“Opponents of President Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk rallied across the U.S. on Saturday to protest the administration’s actions on government downsizing, the economy, human rights and other issues.

More than 1,200 “Hands Off!” demonstrations were planned by more than 150 groups, including civil rights organizations, labor unions, LBGTQ+ advocates, veterans and elections activists. The protest sites included the National Mall in Washington, D.C., state capitols and other locations in all 50 states.”

Why is this important for LMs case?

Because it is an obvious government overcharge and overreach.

Why is this different than just only protesting for LMs freedom and justice?

When advocating for political prisoners, there is an understandable impulse to center their name and story, to personalize the injustice and demand their immediate release. However, while this approach may feel morally urgent, it carries significant strategic risks. By focusing narrowly on an individual, movements inadvertently provide authorities with a clear target for retaliation. Governments often exploit such cases to discredit broader dissent, painting activists as fringe supporters of a single "criminal" rather than challengers of systemic abuse.

The approach of protesting around the structural overreach that enabled the over charge in the first place, whether that’s unchecked surveillance, judicial corruption, or the criminalization of dissent. Systemic critiques resonate across ideological lines. Those hesitant to defend a specific prisoner may still oppose government corruption or eroded civil liberties, expanding the reach.

In NYC, these are all potential jurors protesting the bigger picture and obvious government overreach on all aspects of the population.

I went to my cities capital protest today, and encouraged voters and those alike to donate to LM defense fund. I had many awesome conversations with people who had no clue about what is happening with his case.

Here's the translation via ChatGPT:

Why I got to see Luigi: I'm currently doing a law-related internship in New York, and I often go in and out of MDC (a detention center) to meet clients. That day, I was there to meet a different client, and I saw Luigi with his legal team in the visiting area. Due to prison regulations, privacy, and professional ethics, I can’t share too many details.

Luigi’s condition:** He had a full beard on both cheeks, and his hair was cut so short that you couldn’t even tell it used to be curly. He was wearing the standard prison uniform. He didn’t look as polished as he did during his court appearances, but he still seemed fairly relaxed — leaning back in his chair with his legs crossed, chatting with his lawyers. Around noon, one of the lawyers bought him some cookies and bread from the vending machine for lunch (the only food allowed). Watching him eat felt kind of heartbreaking [cry emoji]. It looked like they were going to be talking all day — they were already there when I arrived, and still there when I left.

Interaction with Luigi (if you can call it that):** Pic 3 is a snapshot of my thoughts at the time lol. You’re only allowed to bring a laptop into the prison, not your phone, so I only have text records. Later I went into a glass-walled meeting room, leaned against the wall, and stared outside waiting longingly for my client. I had already been waiting for 1–2 hours, and I was in about the state shown in pic 4. Then Luigi passed by on his way back from the bathroom. Maybe he’d never seen a visitor more disheveled than the inmates, or maybe I stood out as possibly the only Asian person there (?) — he kept staring at me as he walked by. I looked at him several times too (but didn’t dare to stare), and before I could decide how to react, he had already walked past.

Why I didn’t greet or encourage him:** First of all, there was a pane of glass between us, and he was just passing by, so there was no real chance to. Subjectively, I was in total inner conflict — should I wave? Give him a thumbs up? Pretend I didn’t recognize him? My mind was a mess but outwardly I just had my arms crossed with a poker face (I regret it, I regret it, don’t scold me [cry emoji]). Plus, the other lawyers present were all calm and didn’t acknowledge him either. Luigi probably had serious matters to discuss and didn’t want to be disturbed. So for all those reasons, I didn’t interact with him further.

Hello! Here are some more posters you can print: https://t.co/qbKQHYRvCP

Love to see how many LM posters have already been put around NYC and other cities. Let's keep going! The more we make our voices heard, the better. Let's keep him relevant.

Here’s an attempt of the mainstream media trying to sane-wash this decision to the public.

He is NOT getting the death penalty in the Southern District of New York, and I’m sure the attorney general talking head knows this. The appellate courts are going to stop it in the off chance he’s convicted since it’s an arbitrary application of the DP that seems to be the result of the healthcare industry lobbying the DOJ.

Fox News is trying to turn this into a left/right issue and it’s dishonest and disgusting.

Dishonorable mention to TMZ for publishing an article today graphically talking about the lethal injection process. Fuck Rupert Murdoch.

After Tuesday’s announcement to seek the death penalty, I’ve felt the urge to be more and more helpful. So after flyering and stickering some of people’s amazing work, I’ve put my heart and soul into creating these posters.

If you like them and want to share, spread and put them in your town here is the link to save the printable version : https://we.tl/t-kYQ9AHryhs

I plan to put some in Brooklyn & Manhattan soon :)

I know this week was hard for everyone, but let’s stay hopeful, spread love and send our best and positive energies to LM and KFA’s team 💚

We got your back in southeast Michigan, brother.

Don't normally reply to spam texts, but made an exception for this one

1. He was previously reported as a missing person. His mom was interviewed by police on 12/7 (two days before his arrest) and while she didn’t identify him in suspect photos she said she “could see him doing something like that”. Source: https://people.com/luigi-mangione-mother-told-fbi-could-see-him-shooting-unitedhealthcare-ceo-8763407

2. TMZ reached out to a news agency to discuss one of the journalists being a suspect. The suspect they named was Sean Morrow, who previously wrote a piece about UHC’s policies that killed his mom. Had Sean not had an alibi, I feel like he’d be framed. Source: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/a-reporter-covered-united-healthcare-tmz-thought-he-might-be-a-killer/ar-AA1vHtNp

3. I don’t think the suspect photos look like him.

4. I believe that once his mom said they “could see him doing that”, they got a warrant to access his phone use and found him at a McDonald’s since he probably used the app to pay. I think they had an undercover cop mention that Luigi looked like the suspect to a cashier to make the story look organic.

5. I also believe the evidence was planted. It’s very unusual to know that prints and DNA match at the time of arrest.

Hello everyone,

I would like to announce that the complete donations and donors data is now available in the dashboard.

https://lookerstudio.google.com/reporting/f8ea035e-9a51-498e-b77c-ec1b971eada0

LM has received over $823k in donations from 24k donors (individuals who have donated more than once are counted more than once in this data).

The average donor donates $33.71. What an amazing impact from so many people who have donated small amounts!

We can see in the chart that the donations started to skyrocket after LM officially accepted the fund.

On a light note to try to make you smile during this hard week, i wanted to share this video of the poster that u/xfancymangox and I have put in Brooklyn on Monday, just in front of Luigi’s Pizza 💚 This place is a few blocks away from MDC.

Has there been any movement by the Judge in PA on the motion to suppress evidence?

Guys, DO NOT use your real names on GiveSendGo!

• If you're selected for this jury and have Reddit on your phone, delete the app immediately.
• Limit your social media exposure — Do NOT use your real names, real photos, or share your location! Stay anonymous.

Why? One slip could compromise the entire case.

The justice system reserves its cruelest contradictions for moments like this: A privileged life that once insulated him from consequence now dangles as bait for prosecutors hungry for a spectacle. They’ll break every rule to condemn him—not because they believe in justice, but because they need the world to believe they’d do it to anyone.

The alleged crime does not fit the charges neither in state nor in the federal jurisdiction.
