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 read them. It’s the same incremental change grassroots bullshit that the DNC has been parroting for my entire 44 years of life. That shit doesn’t work. Community defence clearly does. Quit being a class traitor and class apologist or get out of the way.

      that the DNC has been parroting for my entire 44 years of life

      Imagine thinking anything I said is allied with the DNC. Or that said anything about “incremental”. Imagine reading what I said and then calling me a “class traitor” or “class apologist”. You’re either a bold faced liar, have the reading comprehension and politics understanding of a 4th grader, or your definition of reading is the same as that of people who “enjoy reading dystopian books” but complain about books becoming political.
