The rise of increasingly radical police forces poses real dangers in the future.
It’s yet another sign of the right’s efforts to seriously organize and mobilize to destroy the integrity of the electoral process.
According to the Times, two conservative sheriffs’ groups — Protect America Now and the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association — have already joined this agenda. This is not quite an emergency yet, but it is deeply troubling, because it’s yet another sign of the right’s efforts to seriously organize and mobilize to destroy the integrity of the electoral process. It’s one thing to make noise about not trusting elections as an individual. It’s another thing to band together with others and think up strategies for meddling in them.
Per the Times, three sheriffs affiliated with these groups, from Michigan, Kansas and Wisconsin, have butted heads with election officials when the sheriffs pursued investigations into 2020 election fraud, including an effort to “charge state election officials with felonies for measures they took to facilitate safe voting in nursing homes during the pandemic.”
