Utah Governor Spencer Cox basked in praise for his 'unity' plea at Friday's FBI press conference — but the man whose alleged assassin he was discussing once wanted him expelled from the Republican Party.
Cox dominated the podium detailing Charlie Kirk's murder just three years after the TPUSA founder branded him a 'weak moderate' who 'should be expelled from the Republican party.'
The 2022 social media blast came after Cox vetoed a bill banning biological males from women's sports — a move that infuriated Kirk and conservative activists.
Now friends of the slain activist find it 'ironic' that the same governor Kirk wanted kicked out of the GOP pushed aside FBI officials to control the narrative around his death.
The feud ran deeper: Cox also threatened to veto a statewide ban on transgender surgeries for minors, prompting Kirk to accuse him of being 'paid off by Big Pharma who make billions off hormone blockers and chemical castration.'
Yet on Friday, in a stunning about-face, Cox opened the press conference by claiming he was 'inspired by Kirk's writings and beliefs' — urging the dead activist's followers to let their 'anger fade.'
The governor's sudden reverence for a man who'd savaged him as corrupt rang hollow to those who remembered their bitter public battles.

No hon, i was asking the Utah gov to ask Brett about Chuck Schumer’s reap the whirlwind threat. If that was violent “words” or not. The gov seems to think 54% of Dems saying assassination of Pres Trump is justified, isn’t violence.
Right. If it were the other way around, Charlie Kirk would have put this feud behind him as well and supported the governor’s family and calling for justice.
This is an attempt by the media to create division.
Not in 28. He would not have been old enough. And he would not have run against Vance.
Works for me, if the locals are on top of it. Biden killed the FBi for me and Dan Bongino looking like he was swallowing the butt hole off a skunk saying Epstein killed his self finished the Feebees to me. IMO
Oh, ya, there were and I made comments that were in opposition and was attacked. I knew who this clown was and how phony his words were, but, alas, I was condemned by those who liked his touchy feely, self-promoting blather. Oh, well, the truth eventually reveals itself.
Actually, they are exposing the Governors phoniness, hypocrisy and self-promotion.
Anybody who bears the slightest thought that the FBI will thoroughly investigate this case and determine its source and breadth of participation must have been sleeping soundly for the past 65 years...
The FBI is much more than simply incompetent...
It “may” be more heavily infiltrated than the State Department has been since the 1930s...
These communists have never, and will never, be exposed and flushed...
This.
Because they are politicians. That’s what politicians do. Oh, and it stems from having a big ego and am insatiable need for power and control.
It’s evidence in a murder. It should be in law enforcement hands as of yesterday. Something is not right here. I’m concerned.
Because he is very, very sympathetic to the trans movement.
Yes, it lasted about 2 weeks and then they started attacking Bush. And Bush, the idiot, is now palsy-walsy with the left, go figure.
His speech was a lovely rainbows and unicorns bit of utopian hopium, however, the sight of Charlie’s blood gushing out still makes seeing sparkles and group hugs impossible for me.
Sorry.
/ not sorry
😉
Politician... you got that right....
Today we separate those who say Kirk deserved it and those who say political violence is unacceptable. Now is not the time to promote internal divisions that have nothing to do with the issue of the moment.
I forgot that Crooks’ body was cremated as well.
“Utah Governor Spencer Cox basked in praise for his ‘unity’ plea at Friday’s FBI press conference”
His pussified “unity plea” was absolutely REVOLTING! It turned my stomach.
I looked him up, and while he seems ok on some issues, the ones he’s not good on make me wonder if he can be re-elected in such a conservative state.
But I don’t know how things are in Utah.
He’s a dick and a RINO as well.
