President-elect Donald Trump says he'll “vigorously pursue” capital punishment after President Joe Biden commuted the sentences of most people on federal death row partly to stop Trump from pushing forward their executions.

Trump took aim Tuesday at Biden’s decision to commute the sentences of nearly all federal death row prisoners, adding to the backlash in an unprecedented move that has brought both criticism and praise.

Joe Biden believes the death penalty "must stop" at the federal level, except for those guilty of terrorism and mass murder motivated by hate, the White House said.
