Sheriff warned by US investigators after flying Trump flag on patrol boat
Oswego County Sheriff Don Hilton received the warning from the U.S. Office of Special Counsel
in response to a complaint alleging that he violated the Hatch Act
(which forbids the use of taxpayer time and money going toward advocacy for a political candidate)

Tell the Feds to blow it out their hawse pipes.

Former President Donald Trump is a private citizen.
He is not a candidate for political office at this time so there is no violation of the Hatch Act.

Would the feds be concerned if he was flying a Bill Clinton or Barack Obama flag? HECK NO!!!.

He was back in August when the incident occurred.

“...A sheriff in New York received a warning after a federal investigation into a complaint that his department flew a Trump flag from a government-owned boat in August.”
