Excerpt:
"In addition to going to Hawaii to gain access to documents to assist in his investigation of Barack Obama’s constitutional eligibility to serve as president, perhaps Arizona’s Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio should send his Cold Case Posse to New York City to solicit a donation from Donald Trump.
That was the suggestion of Steve Malzberg, guest host on yesterday’s Morning Show program at KTSA Radio, San Antonio.
Arpaio was being interviewed on the Trey Ware Morning Show about the progress in his investigation. Noting that his investigative team, made up of volunteer attorneys and ex-law enforcement personnel, were making headway, he took a swipe at critics who accused him of using taxpayer money by sending a deputy to Hawaii to provide security for the Posse members.
“I’m taking all the heat for using taxpayers’ money. I can’t believe this,” Arpaio said. “The Posse’s donations pay [for the trip to Hawaii]. … The Posse’s paying for the deputy, too.”
He continued: “So why is this most critical critical of investigations … why is everybody shifting to me as to why I sent a deputy down there and cost the taxpayers’ money when we are investigating two fraudulent documents, the Selective Service card that the president filled out and also the birth certificate. And everybody’s complaining. These are felonies. These are serious crimes.”
When guest host Malzberg shifted his questioning to Donald Trump’s earlier interest in Obama’s eligibility, Arpaio stated Trump had earlier been in contact with him regarding the current investigation.
“He sent me a little note after he saw we were onto something, congratulating me for taking this on,” said Arpaio. “So, he’s been quiet in all this, all at once with all the publicity directed toward me, now he sent a note saying, ‘Thanks.’ Now that’s good. … He knew we were doing it for quite a while, but the note came recently. I guess he figures I’m on to something.”
As WND reported, Michael Cohen, a top aide to Trump, confirmed that “The Donald” personally penned a handwritten note of congratulations to Arpaio following the Maricopa County sheriff’s Cold Case Posse news conference March 1 in Phoenix.
“Would you think of asking him for financial support if you needed that to continue the investigation?” asked Malzberg.
“You know, that’s a good point,” said Arpaio. “You know, maybe somebody should ask him. Maybe he should volunteer.”
