Gov. Cox: End Political Violence And Division

4 days ago Utah Gov. Spencer Cox is making an impassioned plea for Americans and young people in particular to use the horror of Charlie Kirk’s public assassination as an inflection point to turn the country away from political violence and division. Cox spoke Friday at a news conference announcing authorities had a suspect in the conservative activist's killing in custody. Cox says this is a moment to make a choice: escalate or “find an off-ramp.” The two-term Republican governor has, throughout his political career, issued pleas for bipartisan cooperation and drawn national attention for his empathetic remarks. Cox says the suspect in Kirk’s killing had become “more political” before Wednesday’s shooting.
