5. U.S. Representative Tim Burchett (R-TN)

Mon Feb 16, 2026, 05:41 PM

Monday

Speaking about crimes involving minors, Burchett argued the country needs the “guts” to carry out executions for convicted child predators.

“It’s the truth! We need to execute them. We need to quit with this nonsense of them sitting on death row for 30 years,” Burchett said.

He went further, describing the crimes as “evil” and “satanic,” adding that those responsible would “go straight to the pits of hell.”
