  "account": "President Trump announced on Thursday that the execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan will not be broadcast live, a move made following backlash from his administration over the Pentagon's initial plan to permit public viewing of Hasan's death by firing squad. Trump expressed his support for the deterrent effect of such a spectacle, acknowledging that many well-meaning individuals would prefer not to witness the execution, either live or through any visual medium. The execution is scheduled to take place by firing squad at 1 p.m. on December 3rd at the Texas Army installation, with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth confirming the details earlier in the month.",
  "summary": "\"He will die, as scheduled, by firing squad, but this event will not be streamed,\" President Trump wrote on Truth Social.",
