Sheriff Joe Under Seige!
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio is under siege by the Obama administration.
Obama has joined forces with George Soros and “La Raza” – not to mention the ENTIRE Leftwing liberal political establishment – in a multi-million dollar smear campaign to DESTROY AND DISCREDIT Sheriff Joe, “America’s Toughest Sheriff” solely for doing his job and doing it well.
And to top it all off, they are spending millions of YOUR tax dollars to do it!
Already, federal bureaucrats handpicked by this administration are working as “monitors” in Sheriff Joe’s Maricopa County office to stop him from enforcing immigration law.
More than anything else, the Spender-in-Chief wants to stop Sheriff Joe from continuing the Cold Case Posse investigation of his Constitutional eligibility to be President – an investigation which has already unearthed ‘probable cause’ and evidence of a systemic effort to cover-up and conceal information surrounding Barack Hussein Obama’s alleged citizenship.
Radical amnesty fanatics just held a protest demanding that the federal government step in and strip Sheriff Joe of his badge – Obama’s buddy George Soros even pledged $10 million to defeat Sheriff Joe for reelection!
We know Obama’s utter failure to reign in HIS out-of-control spending has left you broke as gas prices continue to soar right along with the cost of groceries. And let’s not forget, many of us will be forking over OUR hard-earned dollars to Uncle Sam this coming Tuesday to pay for Obama’s nanny-state and welfare for the 12 million illegal immigrants whose fraudulent votes he’s depending on for reelection.
Time and time again YOU have rallied to defeat illegal immigration by fighting to secure our borders and defeat backdoor amnesty. You have supported patriots running for office and held them accountable for sticking to their guns when it comes enforcing our immigration laws. Now, we're asking you to rally for Sheriff Joe.
Make no mistake: Your decision to support Sheriff Joe WILL determine whether he wins or loses the upcoming re-election for Sheriff.
We know you are broke. Obama has made sure of that. We know you are sick and tired of the career politicians reciting pretty speeches about securing the borders only to turn a blind-eye once they had your vote.
But Sheriff Joe is no career politician, and unlike Barack Hussein Obama, Sheriff Joe listens to the AMERICAN people – U.S. Citizens, the folks, you and me.
Sheriff Joe is “public enemy number one” to this administration and Hypocrite Holder’s U.S. Justice Department – because he refuses to watch illegal immigration destroy our country, and despite the White House’s relentless pressure and smear campaigns against him, Sheriff Joe has not and will not back down.
Sheriff Joe is in the fight of his life, and he’s fighting it for us.
Now, we must fight for him.
Barack Obama and the Department of Justice are bringing lawsuit after lawsuit against America’s Toughest Sheriff. They’ve conspired to place Sheriff Joe’s office in a type of federal “receivership” – essentially stripping Sheriff Joe of his power and flooding his office with Obama’s mindless minions straight from bureaucratic Washington – all so they can stop Sheriff Joe’s crackdown on illegal immigration in its tracks! Obama’s public relations team has even touted their efforts against Sheriff Joes as ones made to protect the ‘civil rights’ of illegal immigrants.
Sheriff Joe needs your help, and he needs it now. Please, make the most generous contribution you can possibly afford to defend Sheriff Joe from Obama’s vindictive smear machine! Millions of dollars of warped, hate-filled ads are going to bombard Maricopa County as the Leftwing prepares to do whatever it takes to defeat Sheriff Joe.
We need to be able to fight back with ads of our own. We need to be able to stand alongside Sheriff Joe and take down this administration once and for all.
NO ONE in the mainstream media is reporting the White House’s behind-the-scenes battle preparations as they ready for the most high-stakes election – an election of unparalleled importance when it comes to battling illegal immigration. You see, Maricopa County Arizona is THE busiest drug- and human-trafficking corridor along the U.S.-Mexico border. If we can stem the flow of illegal immigration there, and continue enforcing the zero-tolerance policy when it comes to illegal immigration, we have taken back the upperhand and we have a chance to take back our country.
Sheriff Joe and his fellow officers are our only hope to secure the border and enforce OUR laws – not Mexico’s, not the United Nations’, and certainly not Obama’s warped interpretation of them – but the ones written in the books that declare those who illegally enter our country to be CRIMINALS to be deported back to their home countries, not given access to our taxpayer funded public services or snuck into the voting booths to bolster Obama’s radical agenda. And certainly not rewarded with amnesty at the expense of our future!
Sheriff Joe has made enemies of the most selfish person in the country – a person that has unlimited resources – and you better believe, Barack Obama has everything to lose if Sheriff Joe wins reelection.
Already, in the near two years of just some of Arizona’s no-nonsense immigration laws being enforced by Sheriff Joe’s office, Americans are filling the jobs once held by illegal immigrants and the burden on public resources has dropped as illegal immigrants flee either south of the border or to neighboring sanctuary states where there are no Sheriff Joes dedicated to standing up for the American people.
Sheriff Joe is a hero. Never doubt that.
But instead of being treated like the America-loving Patriot that he is, and applauded for doing his job and enforcing the law, he is being subjected to the most vicious liberal smear campaign paid for with your tax dollars and Soros’ pocket-change.
We know an Obama gallon of gas is more than $5/gallon in many places and that food prices are rising. Don't be fooled into thinking this is a local election about local needs. We need to keep Sheriff Joe in office not just for the security of Maricopa County but for the ENTIRE United States of America. Every aspect of our future – our children and our grandchildren’s future – depends on bringing Barack Hussein Obama down, and Sheriff Joe is the man for the job.
Sheriff Joe has risked EVERYTHING to stand up for us. We MUST stand up for him!

OBAMA PLANNING TO SUE SHERIFF JOE FOR ENFORCING THE LAW
The Obama administration said yesterday that it was preparing to sue Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his department for racial-profiling violating civil rights laws by improperly targeting Latinos when enforcing immigration law. Obama’s Justice Department claims that officers made unlawful stops and arrests of Latinos, used excessive force against them and failed to adequately protect the Hispanic community in Maricopa County.
Sheriff Joe and his department have firmly stood their ground against the Obama administration’s barrage of attacks that coincidentally (or not) escalated when America’s toughest sheriff announced his plans to open the first-ever criminal investigation of Barack Obama’s eligibility to appear on this fall’s presidential ballots.
TEXAS STATE REP. WANTS MEXICO TO REIMBURSE U.S. TAXPAYERS
Texas State Rep. Lyle Larson wrote in a March 21 letter that his state spends anywhere from $6 billion to $8 billion a year on health care and other costs for illegal immigrants – and he wants Mexican President Felipe Calderon to pay for it. Larson filed a bill during the 2011 legislative session that would have required state agencies and organizations to track the services they provide immigrants (and the expenses incurred) in order to figure out the illegal immigration problem from an “economic viewpoint.”
Amnesty advocates argue that illegal immigrants pay property and sales taxes – one study even suggested they pay more in state taxes than they cost the state in services even though actual costs are hard to pinpoint. At the local level, a study by the Texas Comptroller found that illegal immigrants pay more than $513 million in taxes but cost hospitals $1.3 billion in uncompensated health care and $141.9 million for incarceration, not to mention the cost for other services. The Pew Hispanic Center estimates that 1.65 million illegal immigrants live in Texas.

Arpaio's Officers Turn In Credentials
Arizona's Sheriff Joe Arpaio's Officers Turn in Credentials
Jail officers working for Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio handed in their federal credentials during a news conference in Phoenix Wednesday, a day before civil rights attorneys will be in federal court to seek a ruling in a lawsuit that alleges Arpaio systematically discriminated against Latino residents in conducting traffic patrols and so-called "crime suppression sweeps.".
Arpaio's office organized the public turning-in of the badges after ICE rescinded their authority to run immigration checks on inmates. Speaking at the news conference, Arpaio said he was holding the federal government to its promise to send 50 federal agents to do such screening in his jail, but predicted that there will be undocumented immigrants in jail who won't be deported and will be put back on streets.
"I want to see how many agents are going to be coming to our jail," the sheriff said. "I want to see how long it will take for 50 agents from across the country to work in our jails."
The Department of Homeland Security announced Dec. 15 that more than 90 of Arpaio's Maricopa County jail officers could no longer check whether inmates were undocumented immigrants.
The decision followed the release of a scathing Department of Justice report that said Arpaio's office has a pattern of racially profiling Latinos, basing immigration enforcement on racially charged citizen complaints and punishing Latino jail inmates for speaking Spanish. The sheriff has denied the allegations.
Homeland Security officials had no immediate comment on Arpaio's comments on Wednesday, but later pointed to a Dec. 21 letter that Immigration and Customs Enforcement sent to a county official, saying federal agents will staff the county's jails on a 24-hour, seven-day-a-week basis and that immigrants who pose public safety threats will be taken into federal custody and won't be released, Morton said in the letter.
On Monday, the agency said in a letter to U.S. Sen. Jon Kyl that it would send immigration agents to screen jail inmates in Arizona's most populous county. Arpaio's aides say only one Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer has worked at the county jails since last week.
Homeland Security's decision wasn't the first time Arpaio's federal immigration powers were cut.
In October 2009, Immigration and Customs Enforcement stripped Arpaio of his power to let 100 deputies make federal immigration arrests, but still allowed his jail officers to determine the immigration status of people in jail.

Arpaio Attacked BY DHS
Sheriff Arpaio has recently launched an investigation into whether Barack Obama's place on the 2008 Arizona Presidential Election Ballot was legal.
Feds Go After Arpaio For Civil Rights Violations
Thursday, 15 Dec 2011 12:06 PM
PHOENIX — The Department of Homeland Security is cutting ties with Joe Arpaio, the Arizona sheriff accused of a wide range of civil right violations, effectively stripping him of the ability to enforce immigration laws.
Secretary Janet Napolitano said Thursday the department is ending an agreement with the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office that allowed trained deputies to enforce immigration laws.
It's also restricting the office's use of the Secure Communities program, which uses fingerprints collected in local jails to identify illegal immigrants.
Napolitano's announcement came shortly after the U.S. Justice Department released a scathing report accusing Arpaio and his office of committing a wide range of civil rights violations against Latinos. Justice Department investigators said the abuses included a pattern of racial profiling.
The Justice Department also accused Arpaio's office of a pattern of discrimination and carrying out heavy-handed immigration patrols based on racially charged citizen complaints.
The report is a result of the department's three-year investigation of Arpaio's office amid complaints of racial profiling and a culture of bias at the agency's top level.
The Justice Department's conclusions in the civil probe mark the federal government's harshest rebuke of a national political fixture who has risen to prominence for his immigration crackdowns and became a coveted endorsement among candidates in the GOP presidential field.
Apart from the civil rights probe, a federal grand jury also has been investigating Arpaio's office on criminal abuse-of-power allegations since at least December 2009 and is specifically examining the investigative work of the sheriff's anti-public-corruption squad.
The civil rights report said federal authorities will continue to investigate complaints of deputies using excessive force against Latinos, whether the sheriff's immigration efforts damage trust with the Hispanic community, and a large number of sex-crimes cases that were assigned to the agency but weren't followed up on or investigated at all.
The report took the Sheriff's Office to task for launching immigration patrols, known as "sweeps," based on complaints that Latinos were merely gathering near a business without committing crimes. Federal authorities single out Arpaio specifically and said his office, known as MCSO, has no clear policies to guard against the violations, even after he changed some top aides earlier this year.
"Arpaio's own actions have helped nurture MCSO's culture of bias," wrote Thomas Perez, who heads the Justice Department's civil rights division, adding that the sheriff frequently gave racially charged letters to some of his top aides and saved them in his own files.
The report will require Arpaio to set up effective policies against discrimination, improve training and make other changes that would be monitored for compliance by a judge. Arpaio faces a Jan. 4 deadline for saying whether he wants to work out an agreement. If not, the federal government will sue him.
Arpaio has long denied the racial profiling allegation, saying people are stopped if deputies have probable cause to believe they have committed crimes and that deputies later find many of them are illegal immigrants.
Arpaio has built his reputation on jailing inmates in tents and dressing them in pink underwear, endearing himself to voters as unceasingly tough on crime and pushing the bounds of how far local police can go to confront illegal immigration.
The report also said Arpaio and some top staffers tried to silence people who have spoken out against the Sheriff's Office by arresting people without cause, filing meritless lawsuits against opponents and starting investigations of critics.
One example cited by the Justice Department is former top Arpaio aide David Hendershott, who filed bar complaints against attorneys critical of the agency along with bringing judicial complaints against judges who were at odds with the sheriff. All complaints were dismissed.
The anti-corruption squad's cases against two county officials and a judge collapsed in court before going to trial and have been criticized as trumped up by politicians at odds with the sheriff. Arpaio has defended the investigations as a valid attempt at rooting out corruption in county government.
The civil rights report said Latinos are four to nine times more likely to be stopped in traffic stops in Maricopa County than non-Latinos and that the agency's immigration policies treat Latinos as if they are all in the country illegally. Deputies on the immigrant-smuggling squad stop and arrest Latino drivers without good cause, the investigation found.
A review done as part of the investigation found that 20 percent of traffic reports handled by Arpaio's immigrant-smuggling squad from March 2006 to March 2009 were stops — almost all involving Latino drivers — that were done without reasonable suspicion. The squad's stops rarely led to smuggling arrests.
Deputies are encouraged to make high-volume traffic stops in targeted locations. There were Latinos who were in the United States legally who were arrested or detained without cause during the sweeps, according to the report.
During the sweeps, deputies flood an area of a city — in some cases, heavily Latino areas — over several days to seek out traffic violators and arrest other offenders. Illegal immigrants accounted for 57 percent of the 1,500 people arrested in the 20 sweeps conducted by his office since January 2008, according to figures provided by Arpaio's office.
Police supervisors, including at least one smuggling-squad supervisor, often used county accounts to send emails that demeaned Latinos to fellow sheriff's managers, deputies and volunteers in the sheriff's posse. One such email had a photo of a mock driver's license for a fictional state called "Mexifornia."
The report said that the Sheriff's Office launched an immigration operation two weeks after the sheriff received a letter in August 2009 about a person's dismay over employees of a McDonald's in the Phoenix suburb of Sun City who didn't speak English. The tip laid out no criminal allegations. The sheriff wrote back to thank the writer "for the info," said he would look into it and forwarded it to a top aide with a note of "for our operation."
Federal investigators focused heavily on the language barriers in Arpaio's jails.
Latino inmates with limited English skills were punished for failing to understand commands in English by being put in solitary confinement for up to 23 hours a day, and prisoners were kept locked down in their jail pods for as long as 72 hours without a trip to the canteen area.
The report said some jail officers used racial slurs for Latinos when talking among themselves and speaking to inmates.
Detention officers refused to accept forms requesting basic daily services and reporting mistreatment when the documents were completed in Spanish, and pressured Latinos with limited English skills to sign forms that curb their legal rights, without language assistance.
The agency pressures Latinos with limited English skills to sign forms by yelling at them and keeping them in uncomfortably cold cells for long periods of time.
The Justice Department said it hadn't yet established a pattern of alleged wrongdoing by the Sheriff's Office in the three areas where they will continue to investigation: complaints of excessive force against Latinos, botched sex-crimes cases and immigration efforts that have hurt the agency's trust with the Hispanic community.
Federal authorities will continue to investigate whether the Sheriff's Office has limited the willingness of witnesses and victims to report crimes or talk to Arpaio's office.
"MCSO has done almost nothing to build such a relationship with Mariciopa County's Latino residents," Perez wrote.

Arpaio Threatened
Arpaio gets death threats over Obama investigation
Warned he 'will be filled with thousand bullet holes'

Maverick Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio says his "Cold Case Posse" investigating Barack Obama's presidential eligibility will release a preliminary report in February of its findings, which he expects to be "controversial."
"This is a serious law enforcement investigation, and our findings are going to be controversial but based in facts," the Maricopa County sheriff told WND. Arpaio said a comprehensive report will be issued shortly after the February preliminary report.
"The investigators on the Cold Case Posse are doing a great job," Arpaio told WND. "They are all law enforcement professionals, and they are all volunteers putting in a lot of hours at no taxpayer expense."
Arpaio confirmed that the Obama investigation has broadened beyond an examination of whether or not the birth certificate made public by the White House on April 27 is an authentic document. The probe, he said, is examining Obama's history in regard to his eligibility to be president under Article 2, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution.
"We are not taking the Obama investigation lightly," Arpaio said. "The Cold Case Posse is actively tracking down all leads received, because the people deserve to know the truth."
Arpaio's investigative team has amassed hundreds of pages of documentation and taken testimony from dozens of experts in preparation for a final phase of field investigation
On Tuesday, Arpaio posted on his Facebook page a reference to a Globe Magazine report citing inside sources in the White House who say President Obama and the First Lady are in "a panic" over the Maricopa County investigation.
The reaction to Arpaio's posting indicates public interest in the probe is high, despite relatively little coverage by establishment media.
Since Tuesday, Arpaio's Facebook posting has received more than 7,900 "like this" clicks from readers, 780 shares and over 1,700 comments.
Arpaio also continues to receive messages of a different sort, with numerous death threats arriving at his office for his decision to investigate Obama's eligibility.
"I plan to kill Joe Arpaio first," read one particularly ominous death threat. "He will be filled with a thousand bullet holes before the year is out. I promise you this – Arpaio won't **** with Obama."
Maricopa County Deputy Chief David Trombi told WND that all death threats are being thoroughly investigated, with the intent to hold the culprits legally responsible for their actions.
"We can't take the risk of ignoring a threat, regardless how wild or crazy the threat may appear," Trombi said.
Arpaio, who has built a national reputation as a tough enforcer of Arizona's immigration laws, is no stranger to death threats.
"The threats regarding the Obama investigation may set a new standard for partisanship, but they are nothing new," Trombi said. "Four separate Mexican drug cartels have placed bounties totaling $4 million on his head. That's about as serious as you can get, and the sheriff has had to live with this for years."
Arpaio, nevertheless, is determined to bring the Obama investigation to a successful conclusion.
"The American people deserve to know the truth about Obama," Arpaio said. "We are a major law enforcement agency – one of the largest in the nation – and we have at our disposal investigative tools not generally available, even to the top private investigator in the country. We don't plan to stop until we discover the truth."

On Tuesday, Arpaio posted on his Facebook page a reference to a Globe Magazine report citing inside sources in the White House who say President Obama and the First Lady are in "a panic" over the Maricopa County investigation.
The reaction to Arpaio's posting indicates public interest in the probe is high, despite relatively little coverage by establishment media.
Since Tuesday, Arpaio's Facebook posting has received more than 7,900 "like this" clicks from readers, 780 shares and over 1,700 comments.
Arpaio also continues to receive messages of a different sort, with numerous death threats arriving at his office for his decision to investigate Obama's eligibility.
"I plan to kill Joe Arpaio first," read one particularly ominous death threat. "He will be filled with a thousand bullet holes before the year is out. I promise you this – Arpaio won't **** with Obama."
Maricopa County Deputy Chief David Trombi told WND that all death threats are being thoroughly investigated, with the intent to hold the culprits legally responsible for their actions.
"We can't take the risk of ignoring a threat, regardless how wild or crazy the threat may appear," Trombi said.
Arpaio, who has built a national reputation as a tough enforcer of Arizona's immigration laws, is no stranger to death threats.
"The threats regarding the Obama investigation may set a new standard for partisanship, but they are nothing new," Trombi said. "Four separate Mexican drug cartels have placed bounties totaling $4 million on his head. That's about as serious as you can get, and the sheriff has had to live with this for years."
Arpaio, nevertheless, is determined to bring the Obama investigation to a successful conclusion.
"The American people deserve to know the truth about Obama," Arpaio said. "We are a major law enforcement agency – one of the largest in the nation – and we have at our disposal investigative tools not generally available, even to the top private investigator in the country. We don't plan to stop until we discover the truth."

Rick Sanchez: Bigot
Rick, The Reverse Racist
op/ed
I have recently watched as Rick Sanchez, CNN Talking Head, attempted and failed to trip up Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County Arizona.
The only thing more stupid I have seen him do is to attempt to give Ibrihim Hooper, leader of C.A.I.R. enough credibility to refute the stance of the United States Government in regards to C.A.I.R. and it's documented ties to terrorism.
On two shows within the span of a week, Rick has had the good Sheriff appear live on his show while berating him with accusations of 'arresting people (illegal aliens) based on the clothes they were wearing', and 'flaunting a mandate' by the Federal Government to stop arresting illegals.
What an ass. But, I enjoy watching as he twists and skews the words of the federal agent to make his case to Arpaio, then twisting and skewing Arpaio's words to try to rile up the agent. Neither was impressed, neither was fooled. Sanchez was merely fooling himself. How desperate he must be to trot this charade before his dwindling audience in a pathetic plea for more viewers.
You must tune in from Noon to One weekdays as Rick reads selected exerpts from his Twitter loonies (Twits?). They all appear to agree with him, but if you go to his page yourself you will see a far different picture. Hardly anyone there agrees with him.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio Goes After ACORN
[https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXE4fjlq_JrXuUTZfJ6mrl7bI_iqIJWUaOOBYigYgHugHVvgesU0JG3TIhZNjBsYg9-bZzd4mcq3wgTBt0u-gCairz7tSy7IAQ9IFhiTxDxz2c1-vUqzQXQW8c-QB1crRF5_wl/s1600-h/arpaio.jpg]
Back in July a class action suit was filed against America's Sheriff, Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County Arizona. Sheriff Joe is the guy who has become famous for the tough way he treats criminals including making them live in tents and having to wear pink prison uniforms. Over in the last three years Arpaio has been a one-man homeland security agent, he has handed over 22,616 illegal immigrants to ICE for deportation.
Of course those in the PC Police are not happy with the Sheriff, Racist Agitator Al Sharpton has threatened to protest, Eric Holder is investigating him for racial profiling, and there is even a class action racial discrimination suit against him, all because he is trying to keep people who have come into the country illegally from staying in the country.
Apparently among the organizations helping with the lawsuit against the Sheriff is ACORN, so Sheriff Joe is going after the group for mis-using its funds.

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio is subpoenaing records from the ACORN
The sheriff’s office seeking information regarding the group’s involvement with Arpaio critics on Melendres v. Arpaio, a case brought by a Mexican national claiming he was unfairly treated and the victim of racial profiling by deputies.
“I believe the organization used state and federal funds meant to help poor people to conduct a campaign against me and my officers,” said Arpaio in a statement. “These records will show, I believe, that ACORN is in bed with the anti-immigration enforcement organizations, which continue to demonstrate in front of my office trying to thwart my officers from enforcing state and federal law.”
ACORN has called for Arpaio to resign and opposes his immigration raids. The group could not immediately be reached for comment.
The group has come under fire recently for offering tax advice to people posing as prostitutes and pimps. ACORN also has also been questioned for alleged voter fraud and the U.S. Senate voted earlier this week to cut off federal funding for the group. community activist group saying is could be using government funds meant for housing and social services to wage a campaign against his immigration enforcement.

Arpaio Not Invited To Comittee Hearings
Controversial Arizona Sheriff Snubbed by House Panel on Immigration
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio couldn't defend himself because the House didn't invite him.

Thursday, April 02, 2009
House Judiciary subcommittees convened Thursday to examine allegations of unconstitutional immigration enforcement tactics -- and took target practice at Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Arizona, whose controversial methods have been called racist by activists and Democratic lawmakers.
But Arpaio didn't defend himself on Capitol Hill. He did not testify to the committee and he did not attend the joint hearing.
That's because the Maricopa County, Ariz., law enforcement chief wasn't invited, said House Judiciary Committee sources.
"He was not asked or invited to come to this hearing, but he wasn't the direct focus of it," a source within the Judiciary Committee, speaking on condition of anonymity, told FOXNews.com.
The joint hearing by the House Judiciary Committee Immigration, Citizenship, Refugees, Border Security, and International Law Subcommittee and Constitution, Civil Rights, and Civil Liberties Subcommittee Thursday was convened to "focus on wide-ranging allegations of racial profiling in connection with the Immigration and Customs Enforcement's 287 program." It also was used to "examine allegations of unconstitutional policing and immigration enforcement tactics" like those used by Arpaio.
Arpaio's policing methods have drawn widespread criticism from lawmakers and activist groups, like Amnesty International and the ACLU, for allegedly using racial profiling to fight crime in the Southwest. The Arizona sheriff and his deputies have also come under fire for keeping harsh prison conditions and for unfairly targeting illegal immigrants.
Arpaio, who promotes himself as "America's Toughest Sheriff," said he's being unfairly vilified for his approach to law enforcement.
"It's a political witch hunt to use me to stop local law enforcement from enforcing federal laws," Arpaio told FOXNews.com on Thursday, noting that activists who regularly protest his policing hold up signs calling him "Hitler" and "Nazi."
"I've been the sheriff going on 17 years, and I always get re-elected. And all the polls on this issue of immigration support me so it's just a small minority of politicians and activists who accuse me" of mistreating suspects, Arpaio said.
Among the primary concerns during testimony was section 287 of the Immigration and Nationality Act, which was put into law in 1996 as a result of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act.
Section 287 authorizes the secretary of Homeland Security to enter into agreements with state and local law enforcement agencies that allow them to identify and detain immigration offenders they encounter during their law enforcement operations.
On Thursday, members of Congress and some of Arpaio's most outspoken critics -- like Mesa, Ariz., Police Chief George Gascon -- met on Capitol Hill to review the impact of federal immigration law on the ability to combat crime by illegal immigrants while also protecting their civil rights.
Gascon did not mention Arpaio by name during his opening testimony, but said the authority handed to local police by federal officials has created an environment in which racial profiling and "constitutional concerns" are setting back the effort to protect the public.
"The impact on local law enforcement in this politically charged environment can be devastating. In some cases, it is setting the police profession back to the 1950s and '60s when police officers were sometimes viewed in minority communities as the enemy," he said.
During Thursday's testimony, Arpaio's absence was noted.
"I want to make clear that he declined to come," said Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., chairwoman of the immigration subcommittee.
But when Lofgren was questioned by Rep. Steve King, R-Iowa, about whether the sheriff had been formerly invited, Lofgren said, "No, he said in advance he would not intend to come. In a newspaper article he said he would not come."
Arpaio, who has served as Maricopa County's sheriff since 1992, said he has dedicated the last 30 years working with the federal government, inside the Justice Department and as a Drug Enforcement Administration official, and he would think lawmakers would want to hear about his experience.
"You think they would have called me just to get my expertise -- if nothing else -- about the Mexican-U.S. border. But instead they get one of my biggest critics -- a Mesa police chief who doesn’t like me going into his town arrested illegals -- and a couple other people," he said.
"These congressmen never had the courtesy to ask me to speak," he said.
Arpaio also defended his policing methods, saying they are both constitutional and effective in lowering crime rates.
"We investigated 147,000 people booked into our jail under 287. And 23,000 murderers all the way down we proved are illegal so they can not get back on the street. That's why crime has gone down in this area," he said.
The sheriff said he has invited congressional critics to come to Arizona to observe his operations, but so far has got no response.
"I'm just enforcing the law that I took an oath of office to enforce. And nobody's going to deter me or scare me away," he said. "They can go after me all they want, but I'm very comfortable the way I run my operation."
