Luigi Mangione gunned down an innocent man and father of two young children outside a Manhattan hotel, an act caught on camera and accompanied by a manifesto, revealing a premeditated execution

Murdering businessmen on a public street in broad daylight evokes the worst days of terror riddled societies like the Red Brigades in Italy. But even then, no one in government was coming to their defense.

The irony is Democrats like Elizabeth Warren are deflecting the catastrophic failures of Obamacare onto those forced to institute it.

‘The law is the same for everyone’: Macron addresses Le Pen verdict for first time and criticises threats against judges – as it happened | Europe– www.theguardian.com

Excerpt:

French President Emmanuel Macron has commented for the first time since Marine Le Pen was found guilty of embezzlement and barred from running in France’s next presidential election.

Opening a weekly meeting of French ministers, Macron addressed the court’s decision by recalling the three things government spokesperson Sophie Primas said.

They were “that the judiciary is independent”, “that the threats made against judges are absolutely unbearable and intolerable”, and that “the law is the same for everyone”, Politico reports.

Macron also stated that “all defendants have the right to legal recourse,” Primas said.

A torrent of online abuse has been directed at Bénédicte de Perthuis, the judge who presided over the Paris court on Monday.

While far-right politician Marine Le Pen vowed to appeal the conviction she was handed on Monday, the judge who presided over her case has faced a torrent of intimidating online reactions.

Bénédicte de Perthuis, the judge who sentenced Le Pen for embezzling EU funds and barred her from running in France’s 2027 presidential election, was placed under police protection on Monday night over alleged death threats she received, domestic press reported.

The fiery fallout came her way as some took offence at what they claim is political revanchism — despite de Perthuis herself emphasising that the role of the court and her as a judge was to treat Le Pen’s case like any other.

“Equality before the law is a pillar of democracy. Elected officials enjoy no impunity,” said de Perthuis on Monday, before she issued a judgment, which she had worked on with two other high-profile judges.

Even as President Trump’s approval on the economy slips, his support on immigration remains strong.  Americans solidly approve of his mass deportations policy, knowing full well that millions of people were allowed to enter the country illegally under the Biden administration.  Millions of convicted and accused criminals, as well as people with standing deportation orders, are among them.  Quite frankly, these numbers are a good start, but they’re just a start, given what the new president’s team and inherited and the enormity of the resulting task at hand:

Deportations by Immigration and Customs Enforcement surged above 100,000 since President Trump returned to the White House in January — as he maintains his promise to boot illegal migrants, alleged gangbangers and suspected terrorists from the United States, The Post has learned. ICE officials have made 113,000 arrests and carried out “north of” 100,000 deportations since Trump’s Jan. 20 inauguration, a Department of Homeland Security source told The Post Monday. “He’s doing what he was voted in to do. Point blank!” an ICE source said. It wasn’t immediately clear how many detainees are convicted criminals, the status of their cases and their national origins — though sources believe the majority are being removed to Mexico. ICE has since “maxed out” its detention space and is asking Congress to fund additional beds to support the Trump administration’s deportation campaign that yielded 32,000 arrests in its first 50 days.

‘It’s A Turnout Game’: Scott Jennings Gives GOP Blunt Advice About ‘Lower-Propensity Voters’– dailycaller.com

Excerpt:

Republican strategist Scott Jennings said the GOP would need to adapt to its new voter coalition following election results Tuesday night that were mixed for the party’s fortunes.

Republican candidates held two vacant House seats in Florida by solid margins that were still less than half of those President Donald Trump secured there in the 2024 presidential election. Jennings noted that Republican voters “turn out at lower rates,” particularly with special elections.

“It’s a turnout game. And this is a condition of the Republican Party that it’s true, we now have a party that’s made up of lower-propensity voters. They tend not to vote when Donald Trump’s not on the ballot,” Jennings said on CNN. “They turn out at lower rates, especially when elections are happening at odd times. And this is an issue the party is going to have to grapple with.”

Susan Crawford beats Brad Schimel: Why Wisconsin Supreme Court loss was personal for Elon Musk | World News– timesofindia.indiatimes.com

Excerpt:

In a closely watched and historically expensive election, liberal Judge Susan Crawford defeated conservative Brad Schimel to secure a 10-year term on the Wisconsin Supreme Court, preserving the court’s narrow liberal majority. This outcome not only represents a significant victory for Democrats but also a deeply personal and strategic defeat for billionaire Elon Musk, who invested millions into the race in an attempt to sway its outcome.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court race shattered records as the most expensive judicial election in US history, with Musk pouring over $21 million into Schimel’s campaign. Much of this funding came through Musk’s America PAC, a political action committee he established to support former President Donald Trump. Musk’s contributions included direct financial backing for Schimel and controversial cash incentives for voters—offering $100 for signing petitions and $1 million checks to select individuals. Despite these efforts, Crawford emerged victorious, securing the liberal majority on the court with national implications for issues such as abortion rights, labour laws, and electoral redistricting.

Susan Crawford, who was endorsed by the Democratic Party, won the closely-watched Wisconsin Supreme Court race Tuesday night in what was the most expensive judicial election in American history.

What would have normally been a sleepy nonpartisan judicial race turned into an expensive battle between Crawford, a Dane County judge, and Waukesha County Judge Brad Schimel, who was endorsed by the Republican Party. The campaigns and their supporters have spent more than $81 million, attracting endorsements and campaign appearances from Elon Musk, Vermont Democratic Sen. Bernie Sanders and other national political figures.

With 91% of the vote in, Crawford led Schimel by 54% to 45%, a margin of about 184,000 votes.
