Lettsch told the audience that she was fired after five years with the company. TP America. She said the decision stemmed from controversy over internal reports about attitudes toward senior leaders.
She detailed that an Uber driver told a TPUSA executive that his daughter’s friend Aubrey Laitsch had criticized him Erica Kirk and the direction of the organization.
“I hear this organization is going downhill. There’s no real direction and no one likes Erica,” the Uber driver apparently told the TPUSA executive.
Lettsch has denied the accusations.
“I was a little surprised because, number one, I wasn’t really friends with anyone in high school, and a lot of that had to do with my political beliefs,” Lettsch said.
Lettsch said she has known Kirk since 2013, adding that the narrative did not fit with her feelings about Kirk at the time. She added that they competed in beauty pageants at the same time.

Lettsch also said she believed she was fired because she questioned the story of Kirk’s assassination.
“I just had a gut feeling that I was being terminated from Turning Point because I had questions about what happened to my role model and CEO, Charlie Kirk, on the day he was assassinated,” she said.
She said she was exercising her free speech by posting the video and sharing her experience “as an American citizen.”
“I have a lot of concerns and a lot of questions about what happened that day and the events leading up to that day,” Lettsch said.
She criticized the organization, saying: “You can’t question the narrative and the work of Turning Point. That’s how I feel. That’s how other people I’ve spoken to feel. It goes against everything Charlie has ever stood for.”
