(DCNF)—Fox’s Sean Hannity pressed former Washington Post columnist Taylor Lorenz on Wednesday evening over her comments regarding alleged CEO assassin Luigi Mangione, asking her point-blank what she is “missing.”
In a recent appearance Sunday on CNN, Lorenz received backlash after she said that women supporting Mangione would describe him as “revolutionary,” “handsome” and “smart,” adding that there is a double standard from “media pundits” who criticize the support. While on “Hannity,” Lorenz was first questioned about her defense of Mangione and his supporters.
Lorenz attempted to pivot to her complaints about the healthcare system, which Hannity quickly called out.
“That’s not the topic if you can talk about healthcare. I don’t like the healthcare system either, and a lot of people have experienced frustration like you’re saying. That to me is separate and apart from the debate of praising, calling ‘handsome, smart, intelligent,’ being joyful over the death and assassination of innocent people. That’s what your comments did,” Hannity said.
“Your comments basically put your seal of approval on murder and assassination. I’m trying to understand whether you like this guy, like the way he does business or not. You’re advocating and putting a smiley face on assassination,” Hannity added. “I’m trying to understand what is in your soul that doesn’t understand. He’s a father and a husband here. What are you missing? There seems to be a missing chip with you.”
In December 2024, authorities detained 26-year-old Luigi Mangione in connection with the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in New York City. After officials arrested the alleged assassin, some Democrat activists rallied in support of Mangione with protests and demonstrations.
Following Thompson’s death, Lorenz took to Bluesky, posting a response to Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield after the company released a now-retracted policy to deny claims for certain anesthesia procedures.
“And people wonder why we want these executives dead,” Lorenz wrote.
After receiving backlash online for the post, Lorenz later said in an online blog that it “does not mean people should murder them.”
Lorenz went on to ask Hannity if he wanted to hear her response to his question, saying she would need to speak “in order to explain.”
“I don’t want the rationalization. I want you to think about what you said. Explain what you said,” Hannity responded.
“I know exactly what I said,” Lorenz said. “Again, I’m attempting to right now. So I’d ask you to please give the space and try to listen here. As I said, once again, never did I say I felt joy that this man died.”
“I said, again, that I felt joy that millions of Americans [or] billions of really wealthy Americans and privileged Americans are forced to wake up to the reality that nearly 70,000 Americans die each year due to lack of health insurance,” Lorenz added. “I do feel joyful that that is an issue being talked about.”
Since Mangione’s arrest, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced April 1 that federal prosecutors will pursue the death penalty for the alleged assassin.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
