He is a (closeted) gay Mormon appointed by Dubya, who is fluent in Spanish and did his LDS missionary work in Mexico and should have been forced to recuse himself from the case as a result.
“Those issues principally involved whether the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office (MCSO) had the authority to enforce federal civil immigration law.”
I figured that was at the bottom of this. It says Dec 2011 evidentiary hearing. The MCSD was indeed one of the agencies that had gotten approval to act as ICE agents/enforce immigration laws. Odumbo’s DHS pulled that authority.
I know he’s popular here but the rule of law demands that agents of law follow court injunctions. There isn’t a “But...” to that statement. If he’s using his position to insulate himself from consequences that is ++ungood.
It also really doesn’t help that his second in command has admitted to contempt for not carrying out court orders. That’s just gratuitous.
If I understand this court situation correctly, please consider the following.
Given that this is a federal court, the problem with the court’s finding is that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to address race-related rights outside the scope of voting issues as evidenced by the 15th Amendment.
We need to send lots of prayers up for Sheriff Joe
Amen.
How about prayers for us ourselves, to embrace the Lord again.
The devil rules in this world and only the power of Christ can overcome the devil, and no, our own sense of self dignity is NOT a stand-in for the power of Christ.
It will almost always only be federal judges that oppress the states, now. The are loaded to the hilt with Marxists.
A political hit.
Yes there is a BUT.
The US Constitution is the Supreme Law of the Land.
If Federal laws are unconstitutional, it is a DUTY to not comply.
Complying with “laws” is the mantra of the Tyrant. Supporting and defending the Constitution is anathema to them.
Ping since “you like” Arpaio so much.
Oh I forgot... Con Con you got your liberal butt zotted when you finally outed yourself.

He likely listens to Glenn Beck.
We don’t even have a good way of arriving at a consensus of what is constitutional any more.
Avowed conservatives differ bitterly — the NBC status of Ted Cruz was one such example, and it helped make room for Donald Trump, who had no such question hanging over him, to pass him by.
It would be a “big deal’ if the courts weren’t such piles of steaming bullshit these days.
How are we supposed to have any respect for them—SERIOUSLY??

The Constitution is a simply-worded document written for the common man.
The original intent must ALWAYS supercede ideology.
The common man doesn’t need Harvard-educated ivory tower elites telling him what it means. Those vermin seek only to deprive more and more liberty from formerly free men. Formerly free men have had enough of their nonsense.
However, the common man of that day was, of course, culture bound. If they thought that it was going to carry over to posterity without much or even a lot lost in translation, they were sadly mistaken.
And the NBC issue was that of an orphaned term. The law of that day defined NBC. It was later superseded by other law which did NOT define NBC. Now we have a wonderful Rorschach test for judges.
NOTHING supercedes the Constitution.
I believe you are referring to usurpation of power, which is tyranny.
