The conservative youth group Turning Point USA deleted a tweet mocking protective masks after its cofounder Bill Montgomery died at 80 of complications related to COVID-19.
Two friends of Montgomery confirmed his death to Politico on Wednesday. In a tweet on Tuesday evening, Charlie Kirk, the group's chairman, paid tribute to him, describing him as an "American hero."
"He touched the lives of thousands of young Americans and I will miss him greatly," Kirk wrote.
