A controversial law enforcement officer who is known for his fiery temper and over-the-top rhetoric is reportedly being eyed by the White House for a job in the Department of Homeland Security.

According to Politico, Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke is being considered by President Donald Trump for the job of assistant secretary at the DHS’ Office of Partnership and Engagement. If selected, Clarke would be tasked with coordinating outreach between tribal officials, state and local officials, and law enforcement.

Sheriff Clarke will do a good job wherever he ultimately lands because he’s that kind of man. My question is how much longer is America going to segregate native Americans by keeping them as victimized wards of the state? Close the reservations, recognize them as ordinary citizens and move on. This current system that is hundreds of years old demeans, stigmatizes and leads to second class citizenship. No more victimization excuses.

I agree. Absolutely nothing controversial about David Clarke. He does his job and does it well. He is intelligent and well spoken and has good ideas. I am looking forward to reading his book.

“...get rid of Comey and put Clarke in at FBI.”

Agreed. We need a patriot like David Clarke to clean out that nest of leftist, traitorous snakes at the FBI.

Getting riod of that lying POS Comey would be a MAJOR accomplishment, and replacing him with Clarke would send half the ‘rat party apparatchiks to the psychiatric wards.

Close the reservations,

I don’t claim to know much about the subject, but I think there are many Native Americans who would fight like hell to prevent the closure of the reservations, because from what I’ve heard they are self-governed, benefit from various government programs unique to their status, and run some of the most lucrative gambling casinos on the planet.

I'd like to see Clarke assigned to follow McCain and HoneyGraham around 24/7 just to make them nervous.

“controversial” ?!
He is the Sheriff with the biggest balls... and recently, the most respect from fellow FReepers here. The Homeland job position (for him to fill) has also been suggested, starting here.
