Reasonable people may disagree over whether or not capital punishment promotes justice and the public interest better than lifetime imprisonment.
Nonetheless, one cannot dispute the fact that President Joe Biden lacks the moral and cognitive capacity to make such judgments.
In a statement released Monday, the White House announced that Biden had commuted the sentences of 37 out of 40 total inmates on federal death row, including criminals convicted of carjacking, kidnapping, and murder.
“Those individuals will have their sentences reclassified from execution to life without the possibility of parole,” the statement read.
Of course, the White House provided only a list of those who had their sentences commuted. That list included each individual’s name and registration number but no information about the crimes they committed.
