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.

The only thing "controversial" about David Clarke is he makes the left wet their pants.
But the position he's being considered for is below him. He needs an enforcement position. Head of ICE would be good. Better yet, get rid of Comey and put Clarke in at FBI.

Notice they almost never attach “controversial” to the Communist-Fascists infesting the Democrats ?

It would be A Dream Come True if Sheriff Clarke were picked for a high-level position.
Wisconsin would hate to lose him, though...

Only a way off the wall liberal would call him controversial.
So you already know all you need to know about the author.

Are there several David Clarkes? The one I know; the Sheriff from Wisconsin, neither is feiry tempered, nor does he engage in overthetop rhetoric. In fact, his remarks are always measured, thoughtful and spoken in low decibels. I wish him the FBI gig.

Controversial???-in what way? Because he is black? Because he stands for law and order? Because he supports the US Constitution? Because he is a leo? He is a breath of fresh air from the sanctuary mayors and cities in my view.

Put him in charge of 0's Civilian National Security Force.
They could probably use some redirecting.

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