Released Kirk Messages About Ben Shapiro
What This Image Shows
A light-mode screenshot of a post from an account shown as AF Post, handle @AFpost, posted ten hours before capture, with an attached collage of photo snippets and message bubbles.
The post reads: "Released text messages show Charlie Kirk stating that Ben Shapiro tried to 'kill' his and Candace Owens' careers as they rose to prominence through Turning Point USA." The quoted messages read: "The ben thing involves me more than he wants to admit... He knows Jon Snow is stronger as the dragons fly higher... And he is sending his incestuous brother to go try and kill us," "His respect amongst movement fighters is quite low," and "He's making his entire show with Joe Rogan this weekend about worshipping celebrities." A caption panel in the collage reads "Campaign Against Charlie Kirk and Candace Owens - DANGEROUS."
The word "kill" here is plainly figurative, describing a reputational campaign inside a political movement rather than any physical threat, and nothing in the messages suggests otherwise. What the exchange documents is the depth of the factional conflict Charlie Kirk was in before September 10, 2025, and the authenticity of released private messages rests on whoever released them.
