Jesse Holguin is the founder of LEXIT, a grassroots movement aimed at encouraging Latinos to reconsider their political affiliations, particularly with the Democratic Party, and embrace conservative values rooted in faith and freedom. Born and raised in Los Angeles, California, Holguin's early life was marked by hardship and turmoil. Growing up in a challenging environment, he became deeply involved in gang life, eventually rising to a leadership role within his community's criminal underworld. His path took a dramatic turn after a violent incident left him shot, paralyzed, and facing the consequences of his choices, including time in prison. During this pivotal moment, Holguin experienced a profound spiritual awakening, turning to Christianity and reshaping his life's purpose. Leaving behind his past as a gang member, he dedicated himself to helping others find redemption and truth. This transformation inspired him to establish LEXIT in 2018, a movement blending "Latino" and "exit," designed to counter what he saw as misinformation and dependency perpetuated by the political left. Holguin believes the Latino community's inherent conservative values—faith, family, and hard work—align more closely with principles of liberty than with progressive ideologies. Under his leadership, LEXIT has grown rapidly, organizing rallies across the United States, leveraging social media to amplify its message, and engaging with prominent conservative figures. Holguin's efforts have earned him multiple invitations to the White House during the Trump administration, where he represented the Latino conservative voice. A self-described “soldier for Christ,” he combines his faith with activism, aiming to steer Latinos away from socialism and toward a vision of personal responsibility and national pride. From the streets of LA to the halls of power, Jesse Holguin's journey reflects a remarkable turnaround—from a life of violence and despair to one of advocacy and hope—making him a compelling figure in the contemporary conservative landscape.
