Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche announced Friday that the DOJ will add firing squads, electrocution, and gas asphyxiation to federal execution methods, citing difficulty obtaining lethal injection drugs. The announcement is verified by multiple major news outlets and the official DOJ statement. The post omits context: only three inmates currently sit on federal death row after Biden commuted 37 sentences, and no federal execution has ever used firing squad despite the method being available in five states.
