There’s a “tremendous amount of disinformation” being shared online about the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk, some of it coming from overseas, Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said. “What we’re seeing is our adversaries want violence,” he said Thursday night at a media briefing attended by FBI Director Kash Patel, who didn’t speak.
“We have bots from Russia, China, all over the world that are trying to instill disinformation and encourage violence,” Cox said, as he urged the public to take a break from social media.

This is the same guy who was like “I wanted so hard to believe it wasn’t someone from here that did it” Seems like he really wants an outside threat to demonize, surely people won’t fall for that- oh right never mind lmao
