[In It to Win It]

A Sheriff in Columbus County, North Carolina, resigned after he was caught on tape threatening to fire his Black police officers.

"I'm sick of it. I'm sick of these Black bastards," former Sheriff Jody Greene said in a recording obtained by NBC affiliate WECT. "I'm going to clean house and be done with it. And we'll start from there."

Greene resigned following an investigation by the State Bureau of Investigation, according to the local news outlet, WITN.

The audio, which was obtained by WECT, was a recorded conversation that took place in February 2019 between then-Captain Jason Soles and Melvin Campbell, both of whom are Black.

Soles was running against Greene in the Columbus County Sheriff's election this year before his resignation, according to WECT.

1. Good thing he resigned; the Extreme Court might rule he was just exercising religious freedom.

4. It is! By way of the Subversive 6.

It's the most serious threat we currently face. It's the goal of libertarians and fascists alike. The Supreme Court is the court of last resort -- where the Constitution is supposed to provide the ultimate protection. This court has eliminated that protection so that no one can depend on (trust) its adherence to the guarantees of law.

The radicalized Republican party tries to pretend that the protection of government is limited to protection from outside forces, but our government is formed to protect us from each other as well as from would-be invaders. This court ignores our evolving history, and, in Dobbs particularly, the slow progress toward equal protection under the law. The Subversive 6 unravels that without any logical or legal basis.

5. Clarification: By "it is", I mean it IS an Extreme court.
