Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is seeking the permission of President Trump to execute Muslim Jihadi, Nidal Hasan, via the death penalty, which was his sentence back in 2013 after massacring 13 and wounding 32 at Fort Hood.

Here’s more via Daily Caller:

The Department of War will ask President Donald Trump for final approval to execute the Fort Hood shooter, Nidal Hasan, a DOW official told the Daily Caller News Foundation exclusively.

The execution, if approved by Trump, would be the first carried out by the military since 1961. Hasan, a former Army Major and psychiatrist turned radical Islamic terrorist, killed 13 people and wounded 32 others during his notorious rampage on the Army base in 2009.

“I am 100 percent committed to ensuring the death penalty is carried out for Nidal Hasan,” Hegseth exclusively told the DCNF. “This savage terrorist deserves the harshest lawful punishment for his 2009 mass shooting at Fort Hood. The victims and survivors deserve justice without delays.”

Hasan is currently imprisoned in the U.S. Disciplinary Barracks at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Hasan lost his final appeal to his 2013 death sentence in April 2025, according to the San Antonio Express.

Under the Army’s regulations, the Army Secretary put forward the recommendation for Hasan’s execution. It was then passed to the Secretary of War to give “additional recommendation to the President,” the DOW official told DCNF.

“Inmate Hasan’s packet is now in the staffing process for presidential action,” the DOW official said.

I hope Hasan has made peace with the one true God and his Son Jesus Christ. Because if he’s expecting some reward in the afterlife for being a violent and murderous jihadi against us infidels, he’ll be profoundly disappointed.
