A 26-year-old Texas man has been charged with making a terroristic threat after authorities say he threatened to kill Erika Kirk and bomb an upcoming Turning Point USA event where the widow is scheduled to speak. 
The probe began after a local newspaper shared a Facebook post promoting TPUSA’s Women’s Leadership Summit, scheduled for June 5–7 at the San Antonio Marriott Rivercenter on the River Walk, according to <a href="https://www.ksat.com/news/ksat-investigates/2026/05/28/man-arrested-for-threats-to-kill-erika-kirk-ahead-of-turning-point-usa-event-in-san-antonio/">KSAT-TV</a>.
“I know exactly where to bomb,” the suspect, identified as Jacob Wenske, replied to the post, according to law enforcement.
Authorities say Wenske also wrote in the same thread, “I can’t wait to be the valet for her escort.”
In a subsequent email, Wenske escalated the threats, writing: “Death to Erika Kirk and every single speaker there!! America will live on without those scum on this earth. Every Christian nationalist shall perish in the bombing that will take place at every single Turning Point rally and event,” according to the arrest warrant.
Wenske was charged with a third-degree felony count of making a terroristic threat involving fear of serious bodily injury and public disruption.
Court records show Wenske’s bond was set at a combined $120,000, KSAT-TV reported.
In a statement to Fox News Digital, TPUSA spokesman Matt Shupe said the organization is treating the threats seriously.
“The safety of our attendees, speakers, and staff is always our top priority. All TPUSA events include enhanced, multi-layered security measures enforced by both private security and local police,” Shupe said. “We refuse to let threats silence us. We look forward to a successful and inspiring gathering June 5–7 in San Antonio for more than 2,500 women attending the Women’s Leadership Summit.”
Kirk has recently drawn attention to what she describes as a broader media and cultural climate fueling political violence, arguing it contributed to the circumstances surrounding the public assassination of her husband Charlie Kirk in September.
“Seems to me that nothing will ever be enough for the evil in this world. Our country has become unrecognizable,” <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/erika-kirk-blasts-media-radicalization-in-first-remarks-since-whcd-shooting">Kirk said</a> following the recent shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. “These people have perverted the truth to the point that they motivated the murder of my husband.”
