Milwaukee Sheriff David Clarke Responds to D.A.

Sheriff David Clarke responds to Milwaukee D.A. John Chisolm  

This is a great read.

A New John Doe Inviestigation in Milwaukee?

I am sure that the Milwaukee D.A. who has racked up tons of taxpayer dollars going after Gov. Scott Walker for over the last several years is opening a John Doe investigation into the actions of Milwaukee County Supervisor John Weishan Jr.

Milwaukee County Supervisor John Weishan Jr. spent $4,700 in taxpayer funds to send out some 13,000 letters criticizing a bill proposed by State Representative Joe Sanfelippo (R-New Berlin).

Why is this news and worthy of a John Doe investigation?  Milwaukee County Supervisor spent that purchasing the addresses and sending the letters to people in the 15th Assembly District, which happens to be mainly in the New Berlin area in Waukesha County.  Which wouldn't be of any interst to a Milwaukee County Supervisor.

Except.  Wait for it.

Just 5 Weeks later Milwaukee County Supervisor John Weishan Jr. announced his candidacy for the  15th Assembly District running against State Representative Joe Sanfelippo. 

Seems that would be right down the avenue of what Milwaukee D.A. John Chisolm uses the John Doe investigations for.

So far no report on a John Doe investigation into this matter.  That would seem to mean that at this point none has been opened up.  If past practices are any indication I am sure we would know since the D.A. is not very good at keeping things a secret.

Obama Administration Makes America Less Safe

The Obama Administration quite possibly will go down as the most incompetent White House in the History of the United States.  Every day we the American people find out more and more about the Obama Administration that just flat out floors us. 

The latest blunder by the Obama Administration undoubtedly has made Americans less safe.  Not only are we less safe, but they have shown a level of incompetence that is mind blowing.  The deal to release an American Soldier was touted by President Obama with a press conference on the White House Rose Garden and hugs and smiles on live TV.  What was the President thinking?  This man was considered by many in the Military in Afghanistan as a deserter and there were even many questions as to whether he was actually assisting the Taliban.  Many things are coming to light in the wake of this prisoner swap that the White House should have known.  Let alone the high price that we paid for his release and the price that we pay for years to come.

President Obama not only broke a longstanding rule of not negotiating with Terrorist, he replenished the enemy while we are still on the ground engaged with them.  He also failed to follow law and notify Congress 30 days prior.  They first claimed it was time sensitive and they had to act immediately.  Then we find out that this had been in the works for months and even years.  We had Susan Rice again going on a talk show and stating that Sgr. Bowe Bergdahl “served with honor and distinction”.  Which has been called into unquestionable doubt by many in the Military. 

Now we have five of the most hardened terrorists released back into the world free to pursue their hatred and attacks on the American People and Our way of life.  Thanks to President Obama we also have made overseas travel for any American Citizen or Soldier much more dangerous.  We have painted a target on their back.  Every American Citizen or Soldier is now a pawn in the Terrorist game, a bargaining chip the Terrorist can use in the war with America. 

Now we can only hope that this will be the final straw that makes the American Media wake up to call out the Obama Administration on all of the issues that they have thus far let his people sweep under the rug.  Lets get to the bottom of the Benghazi Attacks, the VA Scandal, and the many more issues that we let Obama and his Administration sweep away without asking the hard questions and pushing for the truth.  The American Media have given him a pass and not pushed and held them accountable.  Hopefully this will open some eyes.

Milwaukee D.A. Fires back at Sheriff

Milwaukee District Attorney John Chisholm fired back at Sheriff Clarke after Clarke has gone public that he thinks they should temporarily stop the plea bargaining and non prison sentences in all major crimes until a study can be done to judge its effectiveness. 

Chisholm fired back (from the JSOnline)

"In a five-page response to Clarke's proposal last week to suspend plea bargaining and non-prison sentences in all major crimes, pending a study of the practice, Chishold called the idea "legally, ethically and practically irresponsible," and took swipes at Clarke's talk radio hosting, his secretly pursuing a master's degree in California, and his decisions to have deputies watch private guards check courthouse visitors, rather than arrest offenders on the streets."

However I think the Sheriff may be correct here.  Milwaukee is seeing a spike in major crime and some of these offenders wouldn't be on the streets if not for the pleas and non-prison sentences.  I also find it hypocritical that the D.A. is saying that Officers need to arrest offenders on the streets.  What difference does it make when the D.A. just puts them right back out on the street to offend again?  Is this Job Security? Officers arrest them, then the D.A. puts them back out there so the Officers can arrest them again and again and again.The D.A. must be forgetting that there are victims to these crimes and every time you put them on the street again there is another victim.

It seems that the only Leadership that we get around Milwaukee is from the Sheriff.  Since what the Mayor, D.A. and County Executive have been doing doesn't seem to be working, maybe they should listen to the Sheriff instead of going after him.

Not Everyone Happy with Soldiers Release

I stand corrected.  I guess not everyone is very happy with the release of Sgt Bowe Bergdahl.  Read the excert below and continue to the whole story.  Sure is an eye opener.

Story from NBC News:

The release of Army Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl from captivity in Afghanistan has reignited questions from some about the circumstances of the soldier's disappearance five years ago.

Bergdahl was the only American soldier being held in the country until he was exchanged in a swap deal on Saturday for five high-ranking Taliban figures from the Guantanamo Bay detention facility.

His freedom was celebrated by his family and the Obama administration. But others — including some members of his own platoon — have reiterated their long-held concerns over the events surrounding his June 2009 disappearance. 

Obama Breaks Laws and Rules

Obama has forever changed the game.  He not only broke the law with the release of Prisoners without proper notification to Congress, he broke a longstanding stance of not negotiating with Terrorist.

This makes for a very dangerous situation for Americans around the world fighting terrorist.  Now every American becomes a high value bargaining chip for Terrorist.

I think that it is safe to say that we are all very happy that Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl has been freed, however I think it is also safe to say that the way it happened has now put many many many people in danger.

Terrorist will be looking for Americans that they can capture to use as bargaining chips with the American Government.  Prior to this, it has always been that the U.S. did not negotiate with Terrorist.

Obama's team has said that they couldn't notify Congress because of the urgency of the matter.  However it has also come to light that the negotiations have been ongoing for months.  So that is a blatant lie once again by this administration.
