Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson was in Bloomington for an event, Tuesday night, hosted by the Indiana University chapter of Turning Point USA.

Conservative activist and TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk was scheduled to speak at IU for the Oct. 21. campus event as part of his American Comeback Tour. Kirk was shot and killed at his event at Utah Valley University on Sept. 10.

Carlson is one of several conservative speakers planned to headline TPUSA events moving forward. Included in the rotation are media personalities Megyn Kelly, Glenn Beck, and Michael Knowles, and politicians like U.S. Senator Mike Lee (R-Utah), Gov. Spencer Cox (R-Utah), and Republican candidate for Ohio governor Vivek Ramaswamy. Charlie Kirk’s widow Erika Kirk said after her husband’s assassination that the tour would continue.

“Each stop is a chance to honor Charlie’s mission and keep the fight alive,” a statement from the Turning Point USA website said. “Free speech is only free if we use our voices.”

Indiana Gov. Mike Braun was also expected to speak at the event in Bloomington.
