Charlie Kirk Text Messages Leak From Day Before His Death

After the tragic assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, conservative allies have all mourned in their own ways.The tragedy has also resulted in many wanting to know what was going on with Kirk in the last few months of his life and if they could find any clues concerning his death from that.One of the main things that this last group of folks has been talking about is Kirk’s relationship with Israel. Kirk had long been a strong advocate of Israel and its right to exist in public.

Some people close to Kirk, on the other hand, say that the slain conservative leader was genuinely growing and changing.

People are saying that Kirk’s ideas on Israel changed after he died. They say that while he still supported Israel, he was starting to have questions about how aggressive Israel’s military was and how closely the U.S. was tied to Israeli policy.

Controversial podcaster Candace Owens published text exchanges that seemed to show that Kirk was at least becoming less interested in Jewish contributors.

Many quickly discounted Owens’ statements. However, TPUSA has said that the texts were real.

Andrew Kolvet of TPUSA said on Tuesday’s episode of “The Charlie Kirk Show” that those communications were legitimate.

“I want to take the start of this show to address some of the things that have been going around on public, namely about a text, a group text chain that has been made known and released by Candace Owens,” Kolvet said to begin the show. “And I just want to address it head-on, because that was a text grab, a screen grab, that I had shared with people.

“So it is authentic, and I want to go into it, because I actually am really excited that the truth is out there.”Some of the apparently authentic messages shared by Kirk in that text chain include:

“Just lost another huge Jewish donor. $2 million a year because we won’t cancel Tucker [Carlson],” one message from Kirk read. “I’m thinking of inviting Candace.”

“Jewish donors play into all the stereotypes,” Kirk added. “I cannot and will not be bullied like this … Leaving me no choice but to leave the pro Israel cause.”

Kolvet and co-host Blake Neff then proceeded to explore the entire ordeal a bit more.

Initially, Kolvet and Neff opened up about some of the criticisms they’ve both been getting that they haven’t spoken out enough about Kirk’s death. The two revealed that they’ve both been relatively mum due to the pending investigation into Kirk’s assassination.

Neither man wants to be the reason the trial or investigation goes awry with an errant, emotional comment.

Then, it was time to address the texts themselves and the controversy they’ve caused.

“Charlie was adamantly free speech, and I am not personally going to impugn anybody’s character, who is asking questions and looking for answers,” Kolvet said. “And I will say that that text chain is consistent with public frustrations that he voiced many times.”

Kolvet added: “This is consistent with things that he told his friends.”

Kolvet continued: “What is the truth about the way Charlie felt about Israel? Well, it’s complicated, and it’s nuanced, and it’s [something Charlie was wrestling with] for months, and it’s probably somewhere between the Bibi letter and the … group text.”

Kirk had previously written a glowing letter of support for Israel to Prime Minister Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu — which also came to light posthumously.

“I don’t even think there’s ‘a between’ about it,” Neff chimed in. “I think those are extremely consistent with the exact same worldview. Charlie was not hiding things from people.”
