‘Has A Pulse’: Glenn Beck Issues Unconfirmed Update On Charlie Kirk’s Condition

The Blaze’s Glenn Beck has issued a preliminary, though unconfirmed, update on the condition of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, who was shot at an event in Utah today.

Joining The Megyn Kelly Show, Beck, who is close with Kirk and has been for many years, said his sources have relayed that the conservative leader “has a pulse.”

“Are you hearing that from people who are in a position to know that Charlie is in, that he’s alive, and that he’s in critical?” Kelly asked. “Yes,” Beck responded through tears.

Shots were fired Wednesday afternoon at a speaking event headlined by Kirk at Utah Valley University.

Footage from the scene shows attendees running while at least one shot can be heard.

An additional angle appears to show that Kirk was indeed shot in the upper body or neck area while speaking at the packed event. He immediately stopped speaking after being hit. The shot appeared to have come from an elevated position, from what sounded like a rifle.

“At TPUSA event. I didn’t see Charlie after. An organizer closer to Charlie’s position said he was shot in the neck,” Andrew Piskadlo, who was in attendance at the event, posted on X. He added that the conversation was centered on the massive rise in violence from the transgender community when the shots rang out.

“Say a prayer for Charlie Kirk, a genuinely good guy and a young father,” Vice President JD Vance said in an X post.
