Grayzone publishes a May 2025 contract with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews. After Kirk’s death, the group says his organization buried the criticism and kept the sponsorship
A published sponsorship agreement shows the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews committed $700,000 to Turning Point USA for a multi-year campaign that delivered Israeli activism directly into the conservative youth movement.
The Grayzone reported that it obtained the 2025–2027 document, dated May 16, 2025. It names TPUSA and IFCJ as the parties and schedules payments of $300,000 in 2025, then $200,000 in both 2026 and 2027.
The contract purchased more than a logo. It calls for a 2025–2027 Israel Activism Kit campaign, with kits sent to more than 200 campuses. It also granted IFCJ video slots, main-stage speaking time, booths, branding, text and email promotion, and sponsor access across TPUSA student and faith events.
The document records the contractual commitment. It does not, by itself, show bank transfers clearing the full $700,000.
The relationship is not a one-off allegation. TPUSA Faith’s current Make Heaven Crowded Tour lists IFCJ as a sponsor. IFCJ also confirmed that its president, Yael Eckstein, spoke at TPUSA’s 2026 Women’s Summit.
IFCJ openly works with Israeli state institutions. The Israeli government’s Foreign Ministry announced that its Government Press Office and ministry co-hosted a 2025 Christian Media Summit with IFCJ, a conference devoted in part to Israeli public diplomacy.
The timing gave the deal political weight. The Grayzone tied the May 2025 agreement to Charlie Kirk’s increasingly public criticism of pressure from pro-Israel donors. Kirk discussed that pressure on an August 2025 Megyn Kelly program. The outlet reported that TPUSA buried that criticism after Kirk’s death while preserving IFCJ sponsorship.
IFCJ acknowledged to The Grayzone that it had sponsored TPUSA events but declined questions about the contract. TPUSA did not respond to the outlet’s request for comment.
The written record exposes a simple fact: an organization partnered with Israel’s government paid for privileged access to an American conservative movement’s pastors, students, stages, and mailing lists.
