Donald pardons Joe Arpaio.

On a Friday night. As a hurricane threatens to decimate Texas.

It's almost as if he didn't want this to get any attention...

He also signed some kind of a transgender military ban. Must have finally figured out that the military does not take orders via Twitter.

Also new subpoenas were issued today.

Why didn't you move there and vote against him? Saint Joe was voted in every time and carried out the will of his constituents.
Most voting Arizonans approved of Arpaio's "tent city" where convicts were housed outside and not provided fringe benefits. When asked if he thought that the convicts deserved air conditioning, Joe replied, " our soldiers in Iraq are carrying 80lb. packs in 130 degree heat, and they didn't commit any crimes . He saw no reason to treat convicts better than American soldiers .

How many times do you think Arpaio heard some prisoner say he was innocent, or got railroaded. Hundreds of times? More? But they ended up doing time anyway in Joe's camp, unless or until they got cleared.

Joe didn't get cleared by any process. Wasn't a review. Nothing Trump just let him off.

That's pretty disgusting. Perfectly legal, but disgusting.

By the time they were a prisoner, they had had a trial, legal defense, a judge and a jury of their peers. Arpaio didn't have anything to do with their sentencing.

Do you think we should send an 84 year old man who has served his country for all his adult life to prison for contempt of court? There are Swat teams with no knock warrants that get the wrong house all the time and almost always kill the family dog, who do no time at all. All kind of dealers and rapists, and thugs who do no time inside. Joe doesn't deserve jail.

It's more disgusting that George Soros gave more than two million dollars to Joes competitor in the last race for sheriff. http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/11/09/501388042/maricopa-sheriff-joe-apraio-loses-reelection-fight Soros is all over the place trying to destroy America. He funds the Antifa party, the Blm, the anti racist racist party, Clinton etc.

Arpaio was elected 6 times by the residents of Maricopa county, he is who they wanted to fulfill the duties of sheriff. He was doing what he was instructed by the voters to do.

hmm
Lets get out of the fantasy zone that joe "was voted in every time"
reality check
2016 Maricopa County Sheriff's Office election, Arizona
Paul Penzone 861,757 votes
Joe Arpaio (incumbent) 665,581 votes

So your point is Joe won? More like he got his butt whipped.

What part of my last post putting up a link to Arpaio losing to Penzone makes you think that I said Joe won the last election? Could it be the part where I said Penzone received more than two million dollars from Soros?

Yup, contempt of court gets you thrown in jail because you already defying the court when you decide to act against it. Whereas if you follow court orders you may be considered to do other types of penance outside..

Old people and veterans are not above the law unless they are incompetent or something. They guy didn't like to show prisoners any comfort, so what's wrong with showing him the same deal.. Nothing period.

Not impressed by people who can't take their own prescription of medicine they readily dish out.
