This post got me thinking… just what in the world *has* TPUSA been doing with all that money they’re raking in.

So I combed through the 2026 cycle FEC filings for the Turning Point PAC. And OFC the whole thing is weird and shady and makes no sense whatsoever if you assume the people behind the filings are acting in good faith… which I never do.

The treasurer for Turning Point PAC is currently a TPUSA employee named Joshua Parker. Parker assumed this position in April after longtime PAC treasurer Jeff Webb died in a freak pickleball accident.

Jeff Webb was the CEO of Varsity Brands, you know, the cheerleading empire and he was worth somewhere between $100 million and $1 billion when he died (turns out that monopolizing an entire kids sport and then jacking the prices through the roof year after year can be quite lucrative) So why he was running around in his late 70s playing treasurer for TPUSA’s federal PAC is still a mystery to me but regardless he’s no longer with us so I won’t be holding my breath waiting for answers on these ridiculous charges…

Most notable in these filings is the credit card merchant fees.

I’m just the first 4 months of 2026 Turning Point PAC has reported $3.068 million in receipts. They’ve spent 56% of that ($1.732 million) on “Credit Card Merchant Fees” with Anedot.

This is a considerable increase from the first year of this cycle, 2025, when they pulled in $2.023 million total and spent 23% of that ($456k) on CC merchant fees with Anedot.

Both of these figures are outrageous and very hard to believe, especially when broken down by month and compared to total monthly expenditures.

Turning Point PAC spent more on CC merchant fees in the first 2 months of this year than they did in the entire 2024 election cycle.

Their next largest vendor was a company many of you will be familiar with: 1TEN LLC

This is the company owned by Tyler Bowyer’s buddy Jake Hoffman.

1TEN LLC has received $606,102 in the 2026 cycle… most of it for services rendered for Andy Biggs who is running for Arizona governor.

There’s also this French email service they are paying $1,510/month for.

There’s only one other committee who has ever filed a receipt with the FEC using this company, a Democrat who ran for Senste in Florida in 2020, and he was paying $38.95/month for their service.

Charlie Kirk & The NAR

Part 3: Where did these people come from?

Alright friends it’s been a while so let’s dive back in and get to the bottom of where in the world did these people come from and how in the heck did they get so much power?

It took me a long time to finally admit we had to go back to the very beginning. I know this is the boring part but stick with me and I'll try to make it as painless as possible. You'll be glad you have this background when we get to the good stuff starting in the 70s.

First things first, some words you ought to know

This entire diatribe is just one long string of conflations, exaggerations and flat out lies.

Like… literally the whole thing.

Well, except the Nobel prize part, whoopdee doo.

Let’s dissect 🧵

Qatar didn’t “send” American colleges $6.5 billion dollars.

Qatar signed contracts with American universities- mostly centered on those universities opening up satellite schools IN Qatar.

Less than 2.5% of all the money spent by Qatar on US colleges was classified as a gift.

Israel has never GIVEN America anything. Ever.

That Trophy system on the Abrams tank?

That was a $193 million contract awarded to Rafael Systems- an Israeli military contractor.

Do you know where your pastor is this week?

If not, there’s a good chance he (or she) is on an all expenses paid tour of Israel- courtesy of the Israeli government- in order to become an “Ambassador for Israel.”

🧵

This is part of Israel’s latest plan to win back young people: they are going to woo over their pastors and get them disseminate Israeli government propaganda from the pulpit.

The schedule:

The NAR & Charlie Kirk

Part II: The prophet, the Donald & the cabana boy

Back in early 2016 there were very few religious leaders who wanted anything to do with Donald Trump. Ted Cruz was their boy and they regularly declared Trump supporters to be “not real Christians.”

However there was one group of holy rollers who threw in early with the Donald and that was the televangelists.

A largely ignored segment of the Christian Right, prosperity preachers and charismatics pastors were actually a perfect fit for Trump.

There were even some who claimed Trump’s presidency had been prophesized a decade earlier.

While most people roll their eyes at stuff like this, Donald Trump shrugged his shoulders and said “meh, why not? Welcome to the team!”

The New Apostolic Reformation & Charlie Kirk

Part I: What is NAR?

The New Apostolic Reformation, aka NAR, is a movement in evangelical churches started by C. Peter Wagner in the late 90s.

NAR is not a denomination and it does not have any set or elected leaders or *official* ideology that defines it.

Rather NAR is a hodgepodge of beliefs, rituals and practices pulled from various traditions within mainstream charismatic and Pentecostal churches.

The core belief posited by Wagner was the Christians must engage in spiritual warfare to bring about Christian dominion over all aspects of society.

When this is accomplished, the road will be paved for Christ to return.
