Thousands of supporters gathered Tuesday night to honour Charlie Kirk as Turning Point USA’s college tour returned to Utah, marking the group’s first stop in the state since its founder’s assassination earlier this month.

The event took place at Utah State University in Logan, roughly two hours north of Utah Valley University, where Kirk was fatally shot on September 10 while addressing a crowd.

Conservative podcast host Alex Clark, who opened the event, told attendees, “If you are expecting a funeral, if you came to mourn the death of America, the death of masculinity and femininity, of faith, of truth, then you are at the wrong event. It’s not over. It is not even close."

“I’m not here to eulogize Charlie Kirk," she added, but rather to “pass the torch on to every single one of you."
