The young conservative movement a year after Kirk's killing

Season 2026 Episode 186 | 6m 08s

Charlie Kirk's influence is still deeply felt at the Republicans' midterm convention. His killing a year ago reshaped the young conservative movement he built and left his friends and political allies with the task of carrying it forward. To discuss the future of Turning Point USA, Geoff Bennett spoke with Robert Draper, a New York Times Magazine reporter who profiled Kirk before his death.
