In an effort to fulfill President Donald Trump's 2025 executive order to restore the implementation of the death penalty at the federal level, the Department of Justice has decided to bring back a means of execution often associated with a blindfold and a cigarette.

After a moratorium on the death penalty under the Biden administration, the Trump DOJ has reintroduced the traditional firing squad method as well as the lethal injection protocols adopted in Trump's first term.

President Trump has called for the death penalty in specific cases, including the vicious murders of Iryna Zarutska ... and Charlie Kirk.

In a memo released Friday, the DOJ claimed that the purpose of these measures is "to expedite death penalty cases" by "clearing the way for the Department to carry out executions once death-sentenced inmates have exhausted their appeals."

"The prior administration failed in its duty to protect the American people by refusing to pursue and carry out the ultimate punishment against the most dangerous criminals, including terrorists, child murderers, and cop killers," said a statement from acting Attorney General Todd Blanche. "Under President Trump’s leadership, the Department of Justice is once again enforcing the law and standing with victims."

The memo claimed that the Biden administration, under the direction of Attorney General Merrick Garland, refused to implement the death penalty, even when the administration's own attorneys sought it.

Moreover, shortly before leaving office, President Joe Biden commuted the sentences of nearly every inmate on federal death row. The only three whose death sentences Biden did not commute were 2013 Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev; Dylann Roof, who murdered nine people in a black church in 2015; and Robert Bowers, who murdered 11 people at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh in 2018.

The DOJ under Trump is now actively seeking the death penalty against dozens of defendants, including three MS-13 gangsters accused of murdering a federal witness, the memo said. Two of the three are in the U.S. illegally.

The administration is even considering erecting a new execution facility.

Since retaking office, President Trump has called for the death penalty in specific state-level cases, including the vicious murders of Iryna Zarutska in North Carolina on August 22, 2025, and Charlie Kirk in Utah on September 10, 2025.

Several states already use the firing squad. In fact, beginning on July 1, Idaho will become the first state to use the firing squad as its main means of execution, while other states like South Carolina offer it as an option to death-row inmates.

He doesn’t want to allow them to have any place where they feel safe. Even as their children go to school, he wants them hounded, harassed,...

ICE agents have a hard enough time staying safe with leftist politicians trying to defund them, media villainizing them, and rioters threatening them. For months, ICE agents even watched their backs as location-tracking apps pinpointed their every move on the streets, at least until alleged government pressure wiped them from the App Store and Google Play. Unfortunately for ICE, the ban didn’t last long, as a district court judge just ruled their removal unconstitutional, seemingly disregarding the safety of ICE agents while blaming the Trump administration.

The rise and fall of anti-ICE apps

ICE-reporting apps — led by ICEBlock on iOS — popped up online around April 2025, shortly after deportation raids in Democrat-run strongholds earned the ire of politicians, media, and rioters on the left side of the aisle. The apps were billed as a way to report and monitor the location of ICE agents and hold them accountable for “alleged civil rights abuses and failures to adhere to constitutional principles and due process.”

It sounds altruistic, if any of that were true, but it’s ICEBlock’s off-label use cases that make it far more dangerous to the people, government officials, and United States sovereignty.

The next step in deciding the fate of ICE-tracking apps is to take the case to court.

With ICE agent locations marked on a map, apps like ICEBlock gave illegal aliens enough information to hide or flee from law enforcement to avoid deportation. ICEBlock also essentially showed rioters exactly where to go to confront ICE on the street, adding fuel to countless attacks on agents and the deaths of two American citizens.

In October 2025, the Trump administration reportedly sought to ban ICE-tracking apps, noting that they posed a major threat to ICE officials and public safety at large. At the time, former United States Attorney General Pam Bondi said, “ICEBlock is designed to put ICE agents at risk just for doing their jobs, and violence against law enforcement is an intolerable red line that cannot be crossed."

Apple quickly removed ICEBlock from the App Store, prompting the developer, Joshua Aaron, to sue the Trump administration for censorship. Although Apple wasn’t directly implicated in the lawsuit, Aaron added, “We are incredibly disappointed by Apple's actions. Capitulating to an authoritarian regime is never the right move.”

Cue the eyeroll.

Violence against ICE is a real threat

There’s no doubt that Pam Bondi was right about the threats against ICE agents, something we covered extensively at Blaze News. Here are just some of the most egregious stories:

• Anti-ICE mob turns hostile, breaching barriers outside detention facility — several officers injured
• Los Angeles anti-ICE protesters harass DHS agents, military members on Independence Day
• Inside the Portland ICE facility under siege by Antifa extremists
• ICE agents fear for their safety after security fence removed at Chicago-area facility amid sometimes violent protests
• Border Patrol agents dodge bullets and bricks from leftist rioters in sanctuary city: DHS
• VIDEO: Unhinged anti-ICE extremists hurl profanities at agents in Minneapolis: 'Get the f**k out!'

ICE agents aren’t the only ones at risk. Due to increasingly divisive rhetoric by left-wing politicians, agitators took to the streets and threatened ICE to the point that two protesters lost their lives.

ICEBlock returns … maybe

Fast-forward to today. Months after ICEBlock’s removal, Obama-appointed District Court Judge Jorge L. Alonso issued a preliminary injunction in favor of Joshua Aaron, agreeing that banning or blocking ICE-tracking apps, websites, and services violates the First Amendment. He went on to say that both the Justice Department and Department of Homeland Security illegally coerced tech companies to remove ICEBlock and similar apps from the App Store and Google Play. Facebook was also reprimanded in the decision for shutting down an ICE-tracking Facebook Group called “ICE Sightings — Chicagoland."

It’s important to note that Alonso’s ruling is only a preliminary injunction and not a final ruling, meaning that its protections are temporary, pending a full trial. If the case falls in favor of ICE-tracking apps and services, ICEBlock and the like can return to online spaces indefinitely, leaving the Trump administration with one less legal option to protect the whereabouts and operations of ICE agents.
