Turning Point USA is facing a fresh wave of public scrutiny after alleged fundraising letters, signed by the organisation's COO and conservative activist Riley Gaines, began circulating online this week.
Researcher and podcaster @leahfiles posted photographs of the letters on X, alleging they were received in the current week, and questioned why an organisation that allegedly brings in over £67m ($85m) annually was soliciting small-dollar donations from college students. The letters invoke the September 2025 assassination of TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk and use language one social media user characterised as 'desperate,' including the claim that a student chapter will 'free your children and grandchildren from the Left.'
