Summary

  • Lydia Taylor Davis said Antifa protesters surrounded her outside Turning Point USA's Women's Leadership Summit in San Antonio, shouting insults, coughing on her, blasting a siren in her face and throwing water.
  • Video from the confrontation showed one masked protester impersonating Charlie Kirk and saying, "I support assassinating fascists," while others mocked the conservative activist's Sept. 10, 2025 killing.
  • Davis said the group was harassing women entering and leaving the convention center and trying to disrupt the event, which she had approached with a microphone to question them.
  • The Students for Life spokeswoman said the threat environment around conservative activism has become serious enough that she now brings security guards and wears a bulletproof vest at events.
