As New Yorkers know, scaffolding has become a serious scourge on our streets. What began as a safety measure has now done the opposite and helped to breed crime. But thanks to a recent legislative effort by New York City Council Member Keith Powers, Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine, and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, scaffolding regulations have been reformed for the better, and New Yorkers can expect a lot less in their neighborhoods in the coming years. Powers and Bragg join Bradley to discuss why they focused on this issue and their model of political pragmatism that makes New York City a better place to live. Plus, Bradley hashes out the complexities of rezonings with Powers and discusses the threat of 3D printed guns and more with Bragg.This episode was taped at P&T Knitwear at 180 Orchard Street — New York City's only free podcast recording studio.Send us an email with your thoughts on today's episode: info@firewall.media.Subscribe to Bradley's weekly newsletter, follow Bradley on Linkedin + Substack + YouTube, be sure to order his new book, Vote With Your Phone. .

We take it for granted that through language and communication we can learn about the experience of others. But it remains unknown whether we can fully know what it is like to be another human being. James Baldwin and Jean-Paul Sartre take radically different approaches. For Sartre, the experience of others is unknown to us. Fundamentally, we are alone with our own subjectivity. While for Baldwin, "to encounter oneself is to encounter the other; and this is love". Summing up his disagreement with Sartre he remarked: "it has always seemed to me that ideas were somewhat more real to him than people.”Was Baldwin right that to be alive is to be socially connected to others? Or is Sartre's insight that the only thing we can know is our own experience more telling? Should we conclude that we cannot understand the experience of another unless we have had the same experience? Or is language capable of bridging the seemingly impossible gap between us?

The Trump administration is making a mockery of a well-designed system the U.S. government has long employed for naming important places for historical figures. The latest example: Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's too-clever-by-half move to rename North Carolina's Fort Liberty Army base as Fort Bragg. The name was changed from Bragg to Liberty just […]

Join Jim and Greg for the 3 Martini Lunch podcast, where they break down President Trump's ultimatum to Hamas, the return of Fort Bragg's name in a clever way, and alarming reports of FBI figures allegedly tipping off illegal immigrants about ICE raids.First, President Trump is issuing a stern warning to Hamas, saying that hell will be unleashed if all hostages are not released by Saturday. His ultimatum comes as Hamas pauses its release of hostages, claiming Israel has violated the terms of the ceasefire. Jim believes Trump's anger over the condition of released hostages is evident, and they both think the vague nature of Trump's threat is a smart way to put pressure on the terrorists.Next, Jim and Greg applaud Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth's decision to rename Fort Liberty in North Carolina back to Fort Bragg. The name had been familiar to many, and this change not only ends the confusion but also shifts the honor to a different individual named Bragg—a U.S. Army PFC who heroically fought at the Battle of the Bulge, rather than the Confederate general.Finally, they react to disturbing allegations that some FBI figures and other government sources are tipping off illegal immigrants about pending ICE raids aimed at removing criminals and others who are in the U.S. illegally. Jim says anyone who has a problem with the policy needs to resign or ask for a transfer. And anyone who deliberately undermines it should face stiff penalties.Please visit our great sponsors:Oraclehttps://Oracle.com/MARTINICut your current Cloud bill in half if you move to OCI.

We really enjoyed talking with Mary Bragg about her new EP “The Quiet One” OUT TOMORROW (1/23/25). We got really deep chatting about the importance of listening, getting lost in theactivity of writing, accepting your inner critic rather than fighting it, and so much more including her recent wedding! An artist, songwriter, producer, and engineer, the Swainsboro, Georgia native began to fully come into her own with her 2017 record, the critically acclaimed Lucky Strike. Hailedas a “sublime distilling of Southern grit” by NPR, the album dipped its toes into a kind of radical honesty that Bragg had only previously hinted at, which she then committed further to for her self-titled album, Mary Bragg, released in 2022. Covering heartbreak, divorce, coming out, grief, and self-actualization, Mary Bragg depicts themes centered around the life tenets most important to her – love, kindness, and honesty. Bragg tours extensively, both with her band and solo, playing headline and festival dates to ever-growing audiences across the US, Canada, and Europe. Since earning her Master of Artsin Songwriting and Production at BerkleeNYC, Bragg just released a lush new EP, Tie Me to You, and hints at a forthcoming full-length record. Having opened tours for the Indigo Girls, The Secret Sisters, Mick Flannery, and even Miranda Lambert, Bragg is gearing up for a robust chapter, because, as Saving Country Music said, “Watch out.” Check Mary out here— Website: marybragg.com Instagram: marybragg Facebook: Mary Lowman-Bragg YouTube: Mary Bragg music
Reports of the New Orleans and Las Vegas ‘attacks' have been, as always, convoluted, misrepresented, and inconsistent - from the number of dead to the actual perpetuator or perpetuators. The most outstanding details of these two cases are that the reportedly guilty were both stationed at Fort Bragg, the same military base where the presidential assassin Ryan Routh visited and spent the night, and the same place the Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh was assessed. Couple this with the fact we are watching the 911 playbook unfold again, with Shamsud-Din Bahar Jabbar, the supposed American soldier, being labeled an Islamic extremist who had a Quran in his house with a workbench and prayer rug, and a really conveniently placed ISIS flag on his truck - this is after having been called an illegal immigrant. Turns out his alternative name is Eli or Sham, which is a Jewish name, not an Arab one. Likewise, the reporter Jennie Taer, who was given access to his house, is a Jewish reporter conveniently finding proof to condemn Arabs and Islam to the salivating jaws of the MIC.Once again, Israeli elements encouraging hatred of Islam and poking the American war machine to go to war with the Arab world. The most important detail, however, comes with the reports of how Shem was having dreams that helped inspire him to join ISIS. Were these actual dreams, or were they a result of the Israeli Noveto System “Sound Beaming” technology which puts sounds into your head but not into the heads of others around you. Even older technology of this sort was used for advertisements in Los Angeles via billboards. MITs Dormio project goes even further, allowing for voice prompts to influence dreams so via a sort of inception the dreamer hears and sees what the prompt programs. Perhaps Allah could speak using these systems. -FREE ARCHIVE (w. ads)SUBSCRIPTION ARCHIVEX / TWITTER FACEBOOKWEBSITEPAYPALCashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tst-radio--5328407/support.

Suspected assassin Luigi Mangione sat shackled before the New York Supreme Court, his maroon sweater, collared shirt, and orange shoes lending an almost surreal normalcy to the scene. At just 26 years old, Mangione faces accusations that would forever alter the lives of everyone involved. Charged with the December 4 murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, the case against Mangione has unraveled into a spectacle of political intrigue, social commentary, and legal complexities—a reflection of a fractured system and the unpredictable nature of public reaction. The courtroom was tense as Mangione leaned toward the microphone, chains clinking faintly against the table, to utter his plea: not guilty. It was a single moment, yet one weighted with significance. For prosecutors, it marked the formal beginning of a case they've described as “a frightening, well-planned, targeted murder”—a crime intended to terrorize. For Mangione's defense, it was a critical pivot in their strategy, one complicated by the unusual dual tracks of state and federal charges. A Crime That Shocked the Nation On a cold December morning, Brian Thompson was walking toward an investor conference in midtown Manhattan, a routine step in his high-powered career. Then came the sound of gunfire. Witnesses reported seeing a man fleeing the scene, leaving behind a chilling clue: bullet casings inscribed with the words “deny,” “defend,” and “depose.” The messages were unmistakable—a direct nod to the controversial practices of the health insurance industry. Police arrived within minutes, but the shooter had vanished into the city. Thompson's murder sent shockwaves through corporate America. His role as CEO of UnitedHealthcare made him a symbol of the very industry criticized for prioritizing profit over people. The crime scene, with its cryptic clues, hinted at a killer with a calculated message. Within hours, law enforcement agencies were working together to track down the suspect. Five days later, Mangione was arrested in a Pennsylvania McDonald's. Police found a gun matching the ballistics from the scene and a fake ID in his possession. Also seized was a notebook expressing deep hostility toward the health insurance industry, particularly its executives. Legal Maze: Dual Prosecutions Mangione now faces parallel prosecutions. In state court, the Manhattan district attorney charged him with multiple counts of murder, including murder as an act of terrorism. At a press conference announcing the charges, DA Alvin Bragg emphasized the calculated nature of the crime, calling it a “killing intended to evoke terror.” The federal charges, on the other hand, include terrorism-related offenses that could lead to the death penalty if Mangione is convicted. Legal experts have noted the rarity of such simultaneous cases, with some criticizing the potential for conflicting strategies. Karen Friedman Agnifilo, Mangione's defense attorney, has not minced words. During a federal hearing, she described the dual prosecutions as “very confusing” and “highly unusual.” The federal charges, she argued, could undermine Mangione's ability to mount a coherent defense in the state trial, which is expected to proceed first. “We're navigating uncharted waters,” she said. A Divided Public Reaction While prosecutors argue Mangione's actions were nothing short of domestic terrorism, public opinion has proven far more divided. Demonstrators gathered outside the courthouse during Mangione's arraignment, clutching signs that ranged from “Justice for Thompson” to “Free Mangione.” The latter group, a vocal minority, has cast Mangione as a vigilante hero, claiming his alleged actions were a dramatic—if extreme—response to perceived corruption in the healthcare industry. Social media has amplified this polarization. Hashtags like #MangioneTheMartyr and #HealthcareJustice have trended alongside condemnations of the crime. Some supporters have even gone so far as to fundraise for Mangione's legal defense. They point to the bullet casings and notebook as evidence of a broader political statement, rather than an act of senseless violence. Not all of Mangione's supporters are focused on his alleged motives. Some have fixated on his appearance, dubbing him the “handsome assassin.” This bizarre twist has only added to the media frenzy surrounding the case, with tabloid headlines oscillating between serious analysis and absurd fascination. The Evidence Piles Up The prosecution's case appears formidable. Ballistics tests have matched the gun found on Mangione to the weapon used in Thompson's murder. The notebook seized during his arrest contains detailed grievances against the health insurance industry, as well as chilling references to “making an example” of wealthy executives. Prosecutors argue these details demonstrate premeditation. DA Bragg has leaned heavily on the terrorism charges, framing the murder as an attack designed to intimidate a broader audience. “This wasn't just about Brian Thompson,” Bragg said. “This was about sending a message.” Yet Mangione's defense team has pushed back, questioning the integrity of the investigation. They have raised concerns about potential bias in the handling of evidence and have hinted at exploring Mangione's mental state as a factor in their defense. Agnifilo has also criticized the public framing of the case, arguing that the media's portrayal of her client has made a fair trial nearly impossible. A Broader Conversation Thompson's murder has reignited scrutiny of the health insurance industry, bringing books like Jay M. Feinman's “Delay, Deny, Defend” back into the public discourse. Feinman's work, which critiques the industry's alleged tactics of avoiding payouts, has been cited as eerily similar to the inscriptions found on the bullet casings. While there is no direct evidence linking Mangione to Feinman's book, the parallels have not gone unnoticed. The case has also prompted discussions about the role of terrorism charges in domestic crimes. Critics argue that labeling Mangione's actions as terrorism risks conflating political dissent with violent extremism. Others counter that the label is appropriate given the calculated nature of the crime and its intent to intimidate. What Comes Next? The state trial is expected to begin within months, with the federal case likely to follow. As the legal process unfolds, the public will be watching closely, not just for the outcome, but for what the case reveals about broader societal tensions. Mangione's fate may hinge on whether the jury views him as a cold-blooded killer or a misguided figure acting out of desperation. Either way, the trial promises to be a defining moment in the intersection of justice, politics, and public perception. Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Suspected assassin Luigi Mangione sat shackled before the New York Supreme Court, his maroon sweater, collared shirt, and orange shoes lending an almost surreal normalcy to the scene. At just 26 years old, Mangione faces accusations that would forever alter the lives of everyone involved. Charged with the December 4 murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, the case against Mangione has unraveled into a spectacle of political intrigue, social commentary, and legal complexities—a reflection of a fractured system and the unpredictable nature of public reaction. The courtroom was tense as Mangione leaned toward the microphone, chains clinking faintly against the table, to utter his plea: not guilty. It was a single moment, yet one weighted with significance. For prosecutors, it marked the formal beginning of a case they've described as “a frightening, well-planned, targeted murder”—a crime intended to terrorize. For Mangione's defense, it was a critical pivot in their strategy, one complicated by the unusual dual tracks of state and federal charges. A Crime That Shocked the Nation On a cold December morning, Brian Thompson was walking toward an investor conference in midtown Manhattan, a routine step in his high-powered career. Then came the sound of gunfire. Witnesses reported seeing a man fleeing the scene, leaving behind a chilling clue: bullet casings inscribed with the words “deny,” “defend,” and “depose.” The messages were unmistakable—a direct nod to the controversial practices of the health insurance industry. Police arrived within minutes, but the shooter had vanished into the city. Thompson's murder sent shockwaves through corporate America. His role as CEO of UnitedHealthcare made him a symbol of the very industry criticized for prioritizing profit over people. The crime scene, with its cryptic clues, hinted at a killer with a calculated message. Within hours, law enforcement agencies were working together to track down the suspect. Five days later, Mangione was arrested in a Pennsylvania McDonald's. Police found a gun matching the ballistics from the scene and a fake ID in his possession. Also seized was a notebook expressing deep hostility toward the health insurance industry, particularly its executives. Legal Maze: Dual Prosecutions Mangione now faces parallel prosecutions. In state court, the Manhattan district attorney charged him with multiple counts of murder, including murder as an act of terrorism. At a press conference announcing the charges, DA Alvin Bragg emphasized the calculated nature of the crime, calling it a “killing intended to evoke terror.” The federal charges, on the other hand, include terrorism-related offenses that could lead to the death penalty if Mangione is convicted.

[SEGMENT 1-1] A Very MAGA Christmas 1 As we gather around the Christmas tree this year, sipping eggnog and humming carols, let us reflect on what has been a truly remarkable year for the MAGA movement. It feels almost like a Christmas miracle—or perhaps a whole series of them—that Donald Trump has once again triumphed over the never-ending shenanigans of the Left. From Alvin Bragg's legal circus to Letitia James' wild goose chases, and from the media's collective meltdown to the implosion of Biden's administration, 2024 has been the gift that keeps on giving. So, let's unwrap this year's highlights and sprinkle in some holiday cheer.The Year Kicked Off With Indictment Mania Remember when Alvin Bragg thought he'd deliver the fatal blow to Trump's political career with his "stormy" case involving hush money? Bragg's legal theories were so bizarre they made Rube Goldberg machines look straightforward. While the Manhattan DA was busy turning legal gymnastics into performance art, Trump was busy rallying the nation. Even CNN's legal analysts had to sheepishly admit Bragg's case lacked the teeth they'd hoped for (source). And then there was Fani Willis down in Georgia, valiantly trying to turn a phone call into a criminal enterprise. Her case fizzled faster than a cheap sparkler on New Year's Eve, but not before exposing how desperate the Left had become to smear Trump. [SEGMENT 1-2] A Very MAGA ChristmasThe DOJ's 91 Indictments: All Smoke, No Fire Special Counsel Jack Smith may have managed to stack 91 indictments against Trump, but let's be honest: it was like Geraldo Rivera opening Al Capone's vault. Nothing to see here, folks. Instead of taking Trump down, Smith inadvertently made him the political version of John Wick: the more they attacked, the stronger he became. Even MSNBC had to admit the indictments weren't landing as intended (source). Meanwhile, the DOJ itself unraveled under the weight of its hypocrisy. Hunter Biden's laptop? Ignored. Classified documents at Biden's Delaware home? Brushed under the rug. But try as they might, the American public saw through the double standards. Poll after poll revealed waning trust in the DOJ and FBI, culminating in Christopher Wray's resignation. A Christmas miracle indeed!Santa's New Elves: Trump's Appointments This year, Trump began assembling his administration-in-waiting, and oh, what a lineup it is! Each appointee is a present under the MAGA tree, guaranteed to send shivers down Leftist spines.Mike Davis (Attorney General): Known for his fierce takedowns of judicial overreach, Davis is set to bring the DOJ back in line. Leftists are already clutching their pearls at the thought of real accountability.Kash Patel (Director of National Intelligence): Patel's no-nonsense approach to exposing the Russia hoax makes him the perfect choice to clean house in the intelligence community.Ric Grenell (UN Ambassador): The Left loathes Grenell for his unapologetic America-first diplomacy. Expect him to give the UN a much-needed reality check.Each of these appointments signals a return to common sense and patriotism, and the Left's fear is palpable.The Media's Slow and Painful Demise Let's take a moment to appreciate the glorious collapse of mainstream media. CNN's ratings hit all-time lows, and even their golden girl Kaitlan Collins couldn't save the sinking ship. Joy Reid's MSNBC show? Barely hanging on. Meanwhile, The View's hosts spent more time screaming at each other than discussing coherent topics. The media's meltdown reached peak hilarity when they tried to spin Trump's victories as failures. When polls showed his approval climbing, they insisted the numbers were rigged. It was like watching someone try to argue that Santa doesn't exist while standing in a room full of presents.Holiday Ironies: Biden, Harris, and the “Ho Ho Ho” of Politics Biden's presidency has become the political equivalent of fruitcake—nobody wants it, but it just won't go away. His cognitive decline became impossible to ignore, even for the most loyal Democrats. And then there's Kamala Harris, the vice president who's been snubbed more times than a re-gifted sweater. The Bidens didn't even include her in their Christmas photo—a move so petty it deserves its own Hallmark movie.Kwanzaa and Kamala: A Tale of Two Fictions Speaking of Harris, her attempts to connect with African-American voters by celebrating Kwanzaa have been nothing short of cringe-inducing. Kwanzaa, much like her authenticity, feels manufactured. The internet had a field day mocking her forced enthusiasm, with memes comparing her to Michael Scott's infamous “Diversity Day” antics.Trump's Victory Lap And now, the pièce de résistance: Trump's victory. Despite the Left's relentless efforts to stop him, he's emerged stronger than ever. His rallies are packed, his base is energized, and his policies are resonating with everyday Americans. It's as if the Grinch tried to steal Christmas but ended up handing out gifts instead.Looking Ahead to 2025 As we head into the new year, the MAGA movement is more united than ever. Trump's second term promises to be a renaissance of American greatness, and the Left's tears will be the icing on the Christmas cookies. So here's to a Merry MAGA Christmas and a Happy New Year! May your holidays be filled with laughter, joy, and the sweet satisfaction of knowing that the best is yet to come. Cheers! [SEGMENT 1-3] A Very MAGA Christmas 3 – CR The Kevin Jackson Radio Show: Introduction "Welcome to The Kevin Jackson Radio Show, where we tackle the news the way Democrats handle the truth—recklessly, with a hint of holiday flair. Today, we're diving into the season's hottest topics: doom, debt, and Democrats throwing every trick in their playbook. Because nothing says 'Merry Christmas' like Leftist overreach and apocalyptic predictions. So Merry Xmas from the Democrats who gave us the gift of bigger government spending.Democrats Using the Entire Playbook First, the world will end if we can't fund the government. Forget that we play this little game every year, then we put it on steroids during a presidential transition. In this case, Democrats are jockeying to preserve what they want to call a great presidency, despite them nuking Old Joe into oblivion. Threatening shutdowns, twirling budget debates like a flaming baton. It's like Christmas caroling, but with fewer harmonies and more taxpayer extortion. Democrats claim the world will end if we don't raise the debt ceiling. Isn't it funny how we never run out of ways to spend money we don't have? And interestingly, we never seem to run out of money. Consider this: the national debt balloons yearly, no matter what legislation is passed—Balanced Budget Amendments, Pay-Go rules, you name it. The Democrats' new rallying cry? Save Christmas by saving government jobs. But let's be real. What happens when non-essential government employees are furloughed? Nothing. So, why do we have non-essential employees at all? Isn't “non-essential” just code for “we hired them because we can”? Trump sniffed out their treachery, because the stench of a Democrats can be smelled for miles by even the least sensitive nose. Trump had them rewrite the bill, shrinking it from 1500+ pages to 90ish. And Democrats declined to pass it. Who can blame them, as Trump's bill only contained the necessities and not all the pork Democrats are used to getting. But they do have a good reason to want the old bill: to save Christmas! The Budget Battle: Grinch Edition Now back to Hakeem Jeffries, who warns that without funding, Christmas will collapse. Flights will stop, chaos will ensue, and—wait for it—people will die in the streets. Someone hand this guy a script for It's a Wonderful Life. Funny thing is, every time we hit a budget crisis, the government shuts down briefly, everyone panics, and then… employees get paid anyway. So here's my question: why don't we trim the fat permanently? If a position is “non-essential,” it's probably also “non-taxpayer-worthy.” Let's give these people the greatest Christmas gift of all: a reason to update their résumés[SEGMENT 1-4] A Very MAGA Christmas 4 - Existential threats I looked up all the things that are existential threats. https://www.sciencenews.org/article/threats-civilization-survival-humanity-apocalypse Nuclear war Bioengineered pandemic Superintelligence (quantum computing) Nanotechnology Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.
Luigi Mangione, accused of the targeted killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, has been extradited to New York, where he faces charges of first-degree murder in furtherance of terrorism and additional counts of second-degree murder and weapons violations. Arrested on December 9 in Altoona, Pennsylvania, Mangione was transferred to New York on Thursday after waiving extradition earlier this week. Mangione, 26, had been held in solitary confinement at the State Correctional Institution Huntingdon in Pennsylvania, where officials confirmed he had limited interaction and an austere daily routine. He ate meals alone in his cell and only left to shower. Officials did not confirm whether he ever took advantage of outdoor recreation time during his incarceration in Pennsylvania. Since his arrest, his only visitors have been his legal team, including a meeting on December 13 with his New York attorney, Karen Friedman Agnifilo. Mangione's extradition marks a significant development in the case, which has drawn national attention. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg alleges that Mangione's actions were premeditated and intended to intimidate. On December 4, Mangione is accused of lying in wait for nearly an hour outside a Manhattan hotel before ambushing Thompson as he walked to work. Authorities say Mangione fired a suppressed 9mm handgun, shooting Thompson from behind in what Bragg described as a "calculated act of terrorism." Thompson, who led the largest private health insurance company in the U.S., may have been targeted due to his prominent role in the healthcare industry, according to investigators. Authorities have not ruled out federal charges against Mangione, which could escalate the legal stakes even further. However, sources close to the case have clarified that the state murder charges in New York would remain the primary focus. Friedman Agnifilo has criticized the potential for federal involvement, labeling the pursuit of additional charges as "highly unusual" and raising concerns about double jeopardy. Meanwhile, Mangione's Pennsylvania attorney, Thomas Dickey, stated that Mangione plans to plead not guilty to charges in Pennsylvania, including forgery, tampering with records, and carrying a firearm without a license. During his incarceration in Pennsylvania, Mangione garnered vocal support from some inmates. Shortly after his arrival, detainees disrupted a live NewsNation broadcast outside the prison, shouting phrases like, “Luigi's conditions suck” and “Free Luigi.” New York Governor Kathy Hochul reiterated her commitment to seeking justice following Mangione's arrival in the state, stating, “I'm ready to ensure that justice is served for Brian Thompson and his family.” Mangione was apprehended five days after the murder, identified through security footage released by the FBI and NYPD. If convicted of first-degree murder as an act of terrorism, he faces life imprisonment without parole. A standard second-degree murder conviction could result in 25 years to life. As Mangione prepares for his first court appearance in New York, legal experts anticipate a complex and highly scrutinized trial. His transfer to New York marks the beginning of the next phase of proceedings, with federal prosecutors continuing to evaluate whether additional charges will be filed.

Terror in Midtown: Luigi Mangione Indicted for UnitedHealthcare CEO's Murder Two days before Luigi Mangione was arrested in Pennsylvania, his mother, Kathleen Mangione, made a chilling statement to investigators, saying she "could see him" committing the crime. Her comments were revealed as Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg announced an indictment charging Mangione with first-degree murder for the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, which prosecutors described as an act of terrorism. Thompson, 50, was walking through Midtown Manhattan on Dec. 4 when he was gunned down in what authorities believe was a targeted attack. Police allege that Mangione, 26, approached Thompson from behind, fired multiple shots, and fled the scene, leaving shell casings with cryptic inscriptions and other evidence behind. In early December, investigators received a tip from San Francisco police linking Mangione to the crime. Surveillance footage from a hostel showed a man resembling Mangione, prompting New York police to contact his mother. NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny recounted their conversation: “She didn't confirm it was her son in the photo, but she did state that it was something she could see him doing.” Kathleen Mangione had filed a missing person report for her son in November, months after he had gone out of contact with his family and friends. The day before Luigi Mangione was arrested, her statement about his potential involvement was being prepared for follow-up by detectives, but his capture in Pennsylvania preempted further inquiries. Mangione was arrested on Dec. 9 at a McDonald's in Altoona, Pa., after an observant customer recognized him and alerted staff. He was found in possession of a 9 mm ghost gun, a suppressor, and several fake IDs. Police say Mangione left behind a trail of evidence linking him to the murder, including fingerprints on shell casings, a water bottle, and a granola bar at the scene. The shell casings bore words like “deny,” “depose,” and “delay,” reflecting common criticisms of health insurance practices. Investigators also recovered a three-page manifesto in Mangione's possession, where he condemned the health insurance industry and referred to its employees as “parasites.” Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg described the attack as an act of terrorism designed to instill fear. “Midtown Manhattan is the heart of New York City. This crime, committed at the start of a busy day among commuters and tourists, was intended to spread terror,” he said. Mangione, an Ivy League graduate from a prominent Maryland family, had been estranged from his loved ones for six months before his arrest. He is currently being held without bail in Pennsylvania on weapons and forgery charges while fighting extradition to New York. First-degree murder charges in New York require specific aggravating factors, such as acts of terrorism. Bragg argued that Mangione's actions meet the legal definition, citing his alleged intent to coerce a civilian population through violence. Online activity linked to Mangione suggests deep-seated grievances with the healthcare system. A Reddit account believed to belong to him described chronic health issues, including a misaligned spine and irritable bowel syndrome, and frustrations with navigating insurance claims.

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Terror in Midtown: Luigi Mangione Indicted for UnitedHealthcare CEO's Murder Two days before Luigi Mangione was arrested in Pennsylvania, his mother, Kathleen Mangione, made a chilling statement to investigators, saying she "could see him" committing the crime. Her comments were revealed as Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg announced an indictment charging Mangione with first-degree murder for the killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, which prosecutors described as an act of terrorism. Thompson, 50, was walking through Midtown Manhattan on Dec. 4 when he was gunned down in what authorities believe was a targeted attack. Police allege that Mangione, 26, approached Thompson from behind, fired multiple shots, and fled the scene, leaving shell casings with cryptic inscriptions and other evidence behind. In early December, investigators received a tip from San Francisco police linking Mangione to the crime. Surveillance footage from a hostel showed a man resembling Mangione, prompting New York police to contact his mother. NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny recounted their conversation: “She didn't confirm it was her son in the photo, but she did state that it was something she could see him doing.” Kathleen Mangione had filed a missing person report for her son in November, months after he had gone out of contact with his family and friends. The day before Luigi Mangione was arrested, her statement about his potential involvement was being prepared for follow-up by detectives, but his capture in Pennsylvania preempted further inquiries. Mangione was arrested on Dec. 9 at a McDonald's in Altoona, Pa., after an observant customer recognized him and alerted staff. He was found in possession of a 9 mm ghost gun, a suppressor, and several fake IDs. Police say Mangione left behind a trail of evidence linking him to the murder, including fingerprints on shell casings, a water bottle, and a granola bar at the scene. The shell casings bore words like “deny,” “depose,” and “delay,” reflecting common criticisms of health insurance practices. Investigators also recovered a three-page manifesto in Mangione's possession, where he condemned the health insurance industry and referred to its employees as “parasites.” Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg described the attack as an act of terrorism designed to instill fear. “Midtown Manhattan is the heart of New York City. This crime, committed at the start of a busy day among commuters and tourists, was intended to spread terror,” he said. Mangione, an Ivy League graduate from a prominent Maryland family, had been estranged from his loved ones for six months before his arrest. He is currently being held without bail in Pennsylvania on weapons and forgery charges while fighting extradition to New York. First-degree murder charges in New York require specific aggravating factors, such as acts of terrorism. Bragg argued that Mangione's actions meet the legal definition, citing his alleged intent to coerce a civilian population through violence. Online activity linked to Mangione suggests deep-seated grievances with the healthcare system. A Reddit account believed to belong to him described chronic health issues, including a misaligned spine and irritable bowel syndrome, and frustrations with navigating insurance claims. Efforts to contact Mangione's attorney, Karen Friedman Agnifilo, and his cousin, Maryland politician Nino Mangione, were unsuccessful. Mangione is set to appear in court again on Dec. 19, as prosecutors continue building their case against him. #TrueCrime #NYC #Healthcare #MurderCase #Terrorism #BrianThompson #Justice Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

Join Jim and Greg on 3 Martini Lunch as they breathe a sigh of relief over the Daniel Penny verdict, condemn Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg's disastrous impact on public safety, and unpack the shocking story of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson's alleged killer.First, they applaud the New York City jury for acquitting Daniel Penny of criminally negligent homicide after he restrained a threatening subway passenger. Jim and Greg argue that Penny, who acted as a Good Samaritan, should never have faced charges and are relieved he won't face imprisonment for protecting others.First, they're very glad to see a New York City jury acquit Daniel Penny on a charge of criminally negligent homicide after restraining a man on the subway who had been threatening and menacing numerous passengers. Penny should never have faced charges and should have been commended for his actions, but at least he won't be incarcerated for being a Good Samaritan.Next, they criticize media outlets for badly misrepresenting the facts of the Penny case and spotlight the head of Black Lives Matter in New York City for calling for black vigilantes. Despite Penny's acquittal, they warn that Alvin Bragg's actions as district attorney discourage people from intervening to protect their neighbors, leaving New Yorkers less safe.Finally, they react to the arrest of Luigi Mangione, the Ivy League graduate accused of killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. They discuss how the details of the case contradict widespread assumptions and condemn commentators who justify or celebrate the murder due to grievances with health insurance practices.Please visit our great sponsors:Lumenhttps://lumen.me/3MLVisit Lumen.me/3ML for 15% off your purchase.NetSuitehttps://NetSuite.com/MARTINIDownload your FREE CFO's Guide to AI and Machine Learning at NetSuite.com/MARTINIOmaha Steakshttps://omahasteaks.comSave 50% off sitewide during the Christmas gift buying season and be sure to use promo codeTHREE ML for an extra $30 off.

Former Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney and National Review Contributing Editor Andy McCarthy steps in for Jim Geraghty on today's 3 Martini Lunch. Andy and Greg dive into Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg's request to delay sentencing Donald Trump for four years, whether the courts will side with Trump on deportations, and the damaging impact of Republican senators missing votes on Biden judicial nominees.They begin by discussing Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg asking for a four-year delay in sentencing Donald Trump until after Trump leaves the White House in 2029. Andy explains Trump is already appealing the verdict over immunity arguments and why both Trump and Bragg have good reasons to want the extended pause. Next, they examine whether federal courts will support Trump's mass deportation plans. Andy explores the broad authority of the federal government over immigration and the limitations of what state and local officials can do about it. But after the federal courts upheld Biden's authority in the midst of his utter utter failure border security, will Trump get the same reacton when he tries to execute a very different set of policies?Finally, Andy and Greg share their frustration over several Republican senators missing key votes, enabling controversial Biden judicial nominees to secure lifetime appointments. While senators like JD Vance and Marco Rubio were tied up with responsibilities for the incoming administration, their absences allowed far-left nominees to reshape the judiciary for decades.Please visit out great sponsors:Omahahttps://omahasteaks.comSave 50% off sitewide and get an extra $30 off with promo code 3MLZbioticshttps://zbiotics.com/3MLUse code 3ML at checkout to save 15% off your first order.
