WBIR reporters describe what they witnessed at the attempted execution of Christa Pike, who received two injections of pentobarbital, a lethal drug, and then was transported to a local hospital in Tennessee.

it didn't even occur to me that the government might try to execute someone a second time if they torture the person but fail to kill them during a first botched attempt. truly grotesque and a moral stain upon all involved.

🤯 NEW: Gov. Bill Lee’s death row team has botched a second death row execution in less than five months! This is unprecedented. This is the state’s first attempted execution of a woman in at least 200 years.

Not sure if people know Wakefield was trying to sell a competing measles vaccine when he made up his fraudulent study about the MMR. It was only after that failed (because he is a complete fraud) that he started grifting off opposing all vaccines. It’s all just a grift. Antivaxxers are their marks.

To do this during the worst measles outbreak in 35 years just after 4 Americans have died is pure psychopathy and tells you exactly where he stands on vaccines 🤬🤬🤬

The Trump administration is deliberately withholding and redacting documents that legal residents need to prove their status. Claiming they can't find the documents is bad enough. But to turn them over only after redacting them to the point that they're useless is another level of evil.
