In an exclusive report for The Grayzone published on Thursday, Max Blumenthal revealed the details of leaked documents revealing the relationship of TPUSA (Turning Point USA), the organization founded by the late Charlie Kirk, and the government of Israel.
“One year after Charlie Kirk’s killing, The Charlie Kirk Show is distributed by a federally registered agent of Israel and his widow, Erika, has reversed his critical positions on the US-Israeli special relationship,” Blumenthal writes.
Indeed, eight days after Kirk’s assassination, former Trump staffer Brad Parscale registered as a foreign agent for Israel, which had implications for The Charlie Kirk Show, Kirk’s podcast.
“The deal meant that the Charlie Kirk Show, which had been distributed by the Salem Media Network since 2020, was placed under the control of a foreign agent for Israel, with Parscale assuming a role as Salem’s Chief Strategy Officer. According to the terms of the contract, Parscale’s Clock Tower would ‘integrate its pro-Israel messaging into Salem Media Network properties,’” a separate report from The Grayzone reads.
Blumenthal’s latest piece continues: “A leaked contract obtained by The Grayzone reveals that TPUSA entered into an agreement with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews (IFCJ) to sponsor a series of ostensibly Christian faith-based summits between 2025 and 2027. Signed on May 16, 2025, the contract committed IFCJ to pay $700,000 to TPUSA over two years. In exchange, the group was to receive a series of promotional benefits including main stage speaking slots for its President, Yael Eckstein, and the distribution of pro-Israel ‘activism kits’ to over 200 college campuses.”
Blumenthal writes that the IFCJ presents itself as a charity organization meant to help Jews suffering from poverty and anti-semitism, but that in reality, “it is a fundraising behemoth which is currently on a spending spree, plowing millions into American conservative media while partnering closely with the Israeli government to spread Zionist propaganda.”
IFCJ President Yael Eckstein has made public comments referring to the organizations with the government of Israel. “We’re a non-governmental organization, but we effectively distribute the aid so well that the government of Israel asks the Fellowship to build projects for them during times of emergency,” she said.

“The IFCJ’s contract with TPUSA was inked in the midst of a severe crisis at the house that Charlie built,” Blumenthal’s report continues.
“At the time, Kirk was publicly anguishing over the increasingly onerous demands of those he described as Jewish ‘stakeholders,’ who were threatening to pull their support for TPUSA unless he stopped providing space at his events to conservative critics of Israel like Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly.”
The Grayzone mentioned a previous report about TPUSA donor Robert Shillman who announced that he withdrew $2 million of support from the organization just four days before Kirk’s death and “denounced Kirk’s criticisms of Israel.”
In a video commenting on Blumenthal’s report, Cenk Uygar recalled text messages written by Charlie during that time that were released after his death.
“Charlie said at the time, ‘Just lost another huge Jewish donor, $2 million a year because we won’t cancel Tucker. I’m thinking of inviting Candace,’” referring to Candace Owens, who had already drawn the ire of pro-Israel voices for her public statements regarding genocide in Gaza.
“So he did not like it,” Uygar continued. “He went on to say further that ‘Jewish donors were playing into all the stereotypes.’ I’m quoting Charlie Kirk, and said they were pushing him to ‘leave the pro-Israel cause.’”
“‘I cannot and will not be bullied like this,’” another text written by Charlie read.
Around the same time, Kirk had rejected an invitation from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to visit Israel, allegedly declined to host the prime minister on his own podcast while the politician made a media blitz with a number of conservative influencers in the United States throughout July and August 2025, and also “rejected a separate offer of Israel-directed donations to TPUSA” according to The Grayzone.
The IFCJ is responsible for activities like placing Israeli flags on the grounds of churches throughout the United States. It also has paid partnerships with various media groups like The Daily Wire, Fox News, Newsmax, the Jerusalem Post, and the podcasts of Mark Levin and Senator Ted Cruz.
Uygar offered further commentary on TPUSA’s relationship with Israeli-aligned organizations:
“But whatever you think happened to Charlie, put that aside. [TPUSA was] paid to be pro-Israel.
Charlie Kirk is telling you that. He told you that when he was alive. And now you see another story about how they’re paid to be pro- Israel. And now that Charlie’s out of the way, they’re back to 100% propaganda for that foreign government. And guys, if you think it’s only TPUSA, you have a lot of waking up to do.”
“So many organizations in this country are financed by radical Zionists who want all of them to do propaganda for Israel. You think it’s a coincidence that all of our politicians and our media weirdly declare, I am a proud Zionist? Zionism is Israeli nationalism.”
“It would be as if all of our politicians came out at once were like, I am a Bolivian nationalist. I am a Bolivian nationalist. And then you have these giant media organizations funded $500 million by Bolivian nationalists.”
“They are trying to manipulate America, not Jewish people. Max Blumenthal is Jewish, who’s reporting on this, okay? But radical Zionists who want us to serve their beloved Israel have bought off a lot of our media, a lot of our organizations, a ton of our think tanks and certainly our government officials.”
“And almost all those people in Washington and New York that are in power work for Israel. They do not work for us, and their job is to deceive you so that you don’t mind when Israel takes hundreds of billions of dollars from us and makes us go into their wars that cost us American lives and trillions of dollars.”
