Hegseth says Fort Hood shooter's execution will be made public

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that the public will be able to witness the execution of Nidal Hasan, the ex-Army major convicted of killing 13 people at Fort Hood in 2009. The execution, scheduled for December 3rd, will be carried out via a firing squad, which Hegseth believes is appropriate for such a heinous crime. Speaking with Jack Posobiec on Real America's Voice, Hegseth emphasized that the public's awareness of the consequences for such acts is crucial.

The early December execution will take place at Fort Hood at 1 p.m., as previously reported. The decision to execute Hasan was approved by the Trump administration, with Hegseth and President Trump endorsing the use of an Army firing squad. Hasan, a former Army psychiatrist, was found guilty of the 2013 shooting, which also resulted in over 30 injuries.

This marks the military's first execution of an American service member since 1961 and the first firing squad execution in the U.S. since 2010.
