On September 10, 2025, conservative activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated during a campus Q&A event at Utah Valley University. Shot in the neck from 100-200 yards away while conducting his signature "Prove Me Wrong" debate format, the 31-year-old Turning Point USA founder died hours later. The shooting occurred during a heated immigration policy exchange, sending hundreds of students into panic. Kirk's deliberately accessible, confrontational activism style - featuring minimal security and direct student engagement - made him vulnerable to attack. His assassination represents the tragic escalation of political violence on college campuses and removes a key voice from conservative youth politics during Trump's presidency.
