A Turning Point USA spokesperson shared new details about Charlie Kirk’s fatal injuries, calling the absence of an exit wound a 'miracle'
More details about the circumstances of Charlie Kirk’s death have come to light.
Andrew Kolvet, a spokesperson for Kirk’s Turning Point USA and an executive producer of The Charlie Kirk Show, claimed to have recently spoken with a doctor who treated Kirk’s fatal injuries.
“I want to address some of the discussion about the lack of an exit wound with Charlie,” Kolvet wrote via X on Saturday, September 20. “I’m usually not interested in delving into most of this kind of online chatter, and I apologize this is somewhat graphic, but in this case, the fact that there wasn’t an exit wound is probably another miracle, and I want people to know.”
The conservative political activist was shot and killed earlier in September while giving a speech in Utah. He was 31.
“I just spoke with the surgeon who worked on Charlie in the hospital. He said the bullet ‘absolutely should have gone through,’” Kolvet said on Saturday, noting the physician explained it’s “very normal” for a gunshot wound. “[He told me,] ‘I’ve seen wounds from this caliber many times and they always just go through everything. This would have taken a moose or two down, an elk, etc.’ But it didn’t go through. Charlie’s body stopped it.”
When Kolvet told the doctor that Kirk did not have an exit wound, he proclaimed, “It was an absolute miracle that someone else didn’t get killed.”
“‘His bone was so healthy and the density was so, so impressive that he’s like the man of steel. It should have just gone through and through. It likely would have killed those standing behind him too,’” Kolvet recalled of the doctor’s remarks. “In the end, the coroner did find the bullet just beneath the skin. Even in death, Charlie managed to save the lives of those around him.”
Although I didn't buy the government's narrative, when Candace began to share commentary about the assassination of Charlie Kirk, I suspected she was suffering from PTSD and I wanted her to "pump the breaks" until after Charlie's so-called memorial. I was wrong. These cases go cold within 48 hours and Candace Owens was right to immediately begin crowdsourcing the investigation with her audience. I'm sorry Candace---- you were right and I was wrong. Go MAX for Charlie!!!-GG
"No, I'm not not going to stop because you want me to, Erika. I'm not trying to hurt anybody. Not trying to hurt you or your team or anybody like that. But the truth is more important than people's feelings."
Andrew Kolvet, who produced The Charlie Kirk Show, is addressing Comedy Central's decision to pull the episode featuring the late conservati
Moises Mendez II at The Advocate:
Shortly after Charlie Kirk was shot during a talk at a Utah university earlier this month, Comedy Central made the decision to take down an episode of South Park featuring the right-wing commentator. Now, Andrew Kolvet — one of the executive producers for The Charlie Kirk Show and a close friend of Kirk — is saying that the late political influencer enjoyed the episode and would have wanted the network to continue airing it.
On Wednesday, Kolvet uploaded a post to X that read, "As someone who can speak with some authority on this, Charlie loved that he was featured in South Park. He told me many times. He would want the episode back up."
Kirk himself spoke about seeing a clip of the episode in a video for Fox News Digital earlier this year. "Honestly, my first reaction was that I kinda laughed," the controversial figure said, adding that he used to watch South Park in high school and, even without seeing the full episode, he considered it a source of pride. "It's kinda funny, and it kinda goes to show the cultural impact and the resonance that our movement has been able to achieve. So I look at this as a badge of honor."
Andrew Kolvet, a close friend of the late Charlie Kirk, said that he would have wanted the “Got A Nut” episode of South Park to remain on the air. Kirk himself praised the episode.
About halfway through the Young Women’s Leadership Summit in Grapevine, Texas, I got a talking to from Turning Point USA comms.
Andrew Kolvet, the organization’s chief spokesman, peeled me away from the line of young women I was speaking to warn me that he had gotten complaints about me, though he couldn’t name what they were beyond “weird questions”, and if I kept interviewing attendees under 18, I’d be removed from the conference. “I’m very familiar with your work,” Kolvet said. He reminded me these girls are “innocent,” and to lay off.
I’m not sure how I got on Kolvet’s radar, though I have an idea. But of course, I was offended by the implication I didn’t have the best interests of my subjects in mind. I spend 75% of my waking hours thinking about young people’s role in the current right-wing movement, the subject of my forthcoming book, so I went to Texas this year to give them a chance to speak for themselves.
If we’re really worried about who is preying on young conservative women, let’s listen in to what was being said on stage.
This year marked the 10th Young Women’s Leadership Summit, the largest annual conference for young women and girls in the conservative movement. The event is designed to pop on Instagram — the halls of the Grapevine, Texas conference hotel lined with cutesy photo opportunities everywhere you turn. The theme this year was “Home Sweet Home,” centered around a stage stylized as a Rococo-era sitting room complete with gold accented window frames and pleasant cream-colored couches, a small chandelier glittering above. The setup was framed by LCD screens, including the ceiling, which displayed whirling background graphics to hype up the crowd as speakers took the stage. It was my second time attending YWLS, a long-held point of fascination in my career, for the bizarre way the event artificially sutures glamorous, well-paid career women in right-wing media like Alex Clark, Dana Loesch, and Brett Cooper with the insistence on settling down and having babies before the audience graduates high school.

This year’s YWLS did a fantastic job bringing together the last year and a half of the Make America Healthy Again movement with rising currents of anti-feminism. No one better exemplifies this intersection than Alex Clark, host of Turning Point’s Culture Apothecary podcast, which offers luminary takes on why sunscreen is bad and raw milk is good. She is, according to Vanity Fair, in “close contact” with Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and since she spoke at a viral roundtable of right-wing health and wellness personalities hosted on Capitol Hill last September her social media following has exploded.
“If you don’t know me, my name is Alex Clark and the Guardian recently accused me of running a PSYOP to turn American women thin, fertile, and conservative. I’m here to publicly say the accusations are true!” A tinkering of cheers from the crowd.1 She was standing on stage in a tweed mini skirt, matching blazer, bouffant updo, and layered pearl accessories, reminding me more of Sarah Palin than the cottagecore aesthetic around her.
I looked around at the young women and girls sitting near me, fluttery floral summer dresses draping bodies of all sizes and shapes, oversized bows crowning loosely curled hair parted in the middle, listening attentively. “Thin, fertile, and conservative” is of course the exact message I’d been hearing for years from Clark and other conservatives targeting young women. The rise of MAHA has made this set especially body conscious, and to hear it stated so plainly jives with the “masks off” ethos we’re all suffering through under Trump 2. MAHA really just is 00s style disordered eating and fatphobia repackaged for the right-wing Instagram era.
After Clark’s opener, we got a Tammy Fae and Jim Bakker impression from Charlie and his wife Erika Kirk. Erika is a former Miss Arizona, who according to Kyle Spencer’s book Raising Them Right: The Untold Story of America’s Ultraconservative Youth Movement and its Plot for Power, first met Charlie while seeking a job at Turning Point USA. “I’m not going to hire you,” he told her when he was done with the interview. “I’m going to date you.” Again, Charlie Kirk’s behavior is something to warn your daughter about.

But the push is so much more powerful – a top-down message so extreme that it only survives because it is backed by right-wing billionaires. Turning Point has made an active choice to craft this message and sell it as hard as possible, rather than getting carried away by some overwhelming demand from the audience. It’s a piece of a wider war on young people, women in particular: stripping away reproductive rights, including access to birth control, gutting what remains of the social safety net that overwhelmingly benefits women and children, and persecuting, culturally and legally, anyone who strays from the traditional framework of heterosexual marriage.
Turning Point USA’s Young Women Leadership Summit (YLWS) this year features MAHA and “thin, fertile, and conservative” messaging and vibes.

Walter Einenkel at Daily Kos:
Vice President and cat hater JD Vance appeared on “The Charlie Kirk Show” Wednesday to falsely claim that left-wing political violence is out of control. He alleged that the “deep state” has shielded this supposed violence under the guise of First Amendment protections.
"And because we have such a big problem with left-wing political violence, we have to train the investigatory and law enforcement powers of the government to focus on that particular problem,” Vance said, before pivoting to the long-standing myth of paid liberal protesters. “If somebody shows up and is a paid protester, but then that person goes and riots and commits an act of violence, who paid for it?"
Malignant moron JD Vance pushed the BS narrative about “left-wing violence” being a “big problem”, when in reality we have a far-bigger right-wing violence problem.
From the 10.15.2025 edition of Real America's Voice/Salem Radio Network's The Charlie Kirk Show:
It's April 14th 2026, the world is on fire and the Vice President of the United States, JD Vance, flew to Athens, GA to rehabilitate Erika Kirk's image at yet another TPUSA tour stop. We are cooked.
