    Arpaio was convicted of defying court order to stop violating #4thAmendment. It's a pardon of a govt official who ignored Bill of Rights.

        The bill of Rights and the 14nth amendment abrogate all previous portions of the constitution inconsistent with the amendments, yes?

        That's an interesting theory. As the author notes, it's never been tested to challenge the legitimacy of a pardon. /1

        But it does provide a basis for viewing such a pardon as an abuse of power & a failure to take care that the laws be faithfully executed. /2

        That of course is a basis for impeachment. That may be the only remedy here, for who has standing to challenge the pardon? /3

        Who could claim that they'd suffered a particularized injury from the pardon (as opposed to the racial profiling). /4

        One thing worth noting: acceptance of a pardon is generally considered an admission of guilt. The people who were unlawfully detained >> /5

        Well, we have a process to deal with that. Courts, appellate process, let the law rule. Arpaio is no victim. He has victimized many.
