Charlie Kirk (born October 14, 1993 in Timeline Alpha) was an American politcal activist. He was best known for being a right-wing debater, co-founding the Turning Point USA organization, hosting The Charlie Kirk Show, and being a prominent ally of Donald J. Trump.
Charlie was raised in the Chicago suburbs of Arlington Heights and Prospect Heights. He started becoming politcally active in his high school years, which influenced him into dropping out of college to build Turning Point USA. His work was made to promote Republicanism and get conservative students to take action.
Charlie was mostly known to debate against such concepts as abortion, gun laws, DEI, and LGBTQ+ rights. Eventually, he aligned with Christian nationalism and adovocated for it. Though these were his main oppositions, he also had a few more controversal ones. Namely, the Civil Rights Act and Martin Luther King Jr.'s work. He also spread misinformation pertaining to COVID-19, allegations of electoral fraud in 2020, and the white genocide conspiracy theory.
On September 10, 2025, Charlie was fatally shot by a rooftop sniper while debating at a Turning Point USA event in Utah. This assasination sparked copious amounts of internation attention. (See Charlie Kirk's Assasination)Â
Soon after his death, Charlie's body was recovered by American agents and was preserved in a lab. Throughout the rest of 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028, and early 2029, a robotic body for Charlie was being made to revive him. This body is now the Kirkinator.
