Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA and firebrand MAGA commentator, will guest co-host Fox & Friends Weekend for the first time on Saturday and Sunday.

Fox News confirmed to Mediaite that Kirk would guest co-host alongside Rachel Campos-Duffy and Charlie Hurt, as first reported by Axios.

Kirk, a prominent pro-Trump podcaster, founded Turning Point USA in 2012 as a conservative student organization when he was just 18. Turning Point has since evolved into an advocacy organization that has mobilized Republican voters across the country to rally behind President Donald Trump, launching Kirk as a heavyweight in conservative political circles.

The opportunity comes just one week after Kirk’s group hosted a raucous Student Action Summit in Florida, where MAGA speakers fumed over Attorney General Pam Bondi’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

Backlash was sparked by a Justice Department memo concluding that the disgraced financier died by suicide and that no fabled blackmail “client list” existed.

Following the weekend’s summit, Kirk declared on his podcast he was “done talking about Epstein” after an apparent call from Trump himself.

“Ball’s in their court,” Kirk said Monday, referring to FBI director Kash Patel and Bondi. “I’m gonna trust my friends in the administration.”
