of the things they are trying to do is go from business to business and we saw this in the luigi mangionevestigation for example, you can imagine there's a ton of cameras on bourbon street, some of them are public but, going from business to business and determine these two other potential devices that they have found, where are they specifically and did anybody actually placed them there? that is something they will take a look at. so far what they have told us, they have seen people near these possible ied's but they don't know whether they are looking at them and maybe they look suspicious, or they involved in the placing of these, and that is one of the things investors are looking at. the press conference earlier today, they said shamsud-din jabbar did not act alone, there's not a specific manhunt for john doe number one, john doe number two, they are not looking for a specific person at this point, that of course could change, by the way, it could also change as we go back to a posture of this individual who was behind the wheel of the truck acting alone as well in all of this. it j

when we look at mangione shooting, the ceo of u.s. health care, he was functioning and operating by himself. this appears to be one in the same, in that we had a lone wolf attack. so this becomes very challenging. and so what law enforcement is going to do is a backwards investigation to find out. and we're going to start at the scene of the crime, and we're going to go into a cell phone. of course, the traditional methods that law enforcement deploy. but to see where he purchased these firearms, what was his ideology online, and hopefully that can assist for us to understand what the what the means or why he actually did this horrific act. >> and of course, the sugar bowl is supposed to be there tonight. what do you think, juliette? do you think it should go on? >> yes. i mean, for two reasons. i mean, one is we are. it sounds horrible, but there we've learned to adapt. there is an incident, a horrible incident that happened in one part of the city. and i say that it should go on for two reasons. one is is based on the assurances so

and you mentioned the contract on mangione and the contract was listed for a while and was pulled, but my point is, as every day goes by, it is very important, i think, for my successor to think about the origins of the agency and the origins and the reasons for the products that exist. and you mentioned this, you know, our markets date back to the 18th-- to the 19th century, the 1850's in chicago. chicago board of trade, where you're trading agricultural futures so that farmers can manage risk. that has obviously ballooned and expanded into a variety of commodities that are extremely important to everyday life, whether, again, it's interest rates, credit, fx or any other financial instrument on top of agriculture, metals. we need to innovate and evolve this is my thesis on crypto, but ultimately there are social issues we have to contemplate as the contracts start to go into areas that are not clearly delineated in statute and would and could have a negative impact in terms of incentive and disincentives for market users. one of my cases for the election why i oppose these, one, it's

the suspect, luigi mangione.[suspenseful music continues] is there anything you can think of looking back that now kind of makes the light bulb go off on what he is alleged to have done?

[cheers and applause] go get 'em, tiger."alling here. but yes, biden used his last speech as president to warn us about a new american oligarchy. and you can tell the message hit home because of how many people -- and this is true -- immediately went to google to search "what is oligarchy?" and weirdly, google responded: "don't worry about it." turns out, you don't need to google "oligarchy" to understand what it looks like. just tune in to the inauguration this monday. >> nbc news is now reporting that elon musk, jeff bezos, and mark zuckerberg will all three attend donald trump's inauguration next week. >> the ceos of apple and google will be there. >> sam altman from openai. >> tiktok ceo shou chew. >> he was invited to sit on the dais where former presidents and family traditionally sit. >> jordan: ooh! that is right. facebook's at the inauguration, google, amazon. the ceo of zoom will be there wearing a suit top, short bottoms. the ceo of uber will be there in two minutes -- maybe five minutes! you know what, they are lo

very, very bad but especially to one of the worst people on the planet and george soros, was luigi mangioneilable. who will begin the metal to which is worthless. it's a slap in the face to people who simply want district attorneys to do their job. george soros gave millions of dollars to district attorney like alvin bragg in new york in george soros doctrine do not enforce the laws on the books. look at jamar banks he's been arrested 87 times including aggravated assault, real crime yet george soros back d.a. alvin bragg put them back on the street and this guy actually step two people on the subway this week including one in the back. biden wants to award a monster like george soros. a metal in the civilian honor that you can get, 14 days until donald trump gets into office. many with common sense in this country that cannot come quickly enough when joe biden is doing the sort of thing on his way out the door. >> i wanted bring this up lionel messi also has the message he skipped the ceremony didn't send anybody to pick it up for him. why would they pick line all messi in the first base?

and now, luigi mangione has plead not guilty to 11 charges, and that is as of last week, and now he is terrorism charges, but the case separate from the actual cause for the vigilante style attacks on people, the case, itself, it has really brought to the fore much deeper and larger conversations of the growing inequality in america, and that is beginning with the health care system, and it does not end there. there are people who are working in the industry now who are using this moment to speak out. a former executive writing in this new york time's piece said that what he saw made him quit a while back. that is william potter who worked for cigna in the corporate communication, and he said it is about suppressing basically these very critiques in the industry that puts, quote, profits above patients. and much of the discussion that began with the sort of the initial debate about, well, murder is wrong, and murder is murder, and killing someone in broad daylight is wrong, and that piece of it which goes to law and order and crime quickly morphed into a larger conversation of even if

luigi mangione is the loser who allegedly shot the united health care ceo.is also accused of larceny after stealing those eyebrows from a greek cabdriver.

that was very much true with luigi mangione. we saw that in a different way. who this perpetrator is. obviously, he was shot dead by police, according to your reporting here. what do you make of, we're going to be seeing video and photos that will give us a better idea of how this guy drove into the french quarter and how much planning perhaps went into this. >> yeah. they're going to be able to retrace his steps, right before he got in the car, when he got into that truck and exactly the route he took to go right over there to bourbon street. that's the part that's going to be interesting to see. not just the social media, because there are so many videos that we're piecing through, trying to see what we can confirm. you can see the car go around and people hurt or looking for friends in that chaos. this is an area with bars that have the best security and surveillance cameras. that will help police piece this together. they'll have to put a motive together. all people care about if they srpb heard from families is where are they, are they okay and how many o

that continues to astound me, and think about this, it took days last month to track down luigi mangionese hours this week to identify the man who blew himself up in a cybertruck, but authorities are not even sure if this is a man or a woman, and in fact, with just weeks before donald trump taking office, and the promise of pardoning the insurrection, the fbi is asking the american public for help, they released never before seen footage of the suspect sitting on a bench near the dnc, they also announced for the first time the suspect is about five foot seven tall, and the most distinct part of his outfits, the nike air max shoes, they hope it will lead to fresh tips from the public. >> i'm sure that there are people who know who this suspect is and we would ask them to call us. just because they didn't go off doesn't mean they weren't intended to go off, that could have seriously injured somebody or killed someone. >> the fbi's renewed focus is a good reminder that as bad as january 6 was, it could have been worse and also a stark reminder that donald trump was not the only person to es

protesters in times square tonight, and you wonder if this coupled with the people cheering luigi mangione for shooting the unitedhealth ceo, if it normalizes some violence and leads to somebody from isis going into the french quarter and killing 15 and then brinjuring dozens. >> i would go further. more than normalizing it, it glamorize it. beside on the campus is here last year where the cause morphed into something that was something to aspire to, to get arrested, to fight with the police. it was something they give you bragging rights. they also know, the people doing that, that there's going to be no sanction. because of alvin bragg and some of the other prosecutors we have here, they're going to be right back out on the streets, so there's really no deterrent. isn't that something to see, on the same day that we had this horrific event in new orleans, a crowd that size in new york's times square demonstrating the favorite of the intifada? and i'm speaking irrespective of where you come down on in that conflict. the bottom line is the gatherings are not legal, they are not permanent.

luigi mangione faces murder and terrorism charges in connection to the shooting following the crime. several companies took precautions to protect their head executives and ceos by removing their photos from company websites and increasing security measures at company facilities. the jp morgan healthcare conference returns to san francisco next year. the company's 2025 conference wrapped up a week ago and has widely seen was widely seen as a success with tens of thousands of visitors coming to the city. the conference generated nearly 100 million dollars in economic impact for san francisco. the mayor, daniel lurie, he's issued a statement about the conference's return saying, quote, we're thrilled that the jp morgan conference is coming back next year. well, we still have work to do. this is a huge vote of confidence in our city and everything we are doing to make san francisco a safe and welcoming place for residents, businesses and visitors. still ahead on kron 4 news at noon. he's making and breaking records. steph curry incentives to make. >> nba history. plus pandemonium in our

last december, 26 year old luigi mangione, fed up with the health care system in america, stalked andian thompson, thereby raising awareness of the problem of insurance companies denying people's claims. and lord knows that is a problem. people are justifiably sick and tired of paying through the nose, only to get the runaround in a mountain of forms to fill out. and yes, infuriating claim denials based on petty technicalities. something, by the way, that is increasingly now done by a robot programmed to find a way to fuck you in the ass, which is not covered. >> look, we've. >> all been there. ever get a prescription filled? and they say that'll be $1 million. please. and you say, is there an alternative? and they say, oh, yeah, there's one that's basically the same for ten bucks. i didn't mention it because it didn't seem like something people would be interested in. or how about when health care providers put on the bill something they know is already covered, just to see if you'll pay it anyway, because they have the ethics of a nigerian prince emailing you for a loan to every. do

interesting the biden justice department evidently made a deal with bragg that new york could go first on mangione and then the feds would go. i would be very surprised if the trump justice department feels like they have to honor that deal. >> i hate to use the word collusion but pam bondi, todd blanch, kash pat elf they are confirmed will find out if there was collusion between bragg and garland to bring the case in state court. if there was collusion we'll know about it in about three months. >> john: more notes from inside the courtroom. judge merchan in says the trump trial was no different than all of the other criminal trials in the building. merchan attempting to create equivalents between trump and ordinary criminals and won the presidency and how it is in fact different. andy, you want to tackle that one. the trump case is no different than any other case that comes into his courtroom. >> i think it is different because the defendant is in the courtroom. alvin bragg's new york that doesn't often happen. we have criminals who commit very serious crimes who never actually get charged and n
