The secret to making successful financial New Year’s resolutions

The 26-year-old man charged in last week’s killing of UnitedHealthcare’s CEO appeared in a Pennsylvania courtroom Tuesday, where he was denied bail and his lawyer said he'd fight extradition to New York City, where the attack happened. Luigi Nicholas Mangione was arrested Monday in the Dec. 4 attack on Brian Thompson after police say a worker at a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania, alerted them to a customer who resembled the suspected gunman. When arrested, Mangione had on him a gun that investigators believe was used in the attack and writings expressing anger at corporate America, police said. As Mangione was led into the Hollidaysburg courthouse Tuesday, he struggled with officers and shouted something that was partly unintelligible but referred to an “insult to the intelligence of the American people.” He left hours later without saying anything and was driven away. Mangione is being held on Pennsylvania charges of possession of an unlicensed firearm, forgery and providing false identification to police. Manhattan prosecutors have charged him with five counts, including murder, criminal possession of a weapon and criminal possession of a forged instrument. Wearing an orange jumpsuit, Mangione mostly stared straight ahead during the hearing, occasionally consulting papers, rocking in his chair, or looking back at the gallery. At one point, he began to speak to respond to the court discussion but was quieted by his lawyer. Judge David Consiglio denied bail to Mangione, whose attorney, Thomas Dickey, told the court that his client did not agree to extradition and wants a hearing on the matter. Blair County (Pennsylvania) District Attorney Peter Weeks said that although Mangione will create “extra hoops” for law enforcement to jump through by fighting extradition, it won’t be a substantial barrier to sending him to New York. In addition to a three-page, handwritten document that suggests he harbored “ill will toward corporate America,” NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny said Monday that Mangione also had a ghost gun, a type of weapon that can be assembled at home and is difficult to trace. Officers questioned Mangione, who was acting suspiciously and carrying multiple fraudulent IDs, as well as a U.S. passport, New York Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said. Officers also found a sound suppressor, or silencer, “consistent with the weapon used in the murder,” she said. He had clothing and a mask similar to those worn by the shooter and a fraudulent New Jersey ID matching one the suspect used to check into a New York City hostel before the shooting, the commissioner said. Mangione, who comes from a prominent Maryland family, was valedictorian of his elite Baltimore prep school and had degrees from one of the nation’s top private universities. He earned undergraduate and graduate degrees in computer science in 2020 from the University of Pennsylvania. Mangione's grandfather Nick Mangione, who died in 2008, was a successful real estate developer. One of his best-known projects was Turf Valley Resort, a sprawling luxury retreat and conference center outside Baltimore that he purchased in 1978. One of Luigi Mangione’s cousins is Republican Maryland state legislator Nino Mangione, a spokesman for the lawmaker’s office confirmed. From January to June 2022, Mangione lived at Surfbreak, a “co-living” space at the edge of touristy Waikiki in Honolulu. Josiah Ryan, a spokesperson for owner and founder R.J. Martin, said that Martin had learned that Mangione had severe back pain from childhood that interfered with many aspects of his life. Friends in Hawaii widely considered Mangione a “great guy,” and pictures on his social media accounts show a fit and smiling young man on beaches and at parties. Mangione likely was motivated by his anger at what he called “parasitic” health insurance companies and a disdain for corporate greed, according to a law enforcement bulletin obtained by The Associated Press. He wrote that the U.S. has the most expensive healthcare system in the world and that the profits of major corporations continue to rise while “our life expectancy” does not, according to the bulletin, based on a review of the suspect’s handwritten notes and social media posts. Police said the person who killed Thompson left a hostel on Manhattan's Upper West Side at 5:41 a.m. last Wednesday. Eleven minutes later, he was seen on surveillance video walking back and forth in front of the New York Hilton Midtown, wearing a distinctive backpack. At 6:44 a.m., he shot Thompson at a side entrance to the hotel, fled on foot, then climbed aboard a bicycle and within four minutes had entered Central Park, according to police. Another security camera recorded the gunman leaving the park near the American Museum of Natural History at 6:56 a.m. still on the bicycle but without the backpack, police said. After getting in a taxi, he headed north to a bus terminal near the George Washington Bridge, arriving at around 7:30 a.m. From there, the trail of video evidence runs cold. Police have not located video of the suspect exiting the building, leading them to believe he likely took a bus out of town. Police said they are still investigating the path the suspect took to Pennsylvania. “This just happened this morning," Kenny said. "We’ll be working, backtracking his steps from New York to Altoona, Pennsylvania,” Kenny said.

MSNBC has suffered a major slump in ratings after Donald Trump won the 2024 Presidential Election as conservative Fox continues to gain viewers. The liberal news network saw its audience numbers sink 47 percent in November Since the election Fox's primetime audience commands 3million viewers, while MSNBC picks up 644,000 and CNN has 453,000. MSNBC's Morning Joe show received backlash after its hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski visited Trump's Mar-a-Lago, despite spending years blasting the president-elect and his time in office. The View's Ana Navarro unleashed a blistering on-air tirade on the married hosts, calling their visit to Trump 'opportunistic.' Of the progressive pair, she asked whether the two had 'change[d] their stripes' because of 'who's in power.' The Morning Joe hosts revealed that they had traveled 'personally' to meet Trump on Friday, after openly criticizing him in the weeks, months, and years prior. The reason for the visit, they said, was to 'restart communications' with the Trump administration before the president-elect retakes office. The two also touted a 'new approach' to coverage surrounding Trump's second term, eliciting a fiery response from not only Navarro, but her co-host, Sunny Hostin. Both women said they disapproved of the visit, with Navarro leading the charge. Two major shows featuring anchors Joe Scarborough (left) and Rachel Maddow (right) have tanked in ratings following the election. Scarborough's show saw lower ratings after he visited Mar-a-Lago and Maddow saw a dip after she was called hysterical over a post-election rant Meanwhile, Fox's biggest moneymaker The Five is pulling in 4.4million viewers and the network saw a jump in audience number since the election The MSNBC hosts dismissed the criticism saying it just proves there is a 'massive disconnect' between 'social media and the real world.' 'Yesterday, I saw for the first time what a massive disconnect there was between social media and the real world because we were flooded with phone calls from people all day, literally around the world, all very positive, very supportive: "I understand what you did..."' Scarborough said on Tuesday. 'But once in a while I would get a text or call from someone going: "Oh, man, I hope you're doing okay." I would call them back... I'd go: "Are you on Twitter?" And he goes: "I am." I'd go: "Well I'm not so we've had a good day." 'All of us will do the best we can do and we're all working towards a better America.' In another blow to the network, Anchor Rachel Maddow was mocked for her hysterical monologue after Trump's win. The MSNBC star claimed that the voter turnout for the Republican president-elect was evidence Americans had 'let democracy go' and opted for, a 'strongman, authoritarian system.' Maddow, who's about to sign a new $125 million, five year deal, likened the outcome to those seen in countries such as North Korea, Russia and China as she urged Democrats not to become, 'despondent.' 'Now we can work on being fricking pirates. We can work on being a thorn in the side to anyone who tries to turn this country into some tin-pot tyranny. The View's Ana Navarro unleashed a blistering on-air tirade in response to Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski's surprise visit to Mar-a-Lago However, she was instantly derided online with many viewers calling out her 'hyperbole.' The Wall Street Journal reported Comcast will release a swathe of its NBCUniversal cable TV networks, including MSNBC. Comcast's move to spin off its NBCUniversal networks would have been a staggering move years ago, with its fleet of channels previously among the company's most profitable assets. But the decision would see channels including MSNBC, USA, Oxygen, E!, and Golf Channel branched off onto a separate entity with a separate balance sheet. Comcast executives said that they will not spin off all channels, with Bravo, the Peacock streaming service and the NBC broadcast network remaining under the parent company. By shedding its expensive networks, Comcast is hedging its bets that it can expand its movie studio and theme park industries without being dragged down by the struggles of traditional television news. According to the WSJ's reporting, which broke the story, the new cable venture will have an 'ownership structure that mirrors Comcast's', but 'would likely need greater scale to thrive.' Fox boasted that 'more Independents and Democrats continue to tune in' its network, while the others continue to struggle ahead of Trump's second term Maddow is finalizing a five-year deal to stay on for $25million per year, which is less than her $30million previous contract, according to Puck News . Maddow only works once a week, and despite rating drops, is considered valuable to the network. The network's motivation to keep on their expensive anchor might be to encourage advertisers to invest in the spinoff company, according to Puck News. Meanwhile, Fox's biggest moneymaker The Five is pulling in 4.4million viewers, Jesse Watters Primetime has 3.9million, and The Ingraham Angle has 3.3million.
