The administration of United States President Donald Trump has announced plans to expand the use of the federal death penalty, including through the deployment of firing squads.
The announcement on Friday was part of a policy document issued by the Department of Justice, setting out the legal argument for various methods of execution.
It touted steps for “restoring and strengthening” the death penalty as integral to the pursuit of justice.
“The Department of Justice acted to restore its solemn duty to seek, obtain, and implement lawful capital sentences — clearing the way for the Department to carry out executions once death-sentenced inmates have exhausted their appeals,” the Justice Department said in a news release.
also that countries that work to reduce violence like this and disparity is actually advancing. theory crafting societies of violence is just never going to work out in any long term way.
This is why I am disinclined to believe in secret government conspiracies. None of the actions of the current administration are clever or indicative of a larger long-term strategy, they’re all short-term plans that mostly exist so they can feel big and important when they announce them, rather than because they will necessarily achieve anything.
Secret conspiracies definitely exist but I agree this particular administration is too inept to keep anything under wraps.
I think they are likely but not like theories have them. Mostly bad action. The larger the more we know. I mean we know a ton about crazy crap they want to do currently. Not so much hidden as denied. Lots of illegal institutional activities.
