Scot Bertram | Pam Bondi Recieves Death Threats after Seeking Death Penalty for Luigi Mangione

Here are 3 big things you need to know—

 

One —   U.S. stock futures are on the decline ahead of a new trading week on Wall Street.  Dow Jones Industrial, S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures all fell roughly four percent Sunday.  Things haven't been much better overnight, with Dow futures having lost around 13-points - or more than three percent.  This comes after the Dow saw back-to-back losses of over 15-hundred points for the first time ever last week, while the S&P took a six-percent nosedive Friday, the worst since March 2020.

 

Two ----   Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel has joined a coalition of 19 attorneys general in suing President Trump over his executive order on voting restrictions.  The lawsuit was filed in U.S. District Court in Massachusetts and says voting restrictions are not authorized by the U.S. Constitution or by Congress.  Nessel says Trump's order is trying to force state election officials to impose overly burdensome proof of citizenship requirements when people register to vote. 

 

And number three ---- U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi says that she has received death threats for seeking the death penalty against Luigi Mangione. Mangione, accused of killing the CEO of UnitedHealthCare, has pleaded not guilty to state murder and terrorism charges.  His defense attorney has said the allegations were brought by a lawless Justice Department that is being guided by a political decision to seek the death penalty.
