AAPS News October 2025: Turning Point [USA]
2026-02-18
[Association of American Physicians and Surgeons] When a nation is on a path to losing its identity, traditions, morality, and freedoms, it needs to turn around.

Charlie Kirk’s Turning Point USA organization, which he founded in 2012 when he was 18 years old, states its objectives are to "identify, educate, train, and organize students to promote the principles of fiscal responsibility, free markets, and limited government" and to build the "most organized, active, and powerful conservative grassroots activist network on high school and college campuses across the country" (https://tpusa.com).

Charlie developed a bold strategy to counter the dominant left-wing perspective in colleges. He challenged his political opponents to "prove him wrong" during open debates on academic campuses. During such an event at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah, a bullet brutally interrupted the dialogue.

This shocking assassination highlights the deep divisions in our society, and the hatred and lust for violence displayed by large numbers of Americans, most appallingly by educators.

Some of them are paying a price for their comments. Democrats have suddenly become the party of free speech, proposing the NOPE (No Political Enemies) Act, which would make it easier for citizens to sue government and recover attorney fees if federal officials abused their power to silence critics—too late for the pandemic. How ironic coming from the party of microaggression, deplatforming, social media censorship, hate speech, and cancel culture, writes Jeff Childers (tinyurl.com/5fswp2mf).

Charlie was not merely a political activist. He was an evangelist for Christ. After his death, many reconsidered their rejection of Christianity, bought a Bible, or went to church. Such personal turning points have occurred before. For many who took his challenge to "Prove Me Wrong," years of leftist, anti-Christian, anti-American indoctrination have been nullified. Instead of proving him wrong, some interlocutors saw the light of righteousness.

As usual after a shooting, leftist pundits looked for a "right-wing extremist" inspired by "hateful right-wing rhetoric" that should be immediately censored.

Prosecutors appear to be preparing to argue that the suspect, Tyler Robinson, killed Charlie because he disagreed with Kirk’s "anti-trans rhetoric." Robinson lives with a male roommate, who was said to be "transitioning." Bizarre engravings on Robinson’s bullets might be "anti-fascist" or pro-LGBTQ—or an in-group joke by online video gamers (https://tinyurl.com/ywa565m7).
