What to expect as Trump headlines Turning Point Action’s ‘Build the Red Wall’ rally in Phoenix

PHOENIX — President Donald Trump will headline Turning Point Action’s “Build the Red Wall” rally Friday at Dream City Church in north Phoenix, joined by five of Arizona’s six Republican congressmen.

Doors open at 9 a.m., with pre-programming kicking off at noon and Trump’s remarks scheduled for 2 p.m., according to organizers. Dream City Church, which is located at 13613 N. Cave Creek Rd., has hosted Trump for events before, including a Turning Point Action rally in 2020 and a town hall in 2024.

Five of Arizona’s six Republican House members are appearing alongside Trump. Rep. David Schweikert, who represents the 1st District, is not listed as a speaker.

The speaker list includes:

• Rep. Andy Biggs, who currently represents Phoenix’s East Valley in AZ-05. He is running for governor and has Trump’s endorsement.
• Rep. Eli Crane, who represents the wide-spanning AZ-02. He is an incumbent running for re-election.
• Rep. Abe Hamadeh, who represents Phoenix’s West Vally in AZ-08. He is running for re-election.
• Rep. Paul Gosar, who represents the rural western part of the state in AZ-09. He is running for re-election.
• Rep. Juan Ciscomani, who represents southern Arizona in AZ-06. He is running for re-election.

Erika Kirk is also listed as a speaker. Kirk succeeded her late husband as Turning Point USA’s CEO after his assassination.

Tomorrow. Phoenix.

Let’s Build The Red Wall.
