@DerWouter Assume you saw this advertisement for Charlie Kirk& #39;s @TPUSA & #39;s big West Palm Beach gathering net month, https://www.tpusa.com/ ">https://www.tpusa.com/">...
Interesting. Turning Point USA founder, Charlie Kirk& #39;s father, Robert W. Kirk, was a project architectural manager on Trump Tower. The Kirks live in Illinois https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlie_Kirk_(conservative_activist)">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Char...
Charlie Kirk, 24, is a college dropout (fits w/current anti-education GOP thinking). He founded Turning Point USA in 7/12 w/$78k, reportedly provided by RW Christian bizman, Foster Friess.
In the year ended 6/30/14, Turning Point USA took in $444K yet Charlie Kirk only paid himself. $1.7k.
Like so many other RW orgs in & #39;15, Turning Point USA experienced a big jump in contributions, going from $78k to $444k to $2m in & #39;15.
Call me cynical but is Charlie Kirk really only taking $7k in salary when Turning Point USA is now paying out $487k in payroll expense?
William "Bill" Montgomery, the Lemont IL bizman who convinced Charlie Kirk to drop out of school & go into politics, is @TPUSA & #39;s treasurer & his firm, The Stapleton Group, prepares TP USA& #39;s 990s.
Since it& #39;s inception, Turning Point USA was located at 217 1/2 E Illinois St, Lemont IL. TP USA paid $0 rent i & #39;13, $4k in & #39;14 & $25k in & #39;15. I must be missing something bc this is what I got when I googled the address. #photo4">https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/217-E-Illinois-St_Lemont_IL_60439_M77246-69517 #photo4">https://www.realtor.com/realestat...
Oops! My bad. Here& #39;s the latest list of confirmed speakers for Turning Point USA& #39;s West Palm event & sponsors (of course, the Heritage Fdn is one).
While Turning Point USA& #39;s & #39;16 990 is overdue, we& #39;re unlikely to see it any time soon. Like so many other RW orgs, it has a problem filing 990s on a timely basis.
@DonaldJTrumpJr attended last year& #39;s Turning Point USA event in & #39;16. Assume he was already at Mar-A-Lago.
Just noticed Turning Point USA provides lodging for attendees at the West Palm event. I wonder where& #39;s it held.
Turning Point USA must be taken seriously! Justice Clarence Thomas& #39;s wife. Ginny Thomas, is an adviser. https://www.tpusa.com/aboutus/advisory-council/">https://www.tpusa.com/aboutus/a...
