Sheriff Clarke Away from Trump Events 1027 S. 5th St., Milwaukee, WI 53215 (414) 643-1620 Thursday, March 24th, 2016 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ESPAÑOL ABAJO Contact: Sam Singleton-Freeman, 414-469-9206, [email protected] Keep "Hit First, Hit Hard" Sheriff Clarke Away from Trump Events Following Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke's incendiary comments targeting Trump protesters, Voces de la Frontera and Coalition for Justice circulate a petition to keep Clarke from providing security at Milwaukee-area Trump events On Saturday, Milwaukee County Sheriff David Clarke told a Fox News host that immigrant rights and Black Lives Matter protesters at Donald Trump events deserve to be "hit first and hit hard." Voces de la Frontera and the Coalition for Justice are circulating an online petition to urge local authorities to prohibit Sheriff Clarke from having any responsibility for public safety at likely soon-to-be announced Trump events in the Milwaukee area. Click here for video of Clarke's comments. "Sheriff Clarke's violent rhetoric endangers public safety, and his comments targeting immigrant rights and Black Lives Matter supporters completely disqualify him from having anything to do with protecting the public at Trump events," said Christine Neumann-Ortiz, Executive Director of Voces de la Frontera. "Clarke is inciting the racist violence that has shocked the country at Trump’s rallies. We urge local authorities in the areas where Trump holds events to ensure that Clarke and the Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office are not in charge of protecting public safety, given his incendiary comments. We call on local authorities to establish a plan to prevent racial profiling and violence at Trump events to protect the people’s constitutional right to protest.” jueves, 24 de marzo de 2016 PARA DISTRIBUCIÓN INMEDIATA Contacto: Sam Singleton-Freeman, 414-469-9206, [email protected] Mantenga el Sheriff Clarke de Milwaukee lejos de los eventos de Trump Siguiendo los comentarios incendiarios del alguacil del condado de Milwaukee David Clarke dirigidos a manifestantes en contra de Trump, Voces de la Frontera y la Coalición para la Justicia circulan una petición para prohibirle a Clarke de ser encargado de seguridad en los eventos de Trump en el área de Milwaukee Este pasado sábado, el Sheriff del Condado de Milwaukee David Clarke dijo a un presentador de Fox News que manifestantes del movimiento para los derechos de los inmigrantes y de Black Lives Matter que hacen protestas en eventos de Donald Trump merecen estar "golpeados primero y con fuerza."

"Clarke está provocando la violencia racista que ha escandalizado el país en las reuniones de Trump. Instamos a las autoridades locales en las zonas en que Trump lleva a cabo eventos que aseguren que Clarke y la Oficina del Sheriff del Condado de Milwaukee no se encarguen de la seguridad pública en los eventos, teniendo en cuenta los comentarios incendiarios de Clarke. Exigimos a las autoridades locales que establecen un plan para prevenir la discriminación racial y la violencia en los eventos de Trump para proteger el derecho constitucional para protestar." ### .

  • About Sheriff David A. Clarke, Jr. After Nearly Four Decades in Law
    About Sheriff David A. Clarke, Jr. After nearly four decades in law enforcement, Sheriff David Clarke has found innovative ways to serve the public that gives him the freedom to reach millions of Americans with his message, unfiltered by the confines of holding an elected office. In addition to his dedication and focus as the Sheriff of a large metropolitan county, Clarke developed a passion for political commentary. He is fondly referred to as the "People's Sheriff" because he has the natural ability to explain complicated national controversies in a way that everyday people can understand. He is the keynote speaker at countless events across the country, where the audience praises his no- nonsense way of promoting conservative values. He truly enjoys mobilizing everyday Americans to become more politically active and civically engaged. As President of his new private sector venture, DAC Enterprises, Clarke has ramped up his massive social media activism, including regular communication with his nearly one million followers. In 2017, he became Spokesman and Senior Advisor to America First Action, dedicated to supporting the Trump-Pence Administration. Most recently, he is excited to join the Capital Research Center as Chair of the American Law and Culture program where he will tackle the destructive liberal ideology of identity politics. Sheriff Clarke is a frequent guest commentator for world renowned national news programs on issues such as the reasonable use of force by law enforcement, preserving the Second Amendment, and the complexities of immigration enforcement at the local level. Just one of his interviews, where he sparred with Don Lemon of CNN, has nearly 3.4 million views on Youtube.

The letter concerns a complaint by American Democracy Legal Fund (ADLF) alleging that Russian nationals "funnel[e(Q foreign funds through the NRA" in connection with the 2016 elections—specifically, it would seem, the presidential election—and/or "partic^ted in the NRA's decision-making process regarding election-related activities" in connecdon with the same election. For the reasons set forth below, ADLF's allegations are meritless, and no furtiier action should be taken in this MUK The complaint is based on tank speculation, sensationalized reporting, and ignorance of the NRA's stmcture and internal operations. It is devoid of any evidence concerning key elements of the violations it asserts, so much so that no response £com the NRA should be necessary to secure its dismissal with a finding of no reason to believe that a violation occurred. Nevertheless, out of an abundance of caution, we axe providing affidavits ftom knowledgeable sources within the NRA that refute

  • NRATV and the Making of Liberal America As a Public Enemy
    Journal of Contemporary Rhetoric, Vol. 10, No.1/2, 2020, pp. 1-21. Loaded Words: NRATV and the Making of Liberal America as a Public Enemy Adam G. Klein This research examines the recently suspended online channel of the National Rifle Association, NRATV, through the frame and rhetorical analysis of 220 videos shared on its Twitter channel. The study provides systematic evidence to articulate how the NRA used the mantle of an online network devoted to guns to espouse hostile political discourses about liberal America. The study reveals a broadcast acutely dedicated to the discussion of perceived “enemies”— media outlets, Democrats, and social movements like the Women’s March—rather than subjects of gun rights or gun ownership. The findings established a rhetorical pattern by which these subjects were discussed, not as political op- position, but as domestic threats and public enemies. The research then explored the communication strategy of frame bridging, which NRATV hosts used often to align the so-called “violent left” with global threats, and to present liberal America as dangerous and anti-American. By explicitly linking the NRA platform to this series of anti-liberal themes, NRATV hosts were no longer advancing the organization’s core message of personal self-defense, but rather an ide- ological case for imminent national defense against the American left. Keywords: National Rifle Association (NRA), gun rights discourse, frame bridging, far-right politics, inciting hostility. The National Rifle Association (NRA) has long been recognized as first and foremost a gun rights lobby. Indeed, the well-established profile of this 150-year-old organization, as fierce defender of the Second Amendment, has all but erased its original mission as that of a rifle club whose mem- bers once promoted hunting and marksmanship.1 But following the passage of the Gun Control Act in 1968, the NRA dramatically recast itself as the nation’s leading advocate for the right to bear arms, first launching a lobbying arm, and then sharpening its tone accordingly.

    ALTERNATE ROUTES: A JOURNAL OF CRITICAL SOCIAL RESEARCH www.alternateroutes.ca ‖ Twitter @ARjcsr BOOK REVIEW Alt-America: The Rise of the Radical Right in the Age of Trump, by David Neiwert. London: Verso, 2017. $16.95 U.S., paper. ISBN: 978-1-78663-446-7. Pages: 1-456. Reviewed by Adam Beardsworth1 In a letter addressed “To the children of Satan” and mailed to more than twenty US mosques in the wake of Donald Trump’s 2016 election victory, an alt-right group calling itself Americans for a Better Way declared “[t]here’s a new sheriff in town—President Donald Trump. He’s going to cleanse America and make it shine again. And, he’s going to start with you Muslims. He’s going to do to you Muslims what Hitler did to the Jews” (qtd. in Neiwert 317). This hate- filled missive, which is included in David Neiwert’s magisterial Alt-America: The Rise of the Radical Right in the Age of Trump, supports Neiwert’s thesis that Trump’s presidency has both emboldened and legitimated the far-right movements that helped secure his election. For Neiwert, the rise of American populism cannot be attributed solely to the disenfranchisement caused by unemployment, wage stagnation, and outsourcing (as is argued, for instance, by George Packer’s The Unwinding or, to some extent, J.D. Vance’s Hillbilly Elegy). Rather, the populist wave that helped elect Trump has been rising for decades, and has its political roots in the Tea Party movement that emerged when the libertarian Rand Paul (later exposed as a racist, anti-Semitic conspiracy theorist) brought that party into existence on the 234th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party.
