Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio cut a wide swath even beyond his Arizona world where he was very big political fish. He became the voice for a type of tough justice that harkened back to the Wild West, when the lawman’s word was absolute and few worried about the rights of prisoners or immigrants.

Fox News Channel's Bill Hemmer asks GOP presidential candidate Sen. Rand Paul about criticism he gets from fellow Republicans like Lindsey Graham and John McCain.
SEN. RAND PAUL: This comes from a group of people wrong about every policy issue over the last couple decades. I'll give you a couple examples where they support the president's foreign policy and I don't.
They supported Hillary Clinton's war in Libya; they supported President Obama's bombing of Assad; they also support President Obama's foreign aid to countries that hate us. So if there is anyone who is most opposed to President Obama's foreign policy, it's me. People who call loudest to criticize me are great proponents of President Obama's foreign policy -- they just want to do it ten times over.
I'm only one actually standing up and saying the war in Libya was a mistake; the bombing of Assad would make ISIS stronger; the arms to the Islamic rebels would make ISIS stronger. So I'm really the one standing up to President Obama. And these people are essentially the lapdogs for President Obama and I think they're sensitive about that.
Their foreign policy is so disjointed, confusing, and chaotic, that really people need to reexamine those who want to be involved with any war. I think we get involved when there's an American interest. I think we have to militarily stop ISIS. But i'm sad that ISIS got a lot of weapons from interventionists in my party and the president who gave them weapons indirectly.

Nashua, N.H. Here are three propositions about the 2016 presidential race after a weekend in which 18 Republican candidates spoke to a crowd of party activists in New Hampshire and Hillary Clinton returned home after treading water and avoiding the press in Iowa.
One, the Republican field of candidates (and potential candidates) is far superior to the field of Republican candidates four years ago.
Two, the GOP candidates are fresher, livelier, and less touched by scandal than the Democratic frontrunner, Hillary Clinton.
