Trump says Fort Hood victims' families can attend execution, "deserve to witness JUSTICE!"

Donald Trump has called off a Pentagon proposal to broadcast the December 3 firing-squad execution of Nidal Malik Hasan, who was convicted in the Fort Hood attack that killed 13 people and wounded dozens. The plan quickly drew objections from religious organizations and lawmakers in both parties. In a Thursday Truth Social post, Trump said the execution would still happen but would not be shown online, and he said close relatives of the victims could be present if they wished. Archbishop Paul Coakley, president of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, had criticized the streaming plan.
