And he’s going to do it anyway. He should arrest the DOJ officials and deport them as well.

Sure to be a lengthy thread. “Rejecting what works” would be a great motto for this regime.

""It's all politics," said Arpaio, who spent much of an afternoon news conference Tuesday wagging his finger, waving his arms and snarling at reporters."

No bias here... move along..

Sheriff Joe needs the support of lots of people.

If anyone starts a thread with a petition for signing, please post it here on FR.

“Arpaio said he will be able to still conduct the crime sweeps under state human smuggling laws and an obscure federal law that allows local police to arrest illegal immigrants.

“Now I’m not under their control,” Arpaio said. “Nothing changes; that’s the irony of all of this.”

He will conduct one in two weeks “with a new twist.” Arpaio did not go into further detail about what that means.”

Obama has met his match. Joe is nobody’s fool, and has ice water in his veins ;-)

I’m amazed they didn’t characterize Arpaio as “wrapped in a strait-jacket and biting the head off a whippet”

He is the duly, constitutionally elected Sheriff of the county. The top law enforcement officer of the county.

If a crime is committed in his county, then he not only has every right to go after the perpetrators, but he has a duty to do so in order to portect the people of his county.

Arpaio should swear out an arrest warrant for interference with a law officer against Napolitano.

"Feds strip Arpaio of immigration authority"

Look at the source of this story! Exultation that more Democrat voters can be created "at the stroke of a pen" to quote a famous lefty saying.
