More coverage of this insane #atrocity.
#Pentagon officials said on Thursday that the #Army officer convicted in the 2009 #FortHood #shooting would be executed in #public, a practice that ended in the #US nearly a century ago & is most commonly carried out in a handful of countries including #Iran, #NorthKorea & the #Taliban-led government in #Afghanistan.

@Nonilex@masto.ai The theatricality of this administration is unprecedented, and sometimes beyond unwarranted.

@Nonilex@masto.ai 70% of the world's nations have abolished the death penalty. Leave it to trump to double down. He reinstated the federal death penalty in 2017, and is now glorifying it. Live streaming an execution will be the ultimate spectacle. Barbaric. Just barbaric.
