Nitrogen hypoxia is actually a pretty good way to kill people. There was an interesting documentary the BBC did back before it became irreparably infested where Michael Portillo looked into the various alternatives and concluded that inert gas hypoxia is the best way to go. They even showed a video of a pig taking apples from a box filled with inert gas. It knocked the pig clean out but it woke up and took another apple. Portillo himself experienced hypoxia and claimed it was like being drunk. He was happy as a clam and minutes from passing out and dying.

So it's actually pretty sensible. I'm also not at all convinced that it's possible to convict people of treason in the US in peacetime. So even if many riggers are convicted the worst they'll get is a couple of years in club fed.
Sydney Powell said that she doesn't support long sentences for white-collar crime but instead, people should get a year or two inside and then many years wearing an ankle bracelet helping out a soup kitchen. She said this is what should have happened to Bernie Madoff. Works for me.
Sometimes less really is more. Also from my admittedly warped and amoral perspective, you need to make sure your law and order isn't seen to be so excessively nasty that it is unsustainable. Rioters need to be tear-gassed and bean bagged, not shot. People who rig elections need to get a couple of years inside and then a few more feeding the homeless as a penance, not fried in the electric chair or shot.
Violence, as Saddam told his psychopathic son Uday in the excellent
House of Saddam, is a tool, not a pastime.
