John Mccain, Others Slam President Trump For Pardoning Joe Arpaio by thomasina: 4:27pm On Aug 26, 2017
President Donald Trump's decision on Friday to pardon former Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio was condemd by Democrats & a number of Republicans. Joe Arpaio was convicted in July of criminal contempt for violating a federal judge's order to stop racially profiling Latinos when enforcing immigration law.

"No one is above the law & the individuals entrusted with the privilege of being sworn law officers should always seek to be beyond reproach in their commitment to fairly enforcing the laws they swore to uphold," said Republican Arizona Sen. John McCain in a statement.

The pardon is the latest issue to pit the Arizona Senators against the President, who spent time criticizing both McCain & Flake at his rally in Phoenix on Tuesday, when he hinted that he might pardon Arpaio.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer accused Trump of usingthe heavy focus on Hurricane Harvey to quietly pardon Arpaio.


"Joe Arpaio ignored the courts & the rule of law in order to systematically target Latinos in AZ," he said on Twitter.
