Summary
Trump vowed to direct the DOJ to “vigorously” pursue the death penalty for violent offenders after Joe Biden commuted the sentences of 37 federal death row inmates.
Biden’s decision, aimed at halting federal executions, drew mixed reactions: victims’ families expressed both support and anger, while death penalty opponents urged Biden to extend clemency further.
Trump criticized the commutations as undermining justice and pledged a return to “Law and Order” during his presidency, reigniting debate over capital punishment.
He probably wants to do what his disgusting saudi prince piece of shit friend does and make executions public
You’re actually not wrong
He is emulating dictators and has been for the past few years
The point isn’t justice. It’s to make people scared to try to overthrow him. Then he can pursue the death sentence and set an example
Actually yes, this is something a lot of GOP hardliners have been crowing about for decades. I remember a decent amount of people who wanted a public hanging for the 9/11 guys.
