Be it Obamacare, sanctuary cities, Confederate statues, many of the seemingly crazy legal decisions, we see today are the work of Clinton and especially Obama appointees to the courts. All we hear about are SCOTUS appointees but it's the appointees to the lower courts who are causing the damage once in office. They are routinely rubber-stamped by both parties with little attention paid to their records . Look how many Democrats screamed bloody murder about Gorsuch's qualifications for SCOTUS, who had apparently thought he was a great guy, when they approved him for the lower courts .

Come on, guys. Arpaio was blatantly profiling. He was looking for Mexicans in this country illegally and he was only stopping Mexicans. To comply with the law, he was supposed to detain an equal number of orientals and Irishmen. No wonder the media is upset.

Recall "60 Minutes" had a segment on a east coast trooper that had a fantastic drug arrest record. He worked out time of night, driving just under the speed limit, 1 or 2 males, etc. the majority of his stops resulted in convictions. He simply profiled the drug runners.

Given, that helped make the "profiling" a no no.

Profiling solely on race is mostly wrong.

Profiling those activities and behaviors, places and times where crimes are prevalent is good policing.

(broad brushing, there are good exceptions)

Anyone want to guess which side of the issue Ryan falls on?

"The speaker does not agree with the decision," Ryan's spokesman Doug Andres told The Wall Street Journal. "Law-enforcement officials have a special responsibility to respect the rights of everyone in the United States. We should not allow anyone to believe that responsibility is diminished by this pardon."

Ryan has become one of my most hated politicians. I hope the prick gets primaried and voted out.

damn, the Republican establishment is so out of step w the people that voted them in

It's been my belief when Trump started having problems that the Republicans AND the Democrats are out to sabotage Trump.

How much more staged could you get than having a late night session into the early morning and then having McCain put in the No vote on the healthplan. The WWE is jealous that people buy the "reality" of the political show.

Doing what they all do pays better than doing the people's business they were elected for. Look at how many politicians come home millionaires. Makes sense when one realizes that Soros et al owns most every politician worth owning around the world. The system works for them, not us because they pay for that "privelege". That's why Marc Rich got a pardon, millions to the Clinton Global Sodomy Initiative.

The best thing about this is it pissed off RINO McCain! Well done Mr. President!

Part of the problem is the two evils. Take McConnell's last race. It was either vote for McConnell, or not. Not voting for McConnell meant that you were voting for Allison Grimes, who is a little left of Hillary Clinton. There were no good choices.

I don't know what the answer is because we can pick good candidates all day long to run in primaries against McConnell, but the money is controlled by the establishment. So, it is almost not feasible.

Obama commuted over 100 life sentences. Media gives zero shits.

same thing when he released hundreds of Taliban types back into the wild. Crickets.

So, anyone tired of all this winning?



Didn't think so.

Thank you President Trump. F-U McCain, and a special F-U to Ryan. I don't remember a peep out of either of these two assholes when cop killers, terrorists, and a plethora of criminals were being released by the previous anti-american pos administration.

At the next daily brief they need to roll out a list of all the criminals Obama let go and then ask why there was no outcry.

Better, do a follow-up on those that Obama pardoned and see how many have been rearrested.

I'm late to this party due to Harvey interrupting my schedule. Outstanding President Trump , just outstanding! Now Sheriff Joe can enjoy his retirement with his honor intact.
Sorry that I missed out of seeing all the talking heads in the media exploding. MAGA!. Dear President Trump , I am still not tired of winning. Thank you for fighting for us the people. I wish that this worthless Congress would remember who they work for. 2018 is just around the corner.

Has anyone kept track of how many of these reprobates are back in jail?

After receiving President Trump's first pardon, Joe Arpaio's plans have gone from possible prison to book-writing, speeches and potentially another run for office in Arizona, with Sen. Jeff Flake's seat one opportunity he is eyeing.

The former Maricopa County sheriff told the Washington Examiner he's upset at negative reaction to the Friday pardon, and that he feels Republican politicians are insufficiently supportive of the president, who he calls a great man.

"I could run for mayor, I could run for legislator, I could run for Senate," Arpaio said Monday. One particular race, however, is likely to gain significant attention: the GOP primary next year facing Flake, R-Ariz., a forceful Trump critic.

"I'm sure getting a lot of people around the state asking me" to challenge Flake, said Arpaio, who served 24 years as sheriff before losing reelection in 2016. "All I'm saying is the door is open and we'll see what happens. I've got support. I know what support I have."

Arpaio said he swore off another candidacy in January, when he left office, but that "with what I've seen happening in recent months, especially what's happening with our president, I said, 'Hey, why not?'"

Arpaio, who is 85 years old, said people should not scoff at his potential candidacy.

"Why do you say ‘wow'?" he admonished, adding: "They just say Sheriff Joe Arpaio comma 85 years old. Why do they always say that?"

Arpaio said he believes "there is discrimination against senior citizens, big time" and that "I'm proud to be my age. I work 14 hours a day. If anyone thinks my age is going to hold me back, I've got news for them."

"The bottom line is there's no way I'm going to go fishing. I have no hobbies," he said, declining to say how likely he is to seek office.

Flake is facing a re-nomination challenge from former state Sen. Kelli Ward, who is more closely aligned with Trump, but who has been branded a conspiracy theorist by opponents.

Arpaio said he has not spoken with Trump at any point in 2017, and said he also never spoke with Trump during a "cold case posse" investigation by Arpaio's office of President Barack Obama's birth certificate. He and Trump were prominent players in the "birther" movement.

Arpaio was convicted of contempt last month for defying a judge's order that his department not arrest suspected illegal immigrants without suspicion that they committed a state crime. He faced a maximum six months in prison.

The ex-sheriff said he may sue journalists who have called him racist or misreported details of the case against him. He says his attorney is reviewing the possibility and that he was "surprised" by negative reaction to the pardon by Flake and Arizona Sen. John McCain.

Flake is already 20 points down to Kelli Ward.
47-26.

Those numbers are pretty amazing for an incumbent senator.
26?
