A conservative plan forĀ Donald Trumpā€™sĀ potential transition into the presidency calls for dozens of prisoners to be executed, according to HuffPost. An 887-page plan by Project 2025, led by the ultra-conservative Heritage Foundation, says that if elected, Trump should make a concerted effort to execute the remaining 40 prisoners on death row. The sectionā€™s author, attorney Gene Hamilton, advised that Trump ā€œdo everything possible to obtain finalityā€ on the current list of people until Congress forces them to stop. Hamilton is the vice president ofĀ America Legal First, a group of former Trump lawyers bent on attacking ā€œwokeā€ companies, headed by Stephen Miller. Trumpā€™s approach to theĀ death penaltyĀ stands in stark contrast to that of PresidentĀ Joe Biden, who has openly opposed theĀ death penalty, but doneĀ littleĀ to move forward legislation to reform or abolish the practice since entering office.

For those of you not in the know Project 2025 is Republicans plan to turn the USA into an authoritarian state.

    Oh I certainly wasnā€™t defending him or the white supremacist community he was a part of.

    I was also tempted to mention Wako and the Davidians.

    My point was, no matter how many guns you have, the machine will always win in a gun fight.
