There is “big news” in this interview:

Arpaio coyly says he has decided where to send the investigation of the selective service registration forgery.

Hedgecox tries to draw Arpaio out by suggesting that he sent it to Obama’s Selective Service administrator, but Arpaio says that administrator is a political appointee overseeing only 120 people these days who would immediately phone up Eric Holder's DOJ to (fill in the blank).

Arpaio doesn't say who got the Selective Service registration forgery. My guess is that Arpaio gave it to the Postal Inspectors and/or Postal Inspector General who, unlike the Selective Service Admin., have a huge, semi-independent postal fraud and forgery operation not directly under the Obama Admin.

Here is Wiki on the relative independence and standing of the two separate law enforcement arms of the USPS, the Postal Inspection Service and the even more independent Office of Inspector General:

“Postal Inspection Service

“The United States Postal Inspection Service (USPIS) is one of the oldest law enforcement agencies in the U.S. Founded by Benjamin Franklin, its mission is to protect the Postal Service, its employees, and its customers from crime and protect the nation's mail system from criminal misuse.[46]

“Postal Inspectors enforce over 200 federal laws providing for the protection of mail in investigations of crimes that may adversely affect or fraudulently use the U.S. Mail, the postal system or postal employees.

“The USPIS has the power to enforce the USPS monopoly by conducting search and seizure raids on entities they suspect of sending non-urgent mail through overnight delivery competitors. According to the American Enterprise Institute, a private conservative think tank, the USPIS raided Equifax offices in 1993 to ascertain if the mail they were sending through Federal Express was truly “extremely urgent.” It was found that the mail was not, and Equifax was fined $30,000.[47]

“Lastly, the PIS oversees the activities of the Postal Police Force who patrol in and around selected high-risk postal facilities in major metropolitan areas in the United States and its territories.

“Office of Inspector General

“The United States Postal Service Office of Inspector General (OIG) was authorized by law in 1996. Prior to the 1996 legislation, the Postal Inspection Service performed the duties of the OIG. The Inspector General, who is independent of postal management, is appointed by and reports directly to the nine presidentially-appointed, Senate–confirmed members of the Board of Governors of the United States Postal Service.

“The primary purpose of the OIG is to prevent, detect and report fraud, waste and program abuse, and promote efficiency in the operations of the Postal Service. The OIG has “oversight” responsibility for all activities of the Postal Inspection Service.”

“Forensic Laboratory Services

“The U.S. Postal Inspection Service maintains a state-of-the-art National Forensic Laboratory in Dulles, VA, comprising highly trained forensic scientists and technical specialists who play a key role in identifying, apprehending, prosecuting, and convicting individuals responsible for postal-related criminal offenses. Its mission is to provide scientific and technical expertise to the criminal and security investigations of the U.S. Postal Inspection Service. Laboratory services are divided into the units described below.”

“Questioned Documents Unit

“The Questioned Document Unit provides technical assistance to Postal Inspectors who are investigating suspected violations of postal statutes. Document Analysts process requests from Inspectors to determine the authenticity of questioned or disputed documents. Analysts determine authenticity through the following procedures:
•Comparing “questioned” and “known” handwriting, typewriting, commercial printing, and other machine or mechanical impressions.
•Analyzing paper and ink.
•Restoring eradicated and obliterated impressions.
•Visualizing indented handwriting impressions.
•Detecting altered and counterfeit impressions.

We likely have a counterfeit President using likely fraudulent documents and he appears to be raiding the Treasury...The SECRET SERVICE is next to him every day..
