Voters Drive Sheriff Arpaio Out of Town

Some good news from Tuesday, a point of sanity on a day when the nation’s electoral judgment went catastrophically astray: Voters in Maricopa County, Ariz., sent Sheriff Joe Arpaio packing. He lost his bid for a seventh term. After 24 years, “America’s Toughest Sheriff” is done.

Doohan served with the Canadian Army, and lost the middle finger of his right hand when he was shot at Normandy.

He did his best to conceal the missing finger during his acting career, but sometimes tribbles happen.

Although technically he was not a member of the Royal Canadian Air Force, he was once labelled the “craziest pilot in the Canadian Air Force” due to things like slaloming a plane between mountainside telegraph poles just to prove it could be done (which earned him serious reprimand).

You’re awake, by the way. You’re not having a terrible, terrible dream. Also you’re not dead, and you haven’t gone to hell. This is your life now. This is our election now. This is us. This is our country. It’s real.

Striking prisoners at Alabama’s Holman prison say they have been joined by an unlikely ally: their own guards.

Guards at the facility did not show up for their shifts at 6pm on Saturday, according to organizers of the national prison strike and audio and video accounts from a contraband cellphone inside the facility.

“The warden is pushing the meal cart,” tweeted out the Incarcerated Workers Organizing Committee, one of the organizations behind the strike, which began on September 9th.

A prisoner at Holman, going by the name Kinetik Justice, gave an interview to Aljazeera English on Monday, discussing the strike. He also released an audio message, which said:

“September the 24th 2016, Holman Correctional Facility, this is Kinetik Justicecoming to you live. It’s official. At 6 o’clock no officers came to work. None came to work. None of the officers came to work. We have Deputy Commissioner Culliver, Warden Peterson, Sergeant Franklin from across the street… Who else? Warden Peterson from across the street, Warden Stewart, the captain, a white guy, Wilson, and one another. Those are the only ones here running the facility. Right now the commissioner is passing out trays. Warden Peterson is pulling the cart. Deputy Commissioner Culliver passing out trays. I can’t believe it. To my black sliding shoes, brown knitted pants, white tweed shirt with the collar bust open, sweating at the temples. It’s real. No officers came to work. They completely bugged on the administration. No more will they be pawns in the game. High time it’s going down.”
