Massive crowds line up in the rain at Ole Miss for Turning Point USA event with VP Vance, Erika Kirk

Turning Point USA's national tour honors Charlie Kirk's legacy, drawing 2,000 attendees at Ole Miss, with Erika Kirk and VP JD Vance leading the event.

  • On Wednesday, October 29, 2025 Vice President JD Vance and Erika Kirk led a Turning Point USA event at The Pavilion at Ole Miss, part of TPUSA's campus tour.
  • After Charlie Kirk's death last month, TPUSA board unanimously transitioned leadership to Erika Kirk, who acknowledged it had been seven weeks since her husband's assassination.
  • Hundreds of University of Mississippi students lined up early in the rain, and doors opened at 3 p.m. CT with TSA-style screening for the free event at The Pavilion at Ole Miss.
  • Erika Kirk told attendees, `I could just hear Charlie in my heart. I could just hear him say, go reclaim that territory, babe. Go to the battles that God's love conquers. And that's why I'm here today. I'm here because this moment, it can either be your breaking point or your wake up call, essentially your turning point,' Kirk said, as Vance urged focusing on U.S. priorities during a student Q&A.
  • The full event will stream on Fox Nation and a limited-edition documentary will premiere on November 7, 2025, as TPUSA continues its national tour.
