Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s Deputies Turn in Federal Credentials As Attacks Continue
Posted by Jim Hoft on Friday, December 23, 2011, 6:20 AM
The Obama Administration continued its assault on Sheriff Joe Arpaio this week.
ICE officials are no longer picking up illegal aliens from his jails.
Yesterday, dozens of Sheriff Joe’s deputies turned in their federal credentials during a press conference in Arizona.
FOX News reported, via Orbusmax:
Dozens of Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s jail officers lined up at a news conference in Phoenix Wednesday to ceremoniously hand in their federal credentials a week after they were stripped of the ability to verify the immigration status of inmates.
Arpaio spoke at the same news conference, saying he’s going to hold the federal government to its promise to send 50 federal agents to do such screening in his jail. But he predicted there will be illegal immigrants in jail who won’t be deported and will be put back on streets.
“I want to see how many agents are going to be coming to our jail,” the sheriff said. “I want to see how long it will take for 50 agents from across the country to work in our jails.”
The Department of Homeland Security announced Dec. 15 that more than 90 of Arpaio’s Maricopa County jail officers could no longer check whether inmates were in the county illegally.
The decision followed the release of a scathing Department of Justice report that said Arpaio’s office has a pattern of racially profiling Latinos, basing immigration enforcement on racially charged citizen complaints and punishing Hispanic jail inmates for speaking Spanish.
The sheriff has repeatedly denied the administration’s allegations of racism.

This Christmas, no man is giving ammunition – the perfect stocking stuffer!
The vicious men and women threatening our liberties and our lives are killing Americans from Washington, not Afghanistan or Iran.
Granny commented:
You know, it really isn’t Sheriff Joe’s fault that 95% of the illegal aliens in his jurisdiction are from Mexico or Latin America – or at least look as though they are and pretend to be.
P. Aaron commented:
Hey America! You want 4 more years of this?
bigkahuna commented:
Holder, Obama reid and pelosi should be the ones being investigated
RedBeard commented:
This outrage cannpt be allowed to stand.
Remove Eric Holder from office for violating his oath and gross malfeasance.
And then, arrest him and put him on trial as accessory before the fact in the murder of Brian Terry.
Redlite commented:
When the many of your inmates do not speak English it is easy to profile them!!
Can’t wait to see how many months it takes for DHS to man up. Mean while the local gov’t is stuck paying for their incarseration costs. Bet the Feds won’t help out with this.
Patty commented:
Petition seems to have not made a difference. But maybe people can still sign it. I believe that Joe is a Hero. This Spanish thing is so preposterous. Holder is one idiot and needs to be locked up and preferably in Joe’s jail.
There are men and there are wussies and you are seeing a real man fighting for Justice being drag and rung up and hung like an animal for the Public to see and the dumbest of the dumb will believe that Joe is the enemy.
Obama administration has created more unemployed and have released more criminals to Occupy the streets. This is another outrageous and propaganda that Holder is pursuing in his famous work as DOJ. Fast and furiously Holder is at it again.
Larkin commented:
Get rid of holder?
Who are we kidding?
The person occupying the White House is not only very likely illegitimate, but has committed multiple impeachable offenses. Yet, he is a protected class all his own, as are his minions.
Patty commented:
Remember Americans who oppose them are Racists. You know they have used this word for everything.
My first impression of a person is usually correct and when I saw Obama and his appointees I just knew we were in terrible trouble.
Hope the next president really scrutinizes and researches his or her appointments because this presently AIN’T working to well for the American people.

Joanne commented:
The sheriff has a crew looking into Obama’s eligibility to sit as POTUS, and this is why this bullcrap is going on. The sheriff is experiencing a shakedown. America is now the land of the apathetic, blind, and lost.

What do expect from admistration that murdered a border agent and mexican national and then cover it up
Sam Stone commented:
We are witnessing the new Civil War between the states and the Federal government started by this fascist regime.
A truly CIVIL war. Holder cares more for illegals than fro the USA.
He needs to be charged tried and executed.

Undoubtedly, anyone who shows contentious attitude will be called out and Holder will say you are a racist. Funny, DOJ has to say it with words because there is a single muscle in this wusses body.
He looks like a turtle, yes, I said it you know you all are thinking the same thing.
Patty commented:
there is “not” a single muscle
correction
Patty commented:
Heard less illegals are entering the states. Answer: no jobs. That is one way Obama can claim that under him there are fewer illegals. And he will find a way to use this to his advantage and the ignorant will believe their little Messiah is so wonderful.

The Federal Government is not your friend.

On the bright side, I look for Mittens to attack Comrade Zero mercilessly on this and many other issues……once he gets the nomination.

This is part of Holder’s/and Obama’s War against anyone that stands up for enforcing immigration laws.

F***king traitors.
JCraig commented:
Do I believe Holder or Obama? Dumb question. Both need to be locked up with Craig and subjected to his rants for all eternity.
Greg commented:
Well if you can’t ask illegal felons brought to the county jail if they got papers, then assume they are citizens and lock them up like the rest of the citizens in pink clothes. If you run out of space deliver ( in pink) two out of five to the federal court house for their disposition. If the feds turn loose murders and rapist thats their bad
Letscalltheheros commented:
I agree that we have a immigration law we need to fix I don’t doubt about it, (but after all!! ) they had nothing to do with this dang recession American people suffering right now because we all know WHO DID IT!! Republicans that sell American lives for money !!, Greedy corporations that the only think they care is how to full they pocket with money. They don’t care the suffering they cause to America!!. The worst then everything that there’s always people like ” I dont wana mention” that keep blamming~ Obama ~ administration for the happening right now, because all that was already write it down for ( republicans and extremist that act like real anti American ) cutting on american children’s EDUCATION,health programs,raising tax on the already suffering poor people of America !!!

THE TRUTH IS STRONGER THAN ANY OF YOUR LIES!!! * god bless the brave America *. It is on your hands…..
walks like a duck commented:
Arpaio could have some fun and not enforce such federal crimes as bank robbery, or fed mandates such as drug laws and hate crimes (oh! the irony, “the assault / battery / murder appeared to be racially motivated, we cannot do anything about it).
Jet Jaguar commented:
What point is there to Arizona or any State to remaining in the Union when the Federal Government prevents the defending of its own borders? A primary function of Union membership was a pledge of mutual protection against invasion or attack. Not only is the Federal government negligent in fulfilling its duty but is antithetical to Arizona protecting itself, and is even persecuting and prosecuting Arizona and its people for attempting to do it.
owl commented:
You wonder why I keep crapping on Congress for years? I, being one of the little people, elected Repubs to be my Voice. I became livid with them for not standing up for Bush against the attacks. They thought all that stink would not hit them. Wrong. They were voted out in 2006.
They make me so mad I could spit. You hear anything about this mess from them???
I could make a short list of who I would keep up there but unfortunately, I am stuck with these. They do NOT know how to fight and lay down and let the Dem’s MSM stomp all over them. I’ll say one thing for Dems, they fight like they mean it.

Obama policies are no different than Bush’s.. This is the elitist NWO plan for dissolving the US independence into the American Union and NWO government.. These Repuplicat criminals try to say that using common sense is “Racial Profiling”.. Restore the Constitution.. End The FED.. End the wars.. Ron Paul.. 2012

Paul52, I gave up halfway through that gibberish from Letscalltheheros. It made my head hurt and my eyes water.

Bush courted Fox,Calderon,passed free trade… illegal.immigration exploded,lowered workplace enforcement,touted guest worker amnesty programs….islamocommie is completing the scheme with in your face marxism.Bush set the platform…by the way the Bush family supports Romney.
Lawlessness Brings Destruction commented:
Here’s why the non-enforcement of immigration law is so important to the Obama administration and culture of corruption AND the DNC:
They want to stage enough illegal aliens to receive amnesty to ILLEGALLY inflate the Dem. voting bloc.
The ACORN symbiont SEIU’s own leadership spilled the beans on this.

The deceit and arrogance against the law abiding American citizen and the rule of law is downright militant.

You are so right! We are suppose to hear something in Jan/Feb from Sheriff Joe. There will be more of this kind of crap from Holder and Co.

LOL “Full they pocket”
He might have a point about cutting education, he sure got short changed.
Let me guess, add another unstable Paul supporter to the list. High on MJ maybe?
Bob Sr. commented:
As was stated earlier, the reason the Sheriff is being attacked now is because the fake “president” and his enablers are attempting to disrupt the progress of Arpaio’s “cold case posse” which is looking into the obvious ineligibility and various other crimes of Obama ans his enablers.
Holder and the Department of Injustice number one job is to protect Obama. What has been uncovered already by the cold case posse is described as, “devastating” to Obama.
Sheriff Arpaio is an American Hero.
Frank in Iowa commented:
@RealSheriffJoe: Let the feds come to Maircopa County and arrest each one for Obstruction of Justice. YOU ARE THE ULTIMATE LAW ENFORCEMENT AND HAVE THE POWER. Invite Holder down and put him in pinkies and let him live in the tent city.
Frank in Iowa commented:
@JetJaguar: kudos to you. You are exactly right. States have sovereignty and can tell the Feds to Kiss Our Ass. Sheriff Joe has the power to arrest any federal official who comes into Maricopa County and causes problems

Rent a bus and take these illegals to Holder’s home.

Sheriff Joe should charter a dozen buses and unload his illegal immigrant problem to a friendlier city… DC. One way ticket… free!

James Cook commented:
I haven’t always agreed with everything Sheriff Joe does, but at least on this one he is doing a great job! It is time to stop letting our Country be taken over and it is also time for the Federal Government to step aside and let the States take care of their internal issues!
President Obama doesn’t understand the first thing about State Rights, or for that matter the rights of the Elected Sheriff.
The only people that need to be arrested outside of the illegals are the Obama Administration.
I sincerely hope that we can get Obama out of Office and begin a trial on every one of them for the Treason they have done to this Country!
If we had more Sheriff’s like Joe we could take this Country back for the people of America who were born here!
