It seems to me that when there’s a need to give members of a firing squad “plausible deniability” then it’s because someone on the squad knows it’s unethical to participate in the first place and therefore makes one more argument in favor of eliminating the death penalty altogether.

Packing the court would require only slightly less cooperation from congress than an Amendment.

When A party convinces people to stay home instead of voting for a presidential candidate they frequently also convince people to stay home instead of voting down-ballet.

I call bs. Mississippi isn’t even listed in the screenshot and on further inspection they aren’t even ranked in the bottom 5.

My guess is that their PR team is trying to drum up extra viewership after a Chief Producer and key staff members recently quit.
