On Tuesday, Trump posted on Truth Social, condemning President Joe Biden’s decision to commute the sentences of nearly all federal death row prisoners. 

“As soon as I am inaugurated, I will direct the Justice Department to vigorously pursue the death penalty to protect American families and children from violent rapists, murderers, and monsters. We will be a Nation of Law and Order again!” he posted.

In another post, he criticized Biden for commuting the death sentence of 37 convicted killers. 

“Makes no sense,” Trump posted. “Relatives and friends are further devastated. They can’t believe this is happening!”

On Monday Biden had announced that he would commute the sentences of 37 of the 40 federal inmates on death row to life sentences without the possibility of parole, saying he was “guided by my conscience and my experience as a public defender.”
