Join us at True Texas Project this month as one of our long-time activists and friends, Carlos Turcios, takes the mic. Carlos is a Tarrant County native, conservative activist, and former investigative journalist who has been on the front lines against the woke Left and DEI ideology since the age of 15. Now he works as the Tarrant County Director at For Liberty and Justice. This month he is joining us to talk about the tactics and action plans we need to implement in order to defeat unconstitutional DEI practices. These policies run deeper than most of us realize, and are impacting many schools, local governments, corporate workplaces, and more. It's evident that nothing is going to change unless WE step up and demand it, so come find out how we can do just that.Speaker: Carlos Turcios

About Carlos Turcios:
Tarrant County For Liberty & Justice Director
Tarrant County GOP Executive Committee member
Carlos Turcios is a Tarrant County native, conservative activist, and former investigative journalist who has been on the front lines against the woke Left and DEI ideology since the age of 15. In 2021, he helped lead parents, students, and community activists in a high-profile fight against the Fort Worth ISD Racial Equity Department, organizing major protests that culminated in the dismantling of the department and the resignation of its director, the superintendent, and one of the district’s most radical school board members. His activism drew national attention and was reported by outlets including the Daily Mail, Fox News, and the New York Post.
Following that victory, Turcios expanded his advocacy to county commissioners courts, city councils, and local governments across North Texas. In 2024, he became a central figure in a First Amendment battle after a conservative de-transitioner event he organized was shut down by the City of Fort Worth. The move sparked widespread backlash, and later that year the city ended its anti-discrimination policy for community centers, marking a major free speech victory.
Turcios served as the Turning Point USA chapter president at the University of Texas at Arlington beginning in 2023. He graduated from UTA that same year with a bachelor’s degree in political science and married his college sweetheart in 2024.
As a former investigative journalist for the Dallas express, Turcios broke stories that reached national and international audiences, including exposing a woke dress code at 24 Hour Fitness, inappropriate exhibits involving minors at the Modern Art Museum, and a bombshell December 2024 report revealing a sitting congresswoman living in a dementia senior care facility. His reporting was cited and covered by outlets such as the New York Post, New York Times, CNN, Infowars, the Daily Mail, and the Daily Wire.
Today, Carlos Turcios serves as the Tarrant County Director for For Liberty & Justice, where he works alongside Pastor Nate Schatzline to mobilize the Church, wake up cities, and take a stand for liberty and justice.
