There’s alot to unpack here, but I just want to point out its time to elect a Sheriff that doesn’t wear white socks with a Canadian tuxedo.
Hmmm. When he wears his uniform you-all bash him for that “fashion felony”.
Then when he wears relaxed clothing you-all bash him for that.
He’s running for Sheriff, not Fashion Runway.
At least he shaved before his interview. Just say’in.
FF to 36:30 to here our brave Sheriff brag about his love for ICE and how he volunteers info on immigrants to ICE! MAGA cult member through and through.
And all this, when ICE operates unlawfully under the helm of Chad Wolf, who was never confirmed by Congress. Sheriff Shane Nelson has no problem with Federal shock troops assaulting Deschutes County citizens. No problem with aiding the immoral kidnapping of our community members! Vote this guy out. Ick.
Well, at least having an opponent every four years forces him to vow to make the some of positive changes from the other person’s platform.
