Witness says TPUSA "vilifies" people and that the group "unequivocally condemned the murder of Charlie Kirk"
Summary
In a brief hearing exchange, a witness said their group "unequivocally condemned the murder of Charlie Kirk" and accused Turning Point USA (TPUSA) of "vilifying other people based on immutable characteristics," which the witness said exposed those people to a formal "listing." No formal action followed the exchange.
A witness testifying in the hearing said the organization "we unequivocally condemned the murder of Charlie Kirk" and accused Turning Point USA, known as TPUSA, of vilifying people based on immutable characteristics.
The exchange began when a questioner asked, "Have you all taken any position since Charlie Kirk?" and later followed up, "What about the listing of Charlie Kirk?" The questioner pressed whether the organization had taken an official stance and whether Charlie Kirk had been subject to any listing.
Responding, the witness said, "we unequivocally condemned the murder of Charlie Kirk." The witness then stated: "It is our position that TPUSA uh expresses views and vilifies other people based on immutable characteristics, exposing them to our listing." The witness attributed the organization's listing practice to what they described as vilifying conduct by TPUSA.
The exchange in the transcript did not record any formal motion, vote, or other committee action. No other speakers in the provided excerpt offered corrections or a formal response to the witness’s characterization of TPUSA.
