+++ USA +++: Trump attackiert Nobelpreiskomitee und Norwegen wegen Friedenspreises

Trump has attacked the Nobel Committee and Norway over the Peace Prize. The Pentagon confirmed on Thursday that the planned execution of convicted Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan will be streamed live on the U.S. military base in Texas. Details of the transmission are yet to be announced. Hasan is set to be executed on December 3 at 1 PM local time.

President Donald Trump approved the death sentence on October 2. Hegseth told the conservative radio station Real America's Voice that the execution will be public and that people can watch it. The Pentagon clarified that this refers to a live transmission. Hasan, a former military psychiatrist, killed 13 people and wounded 32 others in an attack at Fort Hood in 2009.

A military court sentenced him to death in 2013. Should the execution take place, it would be the first execution by the U.S. military since 1961 and the first killing of a U.S. soldier by a firing squad since World War II. "This is an outrageous and incredibly serious situation," Mamdani said, calling President Donald Trump to discuss the incident.

He plans to ask Trump to stop all ICE enforcement actions in our city. He will not stand by and watch ICE terrorize people in our neighborhoods. ICE has not responded to a request for comment from Reuters. New York police reported gunfire around 4 PM local time in the Bronx, with immigration officials reportedly involved. Federal agencies are investigating the incident.

Reports of water supply issues, clogged toilets, and increasing mental strain among personnel due to various grievances have led to criticism. In some cases, personnel have attempted to jump overboard, according to their family members. The military denies the most serious allegations. The execution is scheduled for December 3 at Fort Hood in Texas.

Hasan killed 13 soldiers and wounded 32 others at the military base in 2009. He was convicted of murder in 2013 and sentenced to death. Public executions were used as a deterrent in the U.S. during the 19th century American Civil War. The last such execution by a firing squad took place in 1945. The last general public execution in the U.S. was in 1936, when a man was hanged before thousands of spectators in Kentucky.

It remains unclear whether Hegseth plans a similar public execution or merely the presence of selected witnesses and individuals or a transmission. The Trump administration has blocked software giant Microsoft from participating in a green card program for employees who have entered the country on work visas. The administration accused Microsoft of fraud, stating that for every worker Microsoft laid off, it allegedly replaced them with one and a half foreign contract workers.

Vice President JD Vance made this claim at a White House press conference. The program targets employees who entered the U.S. with an H-1B visa, which is popular among Trump supporters who view it as detrimental to American workers and accuse companies of abusing it.
