John —
As you might have heard, last week I received a twitter DM from Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, a right-wing college organization, challenging me to a debate.
I will not humor him. I will not humor a man who encouraged the January 6th insurrection. I will not humor a man who promotes anti-vaccine ideas on his very large platform. I will not humor a man who is clearly ill-intentioned.
The messages that Charlie Kirk promotes on his platform are truly damaging -- to democracy, to public health, and to the United States. Will you chip in $5 today to help us stand up to Republicans like Charlie in California and across the country?
Charlie doesn’t have any good intentions in asking me to debate. My going on his show would only increase his audience and grow his platform. I will not aid in platforming an insurrectionist.
Let's keep up the fight,
— Eric
