Bruce Zuchowski, a Trump-supporting Republican, likened migrants to “human locusts” and called the vice president a “Flip-Flopping, Laughing Hyena.”

The sheriff’s department in Portage County, Ohio has been stripped of its election security duties after its MAGA sheriff said people displaying Kamala Harris signs in their yards should have their addresses recorded so illegal immigrants can be sent to their homes.

Portage County Sheriff Bruce Zuchowski, a Donald Trump-supporting Republican seeking re-election, likened migrants to “human locusts” and called Harris a “Flip-Flopping, Laughing Hyena” on his personal and campaign Facebook accounts earlier this month.

The Ohio Secretary of State’s Office determined last week that Zuchowksi’s post didn’t break state election laws, but local citizens expressed their discomfort with having an immigrant-hating MAGA sheriff in charge of protecting the vote.

Over 100 people attended an emergency meeting called by the local NAACP chapter, the *Ravenna Record-Courier *reported. Frank Hairson, the communications chair of the NAACP chapter said people told him: “They’re afraid to vote. They’re afraid to put signs in their yard.”

    editorial suggestion, possible slight correction: he’s a man looking [to manufacture] a pretense to harm. Dad was an attorney and took a wrongful death case against a PD a few towns over. The harassment he and the rest of the firm got just for taking the case wouldn’t end until we paid a couple years of bribes to the local pd via enrolling in the local captain’s karate dojo. the one benefit that came from it is us kids got to learn to recognize all the kinds of police officers and how to manage their expectations in police encounters.
