Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk predicted his own assassination in chilling text messages to friend and former colleague Candace Owens — years before he was assassinated in Utah.

Owens posted screengrabs of a text exchange from April 6, 2018 on her podcast in which the person she identifies as Kirk predicted he would be killed because of his work with Turning Point USA.

“If I tell you the true prophecy I know in my gut it’s really sad,” Kirk wrote, adding, “But I hope its wrong.”

“Anyway I am not sure if I will live to see the end of this revolution.”

“Since the beginning of TPUSA I knew in my gut that I might get wiped out at any time,” he wrote, adding, “I cannot explain it.”

“But I dream about it all the time. Like all the time.”

Kirk insisted he was not being dramatic or fearful with his prediction.

“Not really afraid of it but I’m just telling you what I know to be true,” he told Owens, who was the communications director for Turning Point USA from 2017-2019.

In other messages she said were from Kirk, he suggested that he was “like Moses” and would lead conservatives to the promised land, but die before seeing it himself.

“I might be Moses tho. I might not see this whole thing through lmao,” wrote Kirk, who was fatally shot through the neck in front of hundreds of fans during a Turning Point USA event on the campus of Utah Valley University Sept. 10.

Later on her Monday podcast, Owens issued a vague threat to unidentified people “who betrayed Charlie” to come clean.”

Owens and Kirk had a professional “break-up” after her “theories got just a little bit too down the rabbit holes,” Newsmax host and TPUSA member Eric Bolling told The Post in September.

TPUSA did not return a request for comment.
