President Donald Trump is weighing whether to abandon plans to livestream Nidal Hasan's firing squad execution at Fort Hood, Texas, on 3 December, after House Speaker Mike Johnson warned the footage 'would be a recruiting tool for future terrorists'.
Administration officials were leaning against a live broadcast as of Tuesday, according to people familiar with the discussions. The proposal, announced by Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth last week, has faced objections from senior Republicans. Trump has not announced a final decision.
