Welcome to Part 2 of my TPUSA Fraud Playbook series, where I expose the machine, one operator at a time. Part 1 was Tyler Bowyer. Today, the worst PR guy in the game: Andrew Kolvet.

In forensic work, you don't only look for what's on the form, you look for what SHOULD be on it and isn't. Andrew Kolvet is the spokesman of a $100M+ network and the executive producer of its flagship show. He appears on ZERO tax returns, ever. Not one. That's not a gap in my research. That IS the finding.

1) Andrew Kolvet is the spokesman of a $100M+ network and executive producer of its flagship show. I searched every return, TPUSA, Turning Point Action, the Endowment, America's Turning Point, every year. He is not there. Not as an officer, not as a key employee, not as a contractor. Zero.
WHY BAD ACTORS DO EXACTLY THIS: the oldest move in the book is to bury the one name that touches the money AND the message. The intern is on the payroll. The man who tells millions what to think appears on not one federal form. That is what you pay lawyers for. You can't claw back what was never written down, and you can't audit a ghost.

2) So if the charity doesn't pay him, who does? The private companies. The Charlie Kirk Show, the charity's flagship media asset, is produced and monetized through Resolute Media, a for-profit LLC that Kolvet co-owns with Charlie Kirk. He also owns ATK Media outright. But none of these are reflected on the 990s.
WHY BAD ACTORS DO EXACTLY THIS: this is the whole game, and it's the textbook shape of private inurement: donors and the movement build the brand and the audience with charitable money; the commercial show built on that brand is run through a for-profit the insiders own; and the revenue lands with them, not the charity. You don't take the nonprofit's money, you let the nonprofit build the asset, then you own the company that harvests it. The donors fund the machine. The insiders keep the receipts. And because it all moves through private LLCs, none of it appears on a single charitable return. Private inurement is also how a non profit can lose its tax exempt status. Paying attention, Andrew?

3) He is TPUSA's spokesman and he privately owns ATK Media, a crisis-communications and reputation-management firm. ATK appears nowhere on any Turning Point return either.
WHY BAD ACTORS DO EXACTLY THIS: pick the lie. Either the spokesman's own company does the charity's PR for free, and no crisis-comms firm on earth works for exposure, or it's paid in a way built to never touch a form. A reputation firm run by the man who controls the reputation isn't a side business. It's the same job billed twice: once for the applause, once in the dark.

4) With Charlie Kirk and Tyler Bowyer, Kolvet owns a third of Resolute Media, a for-profit operating from a building on the Turning Point campus, sharing a registered agent with Superfeed, the voter-data firm Bowyer chairs.
WHY BAD ACTORS DO EXACTLY THIS: three officers owning one company outright is a mirror, not a vendor. And asked in writing, under penalty of perjury, whether it did business with a company its own officers control, the charity answered “No.” So either not one dollar ever moved, or that “No” is a false statement on a signed federal return. There is no third option.

5) He didn't apply for the job. He was placed by Johnnie Moore. Kolvet was VP of Communications at The Kairos Company, the PR firm founded by Johnnie Moore, which held TPUSA as a paid client. He moved from the vendor into the client and became its permanent voice and nobody asked questions. Johnnie Moore chaired the Israel-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation until it was shut down, and now is an ADL board member.
WHY BAD ACTORS DO EXACTLY THIS: this is how you make a paid relationship vanish. An outside PR contract is a line somebody can read. Hire that vendor's VP as your in-house voice and the same hand keeps writing the script but with no contract, no invoice, no filing, nothing. The influence didn't end, it just took off its name tag and moved into the building.

6) He appears on zero charitable returns, but he owns a Santa Barbara home bought in 2019 for $1,149,000, now worth an estimated $2.8 million, with roughly $2 million in equity and his PR company is registered at the address. Not weird at all.
WHY BAD ACTORS DO EXACTLY THIS: this is the net-worth problem, the oldest tool a fraud examiner owns. When a man's assets outrun his disclosed income, you go find the undisclosed source. He runs the message of a $100 million charity, it reports paying him nothing, and he holds seven figures of California real estate. You can't see the money on the 990. You can see it in the deed. Innocent men's assets match their pay stubs. This one has no pay stub at all.

7) Within days of Charlie Kirk's death, Kolvet took over the show, the network's single most valuable for-profit commercial asset.
WHY BAD ACTORS DO EXACTLY THIS: in every operation like this, the transition is when the vault sits unguarded. The founder is gone, the grief is loud, the cameras are on the funeral, and someone takes over the one asset that prints money. To be clear: the flag is who grabbed the revenue engine, not the death. This is follow the money, not Clue.

8) On January 24, 2025, Andrew Kolvet and his wife deeded their Santa Barbara home out of their own names and into the "Kolvet Family Trust."
WHY BAD ACTORS DO EXACTLY THIS: a family trust is legal, common, and boring on its own. Plenty of honest people use one to skip probate. But a trust does one mechanical thing: it takes your name off the thing you own. And in Kolvet's case, we have to look at the person and the timing. This is a man who appears on zero of four charities' returns, earns through private LLCs that never touch a 990, and as January 2025, the year Kirk was assassinated, holds his one visible asset behind a trust's name instead of his own. Every layer is legal. Together they do a single job, which is to make the person who runs the message of a $100 million movement nearly impossible to find on any public document. I am not saying putting a house in a trust is a crime, because it isn't. I am saying that when every record that should carry a man's name somehow doesn't, the absence stops being an accident and starts being a method.

The pattern: Kolvet is a ghost by design. He runs a nine-figure charity's narrative, owns the PR firm, owns a third of the media company, holds a piece of the show, and appears on not one page of any filing. Every dollar he makes off this movement moves through companies its own donors can't audit. That isn't sloppy paperwork, it's architecture, just a different architecture than Bowyer. But architecture still.

When the head of PR in a $100 million network leaves zero trace across four nonprofits and every filing year, an auditor doesn't shrug. They subpoena.
Andrew Kolvet's ATK Media, his third of Resolute, the for-profit that runs the charity's own flagship show, and that show's revenue need a forensic review. What ISN'T on the 990 is exactly what needs to be found.

Bowyer is still ahead on the fraud risk matrix. I agree with that. But both warrant a forensic audit. It's becoming pretty clear to me why Charlie Kirk asked for that "DOGE like assessment" 8 days before he was assassinated....

The problem isn’t that our Constitution is lacking; the problem is that the people chosen to uphold it are lacking.

These are desperate times, but a Convention to modify the Constitution is a desperate measure that absolves those responsible for our decline.

[Power to the People ☭🕊 @ProudSocialist]

These 50 GOP Senators just voted to merge the U.S. military with Israel’s military. Every single one of them should be tried for treason.

Massie: $5.5M raised. Average donor gave $100. His opposition: $32 million. Three billionaires, Secretary Hegseth on the ground, four presidential attacks in one day, all to silence the guy fighting for the Epstein files. Trump calls elections rigged. Look in the mirror. Go Massie.

I stand with Lauren Boebert.

I didn't leave MAGA.
MAGA left me.

Donald Trump has betrayed us all.

[Thomas Massie for Congress @MassieforKY]

Join me tomorrow night for my victory party!

To everyone who voted for me, donated to my campaign, volunteered your time, or kept me in your prayers, this night is for us to celebrate together.

The event begins at 6 PM at the Marriott Cincinnati Airport. Vote, then come see me!

If the Israeli casino lady can just buy the seats in your government- you don’t have a government- you belong to the Israeli casino lady.

[Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸 @FmrRepMTG]

There were only 4 of us, Republicans, that signed the discharge petition to force the vote to release the Epstein files.

Thomas Massie, Nancy Mace, Lauren Boebert, and myself.

Trump has come after us one by one ever since then.

The President told Speaker Johnson not to allow the vote to happen, but we courageously went against the President and refused to budge and overrode the Speaker to force the vote on record.

It was only when all Members of Congress had to vote on record did Republicans finally find their intestinal fortitude to do the right thing and vote YES to release the files.

Until then, they were absurdly obedient to the President who was doing everything in his reign of terror to hold them back.

Even now, all the files are still not released, and the Epstein class remains protected.

Wars are being waged, the markets are being manipulated, and the average American is being driven further into ruin while the Epstein class reigns and has yet to face any accountability.

I will never regret signing that discharge petition, refusing to back down, and resigning as I want nothing to do with a President and a Party that bows to the Epstein class.

[Carrie Prejean Boller @CarriePrejean1]

Thomas Massie’s race in Kentucky is bigger than Kentucky. It’s a turning point for the entire country.

This is a race between:
America vs AIPAC
Blue collared workers vs billionaires
America first vs Israel first
Patriots vs pedophiles
Justice for victims vs protection for the powerful
The American people vs the machine
American citizens vs Miriam Adelson
Good vs. evil
Christ vs satan.

Will America be governed by the American people or by billionaire Israeli donor money buying our politicians to fund their endless wars and to keep our politicians as their slaves.

Over $35 million poured into this race to try to take down Thomas Massie.

Why?

Because he refuses to sell his voice, his vote, and his loyalty to billionaire political groups and Israeli foreign influence.

He stands up against pedophiles, glyphosate, endless spending, foreign wars, and AIPAC controlling our politicians.

THIS IS THE MOST EXPENSIVE RACE IN CONGRESSIONAL HISTORY.

Will our politicians serve the citizens who elected them or the foreign money that buys them?

Massie is one of the only men willing to stand up and say America should belong to Americans again!

That’s why the machine wants him gone.

We must RE-ELECT @MassieforKY @RepThomasMassie

If you truly want to honor Charlie Kirk, donate to his favorite Congressman Thomas Massie’s campaign.

[Peter Girnus 🦅 @gothburz]

I have three monitors on my desk. The left one shows the order book. The middle one shows Truth Social. The right one shows the investigation queue.

On April 21st, the left screen moved first.

I am a Senior Surveillance Analyst at a commodities exchange. I have held this position for nineteen years. My job is to monitor trading activity for suspicious patterns and generate compliance reports. I am employee of the quarter. I have a mug.

At 19:54 GMT on April 21st, someone placed 4,260 sell orders on Brent crude futures. They did this during post-settlement. The window after the market closes when daily volume is typically in the dozens. Sometimes single digits. Sometimes I watch the screen and nothing happens for forty minutes and I think about whether my daughter is happy.

On April 21st, someone placed $430 million in directional bets in 120 seconds during that window. One hundred and twenty seconds. I timed it on my watch because the system clock rounds to the nearest minute and I have found, in nineteen years, that precision matters to no one but me.

At 20:10 GMT, the President posted on Truth Social that he was extending the Iran ceasefire.

Brent dropped from $100.91 to $96.83.

I flagged the trade. I flag a lot of trades. I want to tell you what happens to my flags.

My flags go into a system called TRACE. Trade Review and Compliance Evaluation. I did not name it. The system generates a report. The report goes to a committee. The committee has a name I am not allowed to share but I can tell you it meets quarterly and the conference room has a credenza with bottled water that is sparkling because someone once put still water in the room and a managing director sent an email about it that was longer than most of my surveillance reports.

The committee reviews my flags. The committee has reviewed all of my flags. Here is the complete record of actions taken on my flags in 2026:

Reviewed.

That's it. "Reviewed" is a status. In compliance, a status is the absence of an action that has been given a name so it looks like one.

Let me show you my flags.

March 9th. Someone bet millions on oil falling at 18:29 GMT. Forty-seven minutes later, a CBS reporter posted that the President said the Iran war was "very complete, pretty much." Oil dropped 25%. Forty-seven minutes. I flagged it.

March 23rd. Someone sold 5,100 lots of Brent and WTI crude futures between 10:49 and 10:50 GMT. Fourteen minutes later, the President posted on Truth Social about a "COMPLETE AND TOTAL RESOLUTION" to hostilities. Oil dropped 11%. Over 13,000 contracts traded in sixty seconds after the post. Fourteen minutes. I flagged it.

April 7th. Someone established a $950 million short position in oil futures at 19:45 GMT. Three hours later, the President declared a two-week ceasefire. Nine hundred and fifty million dollars. I flagged it.

April 17th. Someone placed $760 million in bearish bets twenty minutes before Iran's foreign minister confirmed the Strait of Hormuz would reopen. Seven hundred and sixty million. I flagged it.

April 21st. The $430 million. Fifteen minutes. I flagged it.

That is $2.1 billion in directional oil bets in April alone. Every one of them landed on the correct side of a presidential announcement. Every one of them was placed in a window so narrow you could measure it in bathroom breaks. I flagged every single one.

The CFTC chair told a Congressional committee that his organization has "zero tolerance" for fraud and insider trading. I wrote that quote on a Post-it note and stuck it to my right monitor. The one that shows the investigation queue. The investigation queue has not moved since March.

Zero tolerance. Zero staff. Zero budget. Zero prosecutions under the STOCK Act since it was signed in 2012.

Fourteen years. The law has existed for fourteen years and has been enforced zero times. In compliance, we call that a compliance rate of one hundred percent. No cases filed means no cases lost. You cannot fail an audit you never conduct. We call that excellence.

Last month the White House sent an internal email to staff. I was not on the distribution list but I have read reporting on it and I need you to sit with what I am about to say. The email instructed White House staff not to use insider information to place bets on prediction markets.

The White House had to send a memo telling its own employees not to insider-trade.

I want you to read that sentence again. Not because the instruction was unclear. Because the instruction was necessary. Because someone in the building looked at the same pattern I have been flagging for months on my three monitors and decided the appropriate response was an email.

The President's son sits on the advisory board of Kalshi. He is an investor in Polymarket. Both are prediction markets. Both saw accounts created days before U.S. military action.

One account. I cannot stop thinking about this account. It was called "Burdensome-Mix." It was created in December. On January 2nd, it placed $32,500 on Venezuela's president being removed from power. On January 3rd, Maduro was seized by U.S. special forces. Burdensome-Mix collected $436,000. Then it changed its username. Then it disappeared.

One account is a coincidence. But there were six.

Six accounts were created on Polymarket in February. All bet on U.S. strikes on Iran by the 28th. When the President confirmed the strikes, the six accounts collected $1.2 million between them. Five of the six never placed another bet. The sixth went on to correctly predict the ceasefire date and made another $163,000.

My surveillance system logged all of this. My system logs everything. My system does not have opinions and neither do I. I generate reports. The reports go to committees. The committees meet quarterly. Between meetings, the windows get shorter and the bets get larger.

March 9th: 47 minutes. March 23rd: 14 minutes. April 17th: 20 minutes. April 21st: 15 minutes.

The window is compressing. In March, you had time to make coffee between the trade and the announcement. By April, you had time to send a text. By summer, at this rate, the trade and the announcement will be the same event.

The spokesman said any implication that administration officials are engaged in insider trading is "baseless and irresponsible reporting."

Then the White House sent the email again.

I have been in compliance for nineteen years. I have seen insider trading run out of strip mall offices by men who could not spell "derivative." I have seen pump-and-dump schemes coordinated over WhatsApp by people who used their real names. I have seen a man try to manipulate soybean futures from a Panera Bread.

I have never seen $2.1 billion in perfectly timed trades across five presidential announcements in a single month go uninvestigated.

But I have also never seen a compliance system work this beautifully. Every trade flagged. Every report filed. Every committee briefed. Every quarterly meeting attended. Bottled water: sparkling. Minutes: distributed.

Zero prosecutions.

As long as the flags go up and the cases don't, my performance review says I am meeting expectations.

I am meeting expectations. The system is meeting expectations. The $2.1 billion is meeting expectations. The fourteen-year-old law with zero prosecutions is meeting expectations.

The left screen moves. The middle screen moves. The right screen stays perfectly, immaculately still.

In my field, we call this price discovery.
