| | | | WHAT WE'RE WATCHING | | 🏳️⚧️ A trans activist assaulted Nancy Mace in the Capitol. Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) said she was "physically accosted" by a transgender activist inside the Capitol complex Tuesday evening. Mace, who suffered minor injuries, vowed to continue her fight to protect women, declaring, "Your tr*ns violence and threats on my life will only make me double down. FAFO." | 💸 The Biden-Harris admin granted Iran $10 billion in sanctions relief. Just days after Trump's election victory, the Biden administration waived sanctions to allow Iran access to $10 billion in frozen funds, citing "national security interests." Unlike Trump's previous restrictions that kept funds in escrow, Biden's waiver permits conversion to euros and access through banks in Oman, making it easier for Tehran to spend internationally. | 🕵️♂️ The Justice Department spied on Congress without court disclosure. The Justice Department secretly obtained phone records from two House members and 43 staffers, including Trump's nominee for FBI Director, Kash Patel. Inspector General Michael Horowitz found the DOJ failed to inform courts the targets were congressional members, raising significant constitutional concerns. | ❌ A federal judge blocked health coverage for DACA recipients. A federal judge blocked a Biden-Harris rule that classified Deferred Action for Child Arrivals (DACA) recipients as "lawfully present" in the US in order to grant them access to Affordable Care Act health plans. The decision follows a lawsuit by Texas and 18 states challenging federal guidance allowing DACA recipients — who are not in the country legally — to access health insurance plans. |

| | | CRIME AND JUSTICE | How the Left enabled the UnitedHealthcare CEO murder | | Luigi Mangione, a Maryland native and University of Pennsylvania graduate, has been charged with murder and multiple weapons-related offenses for the targeted killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. | Mangione penned a brief manifesto in which he apologized "for any strife of traumas" but claimed his murder "had to be done." He called healthcare execs like Thompson "parasites" and remarked that there are "clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty." | After suffering a debilitating back injury, Mangione underwent a spinal fusion surgery that left him in chronic pain. According to his friends, he began experimenting with psychedelics, like mushrooms, to manage the pain and ended up going down a dark path of radicalization against the healthcare industry. | Mangione was also apparently emboldened by seeing the pain his mother went through in battling neuropathy. He allegedly reached the point where his own debilitating pain, compounded by his mother's, drove him to lash out at the person he saw as the embodiment of their suffering: the CEO of his mother's healthcare provider, UnitedHealthcare. | At the beginning of the year, Mangione's radicalism became apparent when he left a review of Ted Kaczynski's — the Unabomber's — book, writing, "These [healthcare] companies don't care about you … why should we have any qualms about burning them down to survive?" While, in hindsight, such a statement sets off alarm bells, this kind of language is common from the revolutionary Left. | Many left-wingers — and even some on the Right — agree with Mangione's disdain for the healthcare industry and tacitly approve of his violence. Journalist Taylor Lorenz — who was recently fired from the left-wing outlet Vox — lionized the shooter, saying she felt "joy" when Brian Thompson, a husband and father, was gunned down outside his Manhattan apartment. | Others online took to ruthlessly mocking Thompson's death, cracking jokes about him being denied life-saving coverage and celebrating his murder. The shooter's political views that he expressed online have been difficult to label as either right-wing or left-wing — but the Left is the loudest in praising his actions. | Murderous hatred stemming from left-wingers angry about healthcare is nothing new — back in 2015, a Bernie Sanders supporter shot up a GOP congressional baseball practice while yelling, "For healthcare!" | Violence is fair game for many on the Left when systems, or even individuals, are considered to be politically and economically corrupt. Look no further than the George Floyd rioters, who were permitted to burn down entire city blocks, and the many pro-Palestine rioters charged with vandalism and assault. | |
