Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk allegedly ordered police to bar Catholic conservative commentator Nick Fuentes from his event at Politicon on Sunday.
Fuentes is a fierce critic of Kirk’s and many of his fans have been politely asking Kirk a bunch of hard questions at his events recently with hilarious results.
The Turning Point USA leader appears to have finally hit his breaking point.
Just tried to enter Charlie Kirk’s event at Politicon and I was surrounded by probably a dozen police officers who told me I wasn’t allowed to enter the event, no justification given. Incredible. Will post the video below momentarily!

How can you claim to be a free speech organization and believe in the "free market of ideas" while barring certain individuals from events for their beliefs?

Inside the event, Kirk was lamenting the “death of free speech”:

That’s Conservatism, Inc. for you, ladies and gentlemen.
As I reported on Friday, Kirk’s TPUSA put on a “free speech” event last week where they had “conservative” YouTuber Hunter Avallone claim Big Tech targeting conservatives for censorship was a myth.
