The Washington Compost needs to be knocked down to size.

Who would want to read that piece of toilet paper?

As for Paul Penzone, he’s proof that even a moron can get elected sheriff.

Are you sure you want that? Pee is a great fertilizer, and it’s mostly water. If your scenario came to ‘pass’; McCain’s grave would bloom like a desert oasis. (Just messing with you.)

Arpaio’s tents to be soon be replaced with air conditioned luxury 10 x 24 foot cells, nutritious and plentiful grub, individual 55 inch flat screen TVs, custom-tailored jail clothes with stylish accents, and a personal “trauma counselor” for each inmate to help them get over what Sheriff Joe inflicted on them.

Next we’ll see the law-abiding citizens of Arizona “knocked down to size” by the Sheriff Joe’s former “oppressed victims.”

But the Washington Post will be too busy with other matters to notice.


Spot on.

Trump's PRO-BORDER mandate WON, Hillary LOST.

Get over it, WAPO.

I am done supporting tax cuts for people like Bezoa and the people who run the lib msm. And since Rich Republicans won't invest in money in media like their lib counter parts do I am all for sticking them with more taxes too. On top of that I think all of the money both sides are making from cheap foreign labor replacing American workers should going taxes as well.Every single penny and then some. Stab them in the front like they stabbed us in the back.

This is the type of petty and stupid baloney WaPo is doing these days?

No wonder no one care about what they say any more

President Trump needs to launch a missile attack on the Washington Post. That rag is twice as toxic as sarin gas!

This is a Washington Compost cheap shot, hit job. I lived in Arizona for most of Arpaio's career and met him twice at talks he gave to civic groups. Not much in this article is the truth. It is blatantly biased against Arpaio throughout the whole article.

Arpaio was controversial in many ways but also was very popular for most of his career as sheriff. It was only after the open borders activists started going after him and Obama's DOJ decided to stop him from enforcing federal immigration law, did his popularity start to fall off some.

The people that don't like Arpaio are democRATS, illegals, activists for open borders, drunks and other criminals that have had to serve time in Tent City in jail. Law abiding citizens otherwise liked the guy because he was a tough jailer, albeit out of the ordinary and quirky sometimes.

He opened Tent City because the country would not build a bigger jail to hold the overflow of inmates. He used old Army surplus tents and with a chain link fence enclosing it, they served fine as a substitute for a conventionally built jail and saved the country money. The article claims it will save the taxpayers money but they don't mention that inmates now will have to be put up in a conventionally-built jail house that will cost 10 times that amount.

As for Joe being passed over for Trump administration jobs, this is also a cheap shot. The man has served in many capacities during his career, most notably with the DEA for 25 years and then served as sheriff of Maricopa County Arizona (Phoenix) from 1993 until 2016. The man is now 84 years old and doesn't need another job.

You can count on the Washington Compost to attack a patriotic American like Arpaio but they will defend a sleeze like Eric Holder all day long.

The libs AKA the Washington post have been LOSING so much lately with all of the Trump winning, that they just need to revel in this one. Bless their hearts. Arpaio was 84, and needed to retire anyway. Would have been more sporting to have had a replacement groomed and ready though.

Penzone refers to illegal aliens as ‘guests’. Soros certainly did buy this office to facilitate the Democrat-ization of Arizona. Keep our state in your prayers......Democrats are taking more power each day. And just an FYI-Ann Kirkpatrick would have beaten a weaker ‘Republicsn’ and she would have been even much worse than McCain. And that is a fact.

Attention Maricopa County:

“Hug A Thug” is now the order of the day.

That is all.

It is really disgusting to see this revolting non-journalism coming from to top of the WaPo. It does show clear desperation and raw fear of Arpaio and his forensic evidence, IMO, should Trump chose to use it. Arpaio has to get past this stupid trial kicked off by DNC Chair Perez (IIRC) first.
