In late December 2025, the conservative non-profit group Turning Point USA (TPUSA) held its yearly conference in Phoenix, Arizona. During the event, TPSUA CEO Erika Kirk, the wife of the organization's slain co-founder, Charlie Kirk, brought a special guest on stage — the rapper Nicki Minaj.
The viral appearance sparked intense discussion on platforms like X, with some fans expressing surprise about Minaj's appearance at a pointedly political event. Some detractors, however, didn't seem surprised. They claimed that Minaj's husband was a registered sex offender and often compared those actions to long-standing accusations of sexual misconduct brought against U.S. President Donald Trump.
