Utah’s Governor Cox took over Friday morning’s national broadcast announcing the assassin of Charlie Kirk to grandstand and promote himself.
Steve Bannon shared this on the War Room after Cox took over the press conference and stepped in front of Kash Patel to claim “We got him!”
Saw it this morning
We didn’t need a #disagreebetter lecture from Gov Cox
We need more information about what happened, how this kid got radicalized, who else was involved, etc.

Cox used the limelight for his own grandstanding and MAGA didn’t like it at all. The only ones who liked it appeared to come from the left.
It’s no surprise, Charlie Kirk was not a fan of Utah’s Governor Cox.

Charlie knew what the citizens of Utah know, Cox is not MAGA. Utah’s Phil Lyman knows Cox as well.
Lyman challenged the 2024 GOP primary he says was against GOP rules and not necessary since he won the nomination for Utah Governor at the state convention. This primary was put in place by the RINOs in Utah who didn’t accept the GOP convention results that Lyman won.
Here is Lyman explaining what went on in the Utah’s governor’s race last year.
