AP Exclusive: New dates set to begin federal executions
By MICHAEL BALSAMO

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department has set new dates to begin executing federal death-row inmates following a monthslong legal battle over the plan to resume the executions for the first time since 2003.

Attorney General William Barr directed the federal Bureau of Prisons to schedule the executions, beginning in mid-July, of four inmates convicted of killing children. Three of the men had been scheduled to be put to death when Barr announced the federal government would resume executions last year, ending an informal moratorium on federal capital punishment as the issue receded from the public domain.

The Justice Department had scheduled five executions set to begin in December, but some of the inmates challenged the new procedures in court, arguing that the government was circumventing proper methods in order to wrongly execute inmates quickly.

The department wouldn’t say why the executions of two of the inmates scheduled in December hadn’t been rescheduled.

1. He is pure evil. nt

[Demovictory9]

14. he is beyond evil

[grumpyduck]

2. Another distraction for the MSM?

18. Absolutely

You hit the nail on the head. Trump's administration must really be feeling like they are losing their battle. There will be more to follow I am sure.

[Alex4Martinez]

3. At least he's consistent in his evil. nt

[Newest Reality]

4. Those ghouls...

Those ghouls need more blood sacrifices.

If this keeps up they will be performing sacrifices at the Lincoln Memorial where they rip the beating hearts out of virgin's chests and hold them up for the MAGAts to marvel at.

Blood lust. Satiate the beasts.

[Cracklin Charlie]

5. They will not stop

Until we all are dead.

[soothsayer]

6. "Law & Order" that drumpf tweets randomly?

Red meat for his base?

Ugh.

[greatauntoftriplets]

7. So what's the rush?

Seems like this regime's negligence has killed enough people over the last few months.

[spanone]

8. evil fucking cabal.

[gratuitous]

9. Quick review

In the last couple of weeks, Trump has used the body of George Floyd, a bible, 38 million unemployed, the graduating class at West Point, and now death row inmates as props for his campaign.

10. Since we're headed back down this road,

I look forward to the treason trials for trump, barr, and the others who attempted to destroy this nation.

Live by the sword.... yada yada...

11. I guess cops killing people on the streets were just too spontaneous for his taste

Barr likes slow, organized killings, too. Makes for a little variety. The recent lynchings must have inspired him.

[Bayard]

12. Set for December

Wouldn't having them on xmas day be festive?

[Captain Zero]

16. So they can whip up campaign hysteria with it all fall ?? welcome back Willie Horton.

Trump is going to campaign with the new, updated Willie Horton ad.
Watch.

He has already started the Law and Order candidate crap
No other president will execute these criminals !!
Neither will Biden !!


Promise it as red meat for scare tactics all through the fall campaign.... They are going to try.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

13. Hmmm. I wonder what part of the

"Thou shalt not kill" commandment is ambiguous.

Oh, that's right. It only applies to the unborn. Not those already here. So sorry.

[Xolodno]

15. Betcha Trump ordered it because someone told him he would look good...

...being tough on crime. And get some of the base he lost.

Reality is, this will be tied up in courts for so long, some will die of old age. And it will cost a shit load of money in the process.

17. You can see where they're going with this

And don't think for a moment that I have any sympathy or defence for child killers.
