In 2018, we witnessed the rise of the 'Walk Away Movement,' but that was just the tip of the iceberg. During four years of Trump's policy that brought peace and prosperity, many eyes were opened to the shared values of the America First movement. After nearly four years of a devastating decline in our economy, energy, and national security, people are more aware than ever and ready to drive change at the polls, much like the Reagan years. It took the disastrous presidency of Carter to pave the way for Reagan and conservative policy reform. This is our moment to reach out to our family and friends on both sides of the aisle and discuss these critical American issues. Together, we can support the leadership and policy priorities that will steer our nation back to safe harbor, AGAIN! America needs more leaders and patriots like this! Blue state sheriff says he’s ‘changing teams,’ urges support for TrumpFox11 | 6-3-24RIVERSIDE COUNTY, Calif. - A well-known conservative California sheriff joked that he was "changing teams" ahead of the 2024 election and urged people to support a "convicted felon." "I think it's time we put a felon in the White House," Riverside Sheriff Chad Bianco said in a video posted to social media Saturday. Bianco’s comments come after former President Trump was convicted last week on 34 felony counts in New York, making the former president the first president to be convicted of a felony. Bianco, who has openly teased the possibility of running for governor of California, said in the video that he has done all he could over three decades in law enforcement to "keep our community safe by arresting criminals and putting them in jail," but lamented that leaders and California have become seemingly pro-criminal in recent years. "For the last five years I’ve been very critical about our governor for slashing our budgets from corrections, for letting prisoners out early, for closing our prisons," Bianco said. "I've been critical of our state legislature for passing laws to make it harder to put people in prison. I've been critical for their changing laws that let prisoners out early. And I’ve been critical of our attorney general for seemingly not caring about crime.” The sheriff went out to lament the "love affair" the state’s leaders "have with criminals," which he argued is based on a "belief that criminals are not responsible for their own actions." "They’re a victim of society," Bianco said. "It’s society's fault. It's businesses' fault. It’s cops' fault. It might be my fault." Bianco noted that the state's leaders blame the judicial system, laws and law enforcement for being "systemically racist," leading to criminals being put in jail as a result of "bias."
