Side one of the new anti-Pearce flier. Side two, featuring Pearce and the Ernst Roehm of the East Valley. I’ve been screaming in the wilderness about the links between avowed neo-Nazi J.T. Ready and state Rep. Russell Pearce for well-over a year. Now Republican consultant Nathan Sproul has taken up…
Kudos to the Maricopa County Democratic Party for this kick-ass repository of anti-Joe info. Today the Maricopa County Democratic Party formally unveiled a brilliant new weapon in the ongoing war against corrupt old Sheriff Joe: A Web site called Joesgottogo.com. The site bills itself as, “The best source of Joe…
Side one of the Nathan Sproul-authored mailer. The reverse of the same flier, which began hitting Mesa mailboxes today. It’s better than ESPN, better than football, better even than those pay-per-view Girls Gone Wild ads on late night cable. (No, really.) I mean the kvetching and donnybrooking on the conservative…
With three months to go, a glimmer of hope for Arpaio-foe Dan Saban. Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s a wounded animal tonight. And challenger Dan Saban ‘s on the hunt and smelling fresh blood. A new Rocky Mountain/BRC poll shows Joe’s numbers trending downward like they’ve been doing since last year. Currently,…
Absolutely not Darrell Ankarlo…but this guy did have leprosy. Last week, while I was listening to KTAR’s far-right lip-flapper defend his sorry ass in the whole Ankarlo book tour controversy — you know, where KTAR took $11,500 in RICO funds from County Attorney Andrew Thomas’ office to promote Ankarlo’s brown-bashing…
Check out these new attack ads against anti-Mexican Mesa pol Russell Pearce and GOP wild man Jack Harper, state Senator from LD 4. Both are brought to us by two independent expenditure committees, People of Arizona and Protect Arizona’s Future. The anti-Pearce ad faults the Republican legislator for disobeying Ronald…
What’s more sickening, spoilt mayo or our own Sheriff Blowhard? After this recent stunt in which some 11 corn and snow-cone vendors were arrested by MCSO goons in a mini-Maryvale sweep, I’d say, Sheriff Joe. (See update on number in custody below.) “But Sheriff Joke doesn’t make you sick,” I…
Is that the corpse of the KTAR news room Ankarlo’s devouring? In case you missed today’s show from KTAR’s mornin’ jabroni Darrell Ankarlo, you can rest assured that your county RICO dollars are being well-spent. At least as far as County Attorney Andy “Candy” Thomas is concerned. See, for just…
It’s likely no one in town will give me any credit for breaking the story that KTAR 92.3 FM is getting moolah from the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office for top lip-flapper Darrell Ankarlo’s book tour. (Sniff.) But that’s OK. You know who broke that story, boyos. In fact, should anyone…
Russell “White Pride” Pearce, doing what he does best… This Friday, the Web site for the Yellow Sheet Report, a political tipsheet published by the Arizona Capitol Times, picked up on the 30-year-old allegations of domestic violence against Russell Pearce by his wife LuAnne. The story appeared first in this…
Wing-nutty Hobbit-lady and recall wench Anna Gaines, from a file photo. Saturday, she was briefly arrested at Borders Books on Camelback… Capping off a disastrous day both for Sheriff Joe and for the Phoenix anti-immigrant movement in general, Anna Gaines — the founder and chairperson of American Citizens United, the…
KTAR’s e-mail newsletter, featuring Ankarlo’s book, and the County Attorney’s seal of approval. KTAR 92.3 FM’s Darrell Ankarlo continues to rail against big government on his radio show, calling Barack Obama a socialist, in defiance of the facts, while KTAR takes what you might call radio welfare from the Maricopa…
Ipso schmucko, going down kinda like the dog he pretended to kill in Grand Rapids, Michigan. What’s the latest from the Old Pueblo and the ongoing donnybrook between Isabel Garcia and those who’ve taken the Pima County Legal Defender to task for her hoisting the head of a Sheriff Joe…
Nativists and activists and Sheriff’s deputies, oh, my! We ain’t in Kansas, no more, Toto. Rather, we’re in P-town, at the Board of Stoopervisors meeting. I mean, Supervisors, of course. And if last month’s demo before the Supes’ auditorium downtown at 205 W. Jefferson Street is any indication, then we…
Russell Pearce “is possessed of a violent temper,” according to a 1980 court document signed by his wife LuAnne. That old example of a loaded question, “So, when did you stop beating your wife?” seems weirdly applicable in Valley political circles these days. First, there’s the June 26 incident involving…
A flier for U.S.A.’s upcoming supremacist shindig: Regarding the dress code, we hear white sheets are optional. Next Saturday afternoon should be a pretty rowdy one in Phoenix’s tony Biltmore Fashion Park. Not only will Sheriff Joe be appearing at the Borders Books there to promote his latest work of…
A stinging indictment of Sheriff Joe Arpaio and the MCSO. That’s how the lawsuit filed yesterday by the Arizona ACLU, the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund, (MALDEF) and the Phoenix law firm Steptoe and Johnson, against Joe, the MCSO and Maricopa County reads. Brought on behalf of five…
Video of the Tucson protest of Arpaio, from Jon Justice’s 1041TheTruth, showing a Sheriff Joe piñata being beaten and Isabel Garcia scooping up its head. Like you need more proof that times are way-way-slow down in the “Old Pueblo,” Tucson radio wing nut “Jon Justice” is hunting the head of…
Tears of a clown? Joe’s afraid of the big, bad Mesa police chief. So I return from my brief respite from the sad insanity of Maricopa County to see that mean ol’ Sheriff Joe’s still so scared of Mesa Police Chief George Gascon that our cowardly top constable won’t even…
Brandy au naturel, from her Web site brandysmassage.com. I’ll be out of pocket for the next couple of days, and so will not be able to blog as normal. There will be some catching up to do Monday, on the new Cave Creek raid and the series on Joe in…
Will J.T. be at the big debate Thursday? And more importantly, will he be in uniform? The call’s gone out from ex-KIA peddler Rusty Childress’ United for a Sovereign America, the most militant outfit of racist knuckledraggers in the Valley: Their old buddy state Rep. Russell Pearce, aka, Mr. Ethnic…
Bruce Starr at the Super Bowl. The image is from the Honduras radio personality’s February report on his trip in Honduras This Week Online. Let’s return to Honduras for a moment and check in with Sheriff’s office pal “Roatan Bruce” Starr, a radio-personality in the Bay Islands, Honduras who also…
