Leak or forgery? Storm surrounding White House documents

A fierce controversy is developing on social media regarding claims raised by Candace Owens, known for her distinct conservative stance, that the White House sent an internal email instructing to distribute and amplify a video in which Erica Kirk is seen saying "I want to go home." According to Owens, the email was sent from the White House Military Office about an hour after the shooting incident in which there was an attempt to assassinate President Trump.

The report sparked contradictory reactions and claims regarding the credibility of the information. While the GeneralMCNews account, identified with positions supporting the leak narrative, presented the document as a dramatic revelation regarding the third assassination attempt on President Trump, other users cast significant doubt on its authenticity.

The center of the controversy stems from the fact that the document presented is not the scanned original, but a version that Owens retyped manually. Various commenters claimed it was a "forgery" and questioned Owens' willingness to rely on a personal transcription instead of a photograph of the original document, while her supporters claimed it was a precautionary measure intended to protect the identity of the leaker.

The reports gained wide exposure of nearly half a million views within a single day, reflecting the high political tension surrounding the attempts to harm the president and the struggle over the credibility of information distributed on social media.
