Riverside County, California, Sheriff Chad Bianco announced he would be voting for former President Donald Trump in November’s presidential election, adding that “it’s time to put a felon in the White House.”
Bianco explained: video On Instagram, he said he has “done everything” for “the last 30 years” to keep communities safe by arresting criminals and keeping them in prisons and jails.
The California sheriff added that he is “highly critical” of Governor Gavin Newsom (D), California Attorney General Rob Bonta and the state Legislature for cutting the budget, releasing inmates early, “passing laws that make it harder to stay in prison” and not seeming to care about “crime.”

“You know, for the last 30 years, I’ve done everything I can to arrest criminals, put them in jail, and keep our communities safe. I’ve kept them out of our neighborhoods,” Bianco began, before adding:
Over the last five years, I’ve been very critical of our governors who have cut the corrections budget, released prisoners early, and closed prisons. I’ve been critical of our state legislatures who have passed laws that make it harder to incarcerate people. I’ve been critical of changes to the law that allow prisoners to be released early. I’ve also been critical of our Attorney General who doesn’t seem to care about crime and is a real embarrassment to law enforcement.
Bianco went on to explain that the “love affair” that Governor Newsom and the state legislature have with criminals is “based on the belief that criminals are not responsible for their actions and are victims of society.”

California sheriff says Gov. Claimed Law enforcement is “systematically racist,” and legislators claim the law and justice system are systemically racist.
“I’m tired of it. I’m tired of it. I’m wondering if he’s had a change of heart, if he’s decided that maybe he was wrong,” Bianco added, adding:
And I’m going to change the team. Some of you are going to be mad. I know you’re going to be mad at me. I’m going to change the team. I think they’re working on something, but I don’t think they’re trying hard enough.
Bianco added that it’s time to put criminals in the White House, rather than “letting them out of prison” and giving them alcohol and drugs.
“I think it’s time to put a felon in the White House,” Bianco said. “2024 is Trump. Let’s save our country and make America great again.”
Bianco’s video was released days after a Manhattan jury convicted Trump of 34 counts of first-degree falsifying business records related to payments made to adult entertainment star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 presidential campaign.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Bianco has refused to enforce a stay-at-home order, explaining that he has no intention of “criminalizing business owners, single mothers, and other healthy individuals” who are trying to exercise their “constitutional rights.”
More recently, in January, Bianco praised blocked gun control legislation in the state, explaining that “California has a pro-criminal attitude that seems to target law-abiding gun owners in our state.”
