Why Fans Think Charlie Kirk Predicted His Tragic Shooting 11 Years Ago: 'The Power Of Manifesting'

Fans have dug up an 11-year-old tweet from the late Charlie Kirk, where he seemingly predicted his own shooting. 

The American right-wing political activist was tragically murdered on September 10 during a speaking engagement on the Utah Valley campus. 

Kirk was popular for being a Donald Trump supporter and an avid supporter of gun use in America. 

On June 23, 2014, Kirk posted a tweet that read, “Did I just get shot by an AR-15? Feels like it.” It is, however, unclear the context in which he shared it.

Following his tragic death, fans have uncovered the tweet and are sharing various theories suggesting that it may have been an eerie prediction of his end. 

One fan wrote, “The way the universe hands us premonitions of the future needs to be studied…” and another added, “The power of manifesting.”

This fan tweeted, “How do you manifest your own potential death? The power of the tongue is dangerous.”  Yet another concurred, writing, “Life and death is in the power of the tongue.” Someone wrote that Kirk’s “digital footprint” is “nastyyy,” while someone else asked, “How did he know?” 

The Blast reported that Kirk was only 20 minutes into his presentation when he was shot. A video circulating on social media showed the chilling moment he collapsed mid-sentence while under a tent. 

As soon as the shot rang out, chaos erupted, and several attendees fled the scene. According to reports, the gunshots were fired from the top of a campus building from about 200 yards away.

Shortly after, a suspect was taken into custody, and FBI Director Kash Patel gave a report on the unfolding situation, saying that his agency is “closely monitoring" it. 

Still speaking on the incident, Patel condemned the shooter’s actions, saying that the FBI is in “full support” of the ongoing investigation. He also extended his heartfelt condolences to Kirk, his loved ones, and everyone affected by the shooting. 

Following the shooting, several government officials spoke up, condemning the incident. Senator Mike Lee shared a social media post, asking people to pray for Kirk and other students who attended the gathering. 

Gavin Newsom also posted about the attack, calling it “disgusting, vile, and reprehensible.” He further added that Americans ought to reject political violence in “EVERY” form. 

Kirk has always publicly aired his support for gun use in America. In 2023, he said that gun deaths were inevitable and necessary in order to keep the Second Amendment. 

“I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights. That is a prudent deal,” the late activist said. 

“So we need to be very clear that you're not going to get gun deaths to zero. It will not happen,” he added. He also stated that having armed citizenry is only a part of liberty, which comes at a price. 

Kirk argued that gun deaths could be reduced by having more present fathers in homes and more guards in front of schools. He further urged people to have an “honest and clear reductionist view of gun violence,” not a utopian one. 

Following the deceased’s unsettling end, an article by the feminist site Jezebel, claimed to have asked witches on Etsy to place a curse on the late founder of Turning Point USA. 

The article, titled “We Paid Some Etsy Witches to Curse Charlie Kirk,” expressed a deep dislike for Kirk, who had an “obsession with telling women what to do."

According to The Blast, the author made several insulting remarks about the father of two. The author also then detailed how they headed to Etsy and requested a hex to be put on Kirk. 

Following the shooting, President Donald Trump shared a social media post confirming that Kirk had passed away after sustaining a gunshot wound to the neck.

He praised the late activist for understanding America, writing that no one had the “Heart of the Youth” better than he did. 

Trump acknowledged that he “especially” loved and admired Kirk and sent his heartfelt condolences to his wife and family, as reported by The Blast.
