"We need to have a Nuremberg-style trial for every gender-affirming clinic doctor."

April 2024
On immigration
"The Democrat party hates this country. They wanna see it collapse. They love it when America becomes less white." March 2024
"The great replacement strategy, under way in our southern border, is a strategy to replace white rural America with something different." March 2024
On gun violence
"I think it's worth it to have a cost of 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. It is rational."
Event organised by TPUSA Faith, the religious arm of Kirk's conservative group Turning Point USA, April 2023
On Islam
"We've been warning about the rise of Islam, to a great amount of backlash. We don't care, that's what we do here. We said Islam is not compatible with western civilisation." June 2025
On debate
"When people stop talking, that's when you get violence. That's when civil war happens, because you start to think the other side is so evil."
Kirk discussing his work in an undated clip that circulated on X after his killing Chris Stein
