Who is the terrorist?
The United States is assassinating Russian generals outside of their homes. The Russians didn’t do anything.
This CEO was colluding with the government to drain the blood of the American people.
AP:
The man accused of killing UnitedHealthcare’s CEO has been charged with murder as an act of terrorism, prosecutors said Tuesday as they worked to bring him to a New York court from a Pennsylvania jail.Luigi Mangione already was charged with murder in the Dec. 4 killing of Brian Thompson, but the terror allegation is new.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg said Thompson’s death on a midtown Manhattan street “was a killing that was intended to evoke terror. And we’ve seen that reaction.”

Mangione’s New York lawyer, Karen Friedman Agnifilo, declined to comment.
Why didn’t he get an Italian lawyer?
Most lawyers are Jewish, but there are a lot of Italian lawyers. It’s not good to have a female Jew lawyer, unless you are suing someone for some kind of sexual abuse.
Thompson, 50, was shot while walking to a hotel where Minnesota-based UnitedHealthcare — the United States’ biggest medical insurer — was holding an investor conference.The killing kindled a fiery outpouring of resentment toward U.S. health insurance companies, as Americans swapped stories online and elsewhere of being denied coverage, left in limbo as doctors and insurers disagreed, and stuck with sizeable bills.
The shooting also rattled C-suites, as “wanted” posters with other health care executives’ names and faces appeared on New York streets and some social media users extolled Mangione’s deed as payback.
New York Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said Tuesday that “any attempt to rationalize this is vile, reckless and offensive to our deeply held principles of justice.”

Investigators’ working theory is that Mangione, an Ivy League computer science grad from a prominent Maryland family, was propelled by anger at the U.S. health care system. A law enforcement bulletin obtained by The Associated Press last week said that when arrested, he was carrying a handwritten letter that called health insurance companies “parasitic” and complained about corporate greed.
Here’s the court document, indictment calling it “terrorism.”

It’s not terrorism.
Obviously, you have to charge this guy with a murder. Hopefully, the jury lets him off. But terrorism is a stupid charge.
There is no evidence that this was even political. Actually, it’s questionable whether Luigi even did it. Do you trust the cops not to plant the evidence? Do you think a McDonald’s employee (who is not even going to get the reward, apparently) recognized his eyebrows?
The US government literally assassinates people. They do not believe in “the rule of law.” No one really believes in that, frankly. Not now. Not after all that has happened. People would prefer revenge over laws.
