Breaking: Luigi Mangione’s full manifesto, ‘The Real One,’ consisting of 262 pages, has been RELEASED. I just read it, and the last line hit the hardest: ‘It’s not about awareness but power, and I am the first to face it. This wouldn’t have happened if we had…’ – Full manifesto and details inside.

The full manifesto of Luigi Mangione, who is facing charges for the shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, has been published.

The three-page document was released by independent journalist Ken Klippenstein on his Substack blog, and later confirmed to be a legitimate transcription by law enforcement authorities.

In the handwritten manifesto, Mangione claims that he was acting alone and that he apologized “for any strife of traumas” that his actions had caused.

According to Klippenstein, parts of the document are unintelligible due to Mangione’s handwriting.

The manifesto was found on Mangione when he was arrested at a McDonalds in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on Monday.

Luigi Mangione’s Manifesto

“To the Feds, I’ll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn’t working with anyone.

“This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience.

“The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there.

“I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done.

“Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy.

“United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but [h]as our life expectancy?

“No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allowed them to get away with it.

“Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain.

It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.”

Newsweek contacted law authorities in New York for more information on the proceedings against Mangione via email.

Along with the manifesto, prosecutors in Pennsylvania said that Mangione was also carrying fake identification and money on him when he was arrested.
