“He will die, as scheduled, by firing squad, but this event will not be streamed,” Trump added. “That said, the execution may be viewed in person by the immediate families of the victims, if they so choose.”

Right, so we will be allowing the State to kill a man, but we aren't showing it to the world and it's supposed to all be okay now?

Liberal capitalist "morality" is wild y'all

shitlibs, please read first

Yes, it is a good thing not to show this execution. I am not arguing to show it. Trump was bare-minimally right to make this private. My argument is that the State ought not have the power to kill anyone, or more broadly it should stop existing .)

Not free live stream. Instead he'll make it pay per view.

The fact it was considered by government officials shows how much America has fallen under the trump regime.

Peer pressure works!

Don’t mistake this for trump actually caring, either. He’d love for this to happen, and was probably salivating at the thought of trump media ad revenue, and how he could filter all pay per view money directly into his pockets.

This is only getting walked back because the weasels in congress are legitimately terrified of public opinion right now, since trump is sinking their ship. This is just the GOP frantically bailing against the tide, not because trump himself cares or even acknowledges anything other than his own desires.

My little nephew asked me about the execution yesterday. I couldn’t believe it. Apparently other kids were all talking about it.

TACO Thursday

Over details any functional adult should've known immediately - not because the whole fucking idea is unhinged drooling fascist wank material.

Video will still be distributed, I’m sure. Even if it needs to be “leaked.”

It’s disgraceful.

“Just how drunk were you, Hegseth?”

“I…don’t remember.”

“You’re lucky this isn’t a fireable offense.”

This would have been a line in the sand for a lot of people, even supporters of the death penalty.

Theres a difference between thinking that its necessary and celebrating it.

I would 10000% tune in to watch a livestream execution of the current American administration.

Weirdly self aware of him.

Piss pants got scared 'cause he knew if he did it to someone, we'd be doing it to him next.

What a bunch of pussies

The "brutes" will not be "entertained."
