A San Antonio man has been arrested for allegedly threatening to kill Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk at one of the group’s events in the city next week.

Getting into it: Police confirmed the arrest of 26-year-old Jacob Wenske, who faces two felony counts of making a terroristic threat causing public fear and is being held on a combined $120,000 bond. According to an arrest affidavit, Wenske replied to an April Facebook post promoting the TPUSA Women’s Leadership Summit by writing, “I know exactly where to bomb,” and added in the same thread, “I can’t wait to be the valet for her escort.”

Investigators also linked him to a January email sent to the group that read, “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.”

What made authorities treat the threats as credible rather than idle was Wenske’s background: investigators noted he used to work valet parking gigs at hotels and event venues, giving the “valet” comment a more sinister edge. A review of his Facebook account, they said, also showed “ongoing violent hostility” toward people connected to Turning Point, and they linked him to the account using his phone number, IP address, and email.

Turning Point USA thanked the San Antonio Police Department and the FBI for the “rapid response and arrest,” adding, “We refuse to let threats silence us.”

TPUSA noted that the event itself is still going forward, with over 2,500 women expected to attend. It will now have heightened security that includes extra officers, private guards, and bomb-sniffing dogs.

This all comes as the danger has already forced her to scale back her public schedule, with Kirk pulling out of an April University of Georgia event with Vice President JD Vance after organizers warned of “very serious threats” to her safety. But critics like Candace Owens have claimed that Kirk canceled the event due to “low attendance.”
