“I’m Standing With Sheriff Joe


Grassfire Nation Update

According to a just released Fox News report, Sheriff Joe Arpaio, the self-proclaimed “Toughest Sheriff” is living up to his billing by digging in his heals and fighting back against the U.S. Department of Justice ...
Sheriff Joe, the report indicates, has “filed an appeal to a federal ruling that his office profiles Latinos and bases immigration enforcement on racially charged citizen complaints.”
You may also recall from our earlier updates, that Arpaio has repeatedly asked the DOJ for clarification into the charges against he and his staff -- clarification that the DOJ has yet to provide.
Arpaio has also been very outspoken in accusing the DOJ of a politically motivated assault against his department because the Obama administration is courting the Latino vote. Arpaio alleges his commitment to law enforcement is getting in their way of getting votes.
Even worse, the DOJ has stripped Arpaio’s officers of their Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) credentials -- further eroding law enforcement capabilities and putting millions of American citizens at risk!
Although no surprise, the fact that the Obama administration and the DOJ would put Americans at risk for the purpose of appealing to Latino voters is utterly offensive.

Willem, this isn’t an Arizona problem.

This is an America problem!

+ + “I’m Standing With Sheriff Joe!”

Americans from coast-to-coast and everywhere in between should be outraged by this administration’s behavior and actions towards Sheriff Arpaio and his dedicated team of law enforcement officials.
