Report: Trump Wants Disgraced Sheriff David Clarke At Homeland Security

[spanone]

According to a report in Politico today, the Trump administration is seeking to bring Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke into the fold by giving him a post in the Department of Homeland Security.

“Clarke is in line to be appointed as assistant secretary at DHS’ Office of Partnership and Engagement, which coordinates outreach to state, local and tribal officials and law enforcement. The position does not require Senate confirmation,” Politico notes.

Clarke, who recently said that those protesting Trump’s election “must be quelled,” is extremely popular in conservative circles thanks to his extremist rhetoric:

Clarke has made a name for himself as a Fox News pundit and avid supporter of the gun lobby, using his platform in the media to attack Black Lives Matter, which he describes as a lawless, “subversive” and potentially ISIS-linked group composed of “black slime” that must be “eradicated,” and to champion the cause of anti-government militants, whom he praises as patriots.
