Since Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk was assassinated earlier this month, his organization, seeking free speech, civilized dialogue and even spiritual revival on America’s campuses, has been bombarded with thousands of requests for launching additional chapters.

Make that tens of thousands.

But now both local police and the state attorney general have begun investigating a situation in Harris County, Texas, where Stratford High students were working to begin a group, and local parents opposed to the concepts espoused by TPUSA allegedly doxed those students, releasing their private information, which in Texas is a violation of the law.

Attorney General Ken Paxton, notified of the situation, said, “These are sick individuals. My office will review these messages for any violations of the law. The radical leftist culture of suppression must be totally defeated. We are not backing down, and we will not be silenced.”

The Harris County part of the nationwide organization called Moms for Liberty had caught wind of the secret agenda against TPUSA and wrote online: “Stratford HS TEENS forming a TPUSA Club America were DOXXED by ADULTS sharing students’ internal GroupMe content in a ‘BE THE CHANGE’ private FB group, urging 730 members, operating in secrecy, to also intimidate teacher sponsors. REPREHENSIBLE. These are KIDS!”

Local police also said they were investigating.

A report at Lifezette explained, “One post, circulated on social media, urged Stratford parents to contact teachers rumored to be sponsoring the club.”

That message said, “Stratford Parents – I have an urgent request! Please please please send emails to two teachers who are rumored to have agreed to sponsoring a club that will sow division and hate among our students. … This is dangerous territory, and it would help if those teachers knew that their consideration was not appreciated by the remainder of the student body.”

The report said then the messaging publicly cited individuals allegedly linked to the effort, “including Denise Bell, who was described as ‘pushing for Stratford students to start a Turning Point USA club at the school.’ It also cited Gulf Coast Representative Javon Evans of ‘Club America,’ the TPUSA-affiliated student organization.”

The report explained, “The online campaign went further, circulating a series of claims about TPUSA and its founder. Among them were accusations that the organization runs a ‘Professor Watchlist’ to target teachers, that teachers sponsoring a TPUSA club would be making a political statement, and that TPUSA has framed minorities and immigrants as ‘existential threats.'”

The online gossip also “suggested the assassination of Charlie Kirk was connected to ‘far-right rivalry,’ despite police statements identifying the suspected shooter, Tyler Robinson, and his ideological motivations.”

Even the suspect’s family members have confirmed he was radicalized into leftist ideology recently, including the transgender agenda and more.
