Kirk himself had planned to attend the event, which is part of a nationwide tour. Those in attendance of the event heard speeches from conservative commentator Megyn Kelly and Gov. Glenn Youngkin.
"Each one of you is the light. A light that shines in the corner of the room, a light that shines brightly on evil. A light that chases out darkness. That is each and every one of you," Youngkin said.
Youngkin also announced during the event that he would be donating $100,000 to Turning Point USA, however, he did not elaborate whether or not that would be a personal donation.
We reached out to Youngkin's office for clarification, and we are waiting to hear back.
