    A top donor to Luigi Mangione’s legal defense fund cited President Donald Trump’s executive order on the death penalty as their reason for giving.

    President Donald Trump ordered the attorney general to pursue the death penalty “for all crimes of a severity demanding its use” in an executive order signed January 20. The order ended the moratorium on federal executions enacted by former President Joe Biden’s administration.

  2. None of corporate media is currently covering how the CEO allowed for record claim denial rates and was being investigated for insider trading

  3. If you are in support of the death penalty, you have way too much trust in your government to never get it wrong.

  4. The pro life party ladies and gents

    Edit: oof this must be true because I seemed to have upset the pro life people lol

  5. President now orders death sentences ….✔️

  6. Still less than a month in. Why not engage in sentencing citizens to death.

  7. GOP: the government and courts are completely corrupt and I don’t trust anything they say or do.

    Also I want the government to execute more people

  8. Trump is a sociopath who wants to kill people so badly. He will absolutely start a war if given even half a chance.

  9. Dude *allegedly* shot one person dead. Is everyone who shoots another get a death penalty, or only those who kill rich people?

    [Edit: added “allegedly“]

  10. Trump literally just freed mayor Adams what a hypocrite

  11. Hold up: wouldn’t this be grounds for a mistrial? Like they are going to have a hard enough time getting a jury together

  12. And here I thought this was the pro-life party.

  13. Didn’t he just say doing anything to save your country is lawful?

  15. “He who saves his country does not break any laws”

  16. Maga: juries lie!

    Also maga: supports capital punishment

  17. USA is the only civilised country to still have the death penalty and NOT have public healthcare.

    And the last 4 weeks have shown that USA may not be as civilised as we may have believed.

  18. I just realized that with Trumps waves of EO, he can essentially be judge, jury and executioner of any private citizen.

  20. Once again …. Trump and clan like creating smoke and mirrors so people , like you and me get hooked in the minor stuff while they take your wallet with diversion , SMOKE AND MIRRORS EVERYWHERE… BEWARE

  21. He’s sending a message to anyone who threatens the oligarchy. Man of the people.

  22. One of the things that the death penalty applies to is treason, just saying.

  23. Death penalty ” for all crimes of a severity, demanding its use”, meaning whenever you feel like it??

  24. Trump caused deaths January 6th. So by that logic… 🤔

  26. Have they expressed any sort of rationale as to why this would be a federal murder case and not simply a state one? Or is it just another “because I said so” thing?

  27. “The government is incompetent and has too much power”

    Also: “I think the government should be allowed to kill its citizens”

  28. Reading “Donald Trump death penalty” got me way too excited for a second.

  29. Don’t get too distracted by individual cases. This is a pretext by Trump to begin rounding up his political opponents over the next 3 years.

  30. I feel like this is a slam dunk for a perpetual mistrial.

  31. “For all crimes of a severity demanding its use” easily includes the unlawful and traitorous gutting of our government and the serving up of our national secrets to our enemies

  32. Oh, gosh, the death penalty is only for the peons who take action against the wealthy. How many people did United Healthcare sentence to death by denying them coverage?

  33. If he’s given the death penalty, all they’re going to do is turn him into a martyr.

  35. Trump must be stopped, and Musk They only represent themselves and the richest of society they are murdering this man for standing up against injustice and a system that makes profits out of misery if America is the richest country in the world it should have free healthcare.

  36. And this right here, this EO is why I am not angry at Biden for giving out all of those pardons. You know his son, Fauci and the others were going to be on the literal chopping block now if it wasn’t for those pardons.

  37. United Healthcare recently denied one of my claims for treating breast cancer. I had a tracker placed where my tumor was so that they could find and remove the tissue in surgery. I was denied for the tracker placement but approved on the surgery. How the fuck do you deny something that needs to be done in order to do a surgery that was approved? Make it make sense. So now I have to spend time figuring it out and appealing or whatever. As if having cancer wasn’t enough of a fucking hassle. Fuck UHC. Fuck healthcare insurance as a whole. Free Luigi, he’s the hero we need.

  38. President Donald Trump ordered the attorney general to pursue the death penalty “for all crimes of a severity demanding its use.” Who decides if the severity demands its use? Maybe the 25+ women he’s allegedly sexually assaulted, including the 15 year old girl he raped? Would mounting an insurrection and urging an armed mob to storm the Capitol in an attempt to overturn the results of an election or sharing state secrets with foreign enemies count?

  39. trump wants the death penalty for his enemies so HE can pull the trigger

  40. Honestly I think my favorite part of republican doctrine is the fierce hostility toward women having the ability to choose in favor of all life is sacred but to then turn that on its head and be so supportive of the death penalty.
    It’s like they just straight up tell you their a hypocrite.

  41. The president determines what punishment that district attorneys will pursue? When did that start? Feels like that ought to be the real story here, Newsweek. 

  42. A school shooter has never faced the death penalty in the United States. Priorities.

  43. He’s trying to scare people into not following in Luigi’s footsteps.

  44. Hmm. Death penalty for his “crime”. Remind me Donald, what is the penalty for treason?

  45. Beyond the obviously dictatorial undertones here…

    Jan 6th rioters either directly or indirectly killed multiple police officers, threatened the lives of many government officials, and ultimately attacked our democracy at large. They get pardoned.

    One man shoots a member of the 1%. He deserves the death penalty.

    Just clarifying where our president’s priorities lay. He’s saying the quiet part out loud.
