Excerpt:President-elect Donald Trump had a Christmas Day message to those granted clemency by outgoing President Joe Biden— telling them to “go to Hell.” Reigniting his tough-on-crime stance, Trump vowed to reinstate and actively pursue federal executions once he assumes office in less than a month in response to Biden’s decision to commute the sentences of most inmates on federal death row. Trump’s promise signals a return to stricter law-and-order policies, emphasizing accountability and a commitment to reversing what he describes as Biden’s leniency toward the nation’s most dangerous offenders.
One of the main agenda items Trump plans to pursue is the use of the death penalty, promising to go after “rapists, murderers, and monsters.” He refused to “wish a Merry Christmas to those lucky souls.”
