A Texas Politician's Bold Statement About a Young Conservative Leader

A Texas congressman made a striking comment about a young conservative activist. He said that if the activist had lived during the time of Jesus, he would have been his 13th disciple. This activist, Charlie Kirk, was known for his strong faith and his work in politics. He was only 31 years old when he was tragically killed. Kirk was the founder of Turning Point USA, a group that got young evangelical Christians interested in politics. He used social media, podcasts, and campus events to reach out to them. His work helped energize young Republicans and supported former President Donald Trump's 2024 campaign.The congressman, Troy Nehls, made his comment during a hearing with FBI Director Kash Patel. He praised Kirk's faith and family, calling him a remarkable and honorable man. He said that Kirk's life was cut short by an assassin's bullet. This statement has sparked a lot of discussion. Some people agree with the congressman's view of Kirk. Others think it's a bit too much. It's important to remember that Kirk's work had a big impact on young conservatives.
