Read something factual, not Trumpian fake news:
Arpaio's attorneys asked his judge NOT to recuse. From the judicial clerk for the judge in the original Arpaio trial:

Andrew Case? @AClaudeCase
(I will not be revealing any conversations with the judge about the substance of the case because duh). (2/15)

Judge Snow was appointed by George W. Bush. He quoted Scalia favorably. He had a Romney Institute blotter on his desk. (3/15)

Arpaio now calls him “liberal” – this is flatly false. He is ideologically conservative and deeply devoted to the rule of law. (4/15)
He took pains to ensure that the trial was procedurally fair – crediting unsupported statements by Arpaio deputies. (5/15)

Arpaio’s office had deleted thousands of requested emails (yes!), Snow issued only mild sanctions in response. (6/15)

When a minor issue came up that could have merited recusal, he held a hearing – Arpaio’s attorneys asked him not to recuse. (7/15)

Judge Snow’s order was upheld on appeal before trial by a Nixon appointee, who singled him out for praise in the opinion. (8/15)

Arpaio sent investigators after the judge’s wife and constantly insults him publicly. (12/15)

Judge Snow has never responded to these personal attacks – he is far too dignified to do so. (14/15)

So when you hear Arpaio and Trump on the judge, remember he is a classic Republican judge and a deeply honorable man. (15/15)




Trumpsters are slandering a good judge on behalf of a bad man.
