A new play about Luigi Mangione, the man accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, is sparking outrage. Conservatives say it’s another example of the left glorifying criminals while attacking law enforcement and successful business leaders. The musical reportedly paints Mangione as a “hero” fighting corporate greed, ignoring his alleged cold-blooded assassination of a father of two.
Thompson was shot dead outside a New York hotel last December while attending a healthcare conference. Surveillance video shows a masked gunman firing at him from behind. Police found bullets engraved with the words “delay,” “deny,” and “depose” — a direct jab at insurance companies. Yet this play tries to turn Mangione into some kind of working-class martyr.
Attorney General Pam Bondi called the killing a “premeditated, cold-blooded assassination” and ordered federal prosecutors to seek the death penalty. Meanwhile, Hollywood liberals are rewriting history to paint killers as victims. This toxic narrative undermines our justice system and disrespects Thompson’s grieving family.
The ammunition messages reveal Mangione’s twisted motive — revenge against healthcare providers. But the musical’s creators ignore his radical agenda. Instead, they spin a fairy tale where corporate executives deserve violence. This is exactly the anti-business hatred we see from socialist Democrats attacking American success stories.
While Mangione sits in federal custody awaiting trial, left-wing artists are cashing in on tragedy. The play features song-and-dance numbers about “sticking it to big insurance.” It’s a disgraceful attempt to profit from bloodshed while pushing far-left talking points. Real Americans know you don’t solve policy disputes with bullets.
Some health insurance critics have oddly rallied behind Mangione, cheering his alleged crime as payback for denied claims. The musical fuels this dangerous mindset, teaching young people that violence is acceptable if you disagree with someone. This is cultural rot — and it’s spreading fast through our schools and media.
Sources say the play ends with Mangione’s character giving a speech about “healthcare justice” while surrounded by cheering actors. There’s no mention of Thompson’s widow or children. The left always forgets the real victims when pushing their agenda. They’d rather defend a murderer than honor an entrepreneur who created thousands of jobs.
This Mangione musical isn’t art — it’s propaganda. While President Trump fights to restore law and order, coastal elites keep poisoning minds with stories that hate success. Hardworking Americans see through this charade. We value life, family, and the rule of law. It’s time to cancel this shameful production and focus on supporting victims, not criminals.
