Erika Kirk, Turning Point USA CEO and widow of Charlie Kirk, has experienced her share of violence, real or threatened.
According toKSAT-TVin San Antonio, authorities have arrested 26-year-old Jacob Wenske and charged him with two felony counts of making a terroristic threat causing public fear.
In an April social media post, Wenske allegedly threatened to kill Kirk and “every Christian nationalist” who attended her event.
The event in question, Turning Point USA’s three-day Women’s Leadership Summit, will take place June 5-7 at the San Antonio Marriott Rivercenter on the River Walk.
Wenske allegedly targeted the event.
“I know exactly where to bomb,” he said in a social media post, per his arrest warrant. Then, in a separate post, he added that he “can’t wait to be the valet for her escort.”
Meanwhile, the warrant alleged that Wenske issued a threat from an email account registered to him.
“Death toErika Kirkand every single speaker there!! America will live on without those scum on this earth. Every Christian nationalist shall perish in the bombing that will take place at every single Turning Point rally and event,” the suspect wrote.
Thursday on the social media platform X, Turning Point USA responded to the arrest.
“Turning Point USA takes all threats seriously and we work closely with law enforcement at all levels to respond to and resolve any threats. We are grateful to the San Antonio Police Department and theFBIfor their rapid response and arrest of the individual making these threats,” the organization wrote.
