do it. No, I understand he was pretty blunt and he was pretty direct. He didnโt try to avoid any controversy. He didnโt even try to avoid confrontation. The difference is the way the mode, the style that he did it always with respect.โ
He added, โAnd not only was that a gracious, kind of virtuous thing to do, itโs effective because when your opponents see this guy kind of respects me. We kind of disagree here, but, he kind of enjoys me, and heโs thanking me for being here, and heโs telling me heโs he appreciates the trust I have in him and sharing my views. I thought, this guy can teach us something.โ
