A close friend who spoke with Charlie Kirk as the Turning Point USA Founder made his way to Utah told Fox News Digital that Kirk had “no fear” before his assassination on Wednesday.

Brilyn Hollyhand, a 19-year-old political commentator and friend of Kirk’s, was texting with Kirk before the father of two was shot and killed while speaking on his American Comeback Tour.

“He was super energetic and excited,” Hollyhand told Fox News Digital. “The comment [Kirk] made was like, this is going to be a big win, this is going to be the time that we keep Gen Z engaged in a non-election year.”
