🔥 Erika Kirk Commands the Stage at AmericaFest 2025 — Stats, Humor, and a Subtle Swipe at Candace Owens! 🇺🇸✨
At AmericaFest 2025, Erika Kirk delivered a high-energy, stats-packed keynote that had the audience laughing, cheering, and taking notice. With a mix of pride, humor, and subtle digs at her critics, Kirk highlighted the growth and reach of Turning Point USA under her leadership.
“So, Charlie loved sharing AmFest stats, so let’s do a quick rundown — I know he’d want everyone here to hear this,” Kirk began. “Eighty percent of our attendees today have never been to a TPUSA event before. So, if this is your first time — welcome home! Turning Point USA is your home, and we are thrilled you’re here.”
She kept the momentum going, celebrating the demographic diversity of the event: one-third of attendees are students, and 54% are women. “Yeah! We love our students! Okay! We see you ladies, you’re rocking it!” she added, drawing applause and cheers.
Kirk then showcased the event’s scale: 40 breakout sessions, 178 sponsors, representation from all 50 U.S. states, plus 25 countries — Puerto Rico included. With her trademark humor, she quipped about Egypt: “Don’t worry, guys, Egypt isn’t on the list… oh, funny enough, I say ‘Egypt’ and my iPad turns on. That’s tech for you!”
The audience erupted in laughter, but the message was clear: TPUSA is growing, inclusive, and unapologetically bold. Kirk’s speech reinforced the organization’s mission, combining transparency, celebration, and a touch of pointed commentary for those watching closely.
AmericaFest 2025 wasn’t just a conference — it was a statement.
