His social media reaches over 100 million people per month and according to Axios, he is one of the "top 10 most engaged" Twitter handles in the world, behind only President Trump among conservatives. Charlie is the host of “The Charlie Kirk Show”—which regularly ranks among the top 15 news shows on Apple podcast charts—where Charlie delivers in-depth analysis of the modern political and cultural landscape, mixing in philosophy and history with his signature campus activism along with interviews of some of the most influential people of our time.

Jobob joins TPUSA as a Contributor after almost a decade working as a political consultant and communications director for various political campaigns around the country. In 2021, he decided to come out from behind the scenes of the political consulting world and landed a spot as the host of Daily Caller Live w/ Jobob on the Daily Caller platforms. His deadpan and often sarcastic take on the news of the day is an attempt to bring some levity and humor to an otherwise dismal news cycle. As a TPUSA Contributor, his goal is to help bring a widely missing comedic element to the conservative movement that he hopes can attract Americans who fall into his favorite cultural category; conservatives who just don’t know they’re conservatives yet.

When the Breitbart media empire was just starting, and still being operated out of late founder Andrew Breitbart's basement, Alex Marlow was the first hire. At just 35 years old, he is the editor-in-chief of Breitbart News, the longest-serving employee there -- and a link to the outlet's origins that some conservatives believe have been abandoned.
