Summary
President Joe Biden commuted the sentences of 37 federal death row inmates to life without parole, sparing all but three convicted of high-profile mass killings.
Biden framed the decision as a moral stance against federal executions, citing his legal background and belief in the dignity of human life.
Donald Trump criticized the move as senseless, vowing to reinstate the death penalty.
Reactions were mixed: some victims’ families condemned Biden, while others supported his decision. Human rights groups praised it as a significant step against capital punishment.
I guess, continued explanations of why the politics are failing in America. Average citizen, “ok he pardoned more than his son, great. Oh he believes in the dignity of human life (strange way to put it but ok). He decided to leave 3 to die? Umm ok.”
It’s the same shtick with the “build back america greater” infrastructure bill. It all sounds great for the media till you actually scrutinize it. “Oh you’re wanting to spend how much on highspeed rail? Great! Oh, it’s all going to a shady company that has the countries worse rail record and has been lining everyone’s pockets financially but running a deficit since operation? umm ok?”
