A Sheriff can arrest literally anyone in his county. President, congressperson, governor - it doesn’t matter. Sheriffs hold a clear constitutional authority.
If every Sheriff in America did their duty of upholding the constitution with their citizens, we wouldn’t have a mess like this. They would have nowhere to go.

Interesting.
A week or so ago Trump tweeted out "Carona" instead of "Corona". So I did some cursory digging and came across this guy. He's a former Sheriff from Orange County.

Nice dig. A former sheriff - corrupt - who did time. May it be so with all the rest of the traitorous lawbreakers.

So long as they are not on their way to Congress or performing work on behalf of Congress in official capacity.

So almost never would a Sheriff be disallowed with how often Congress works.

I thought their only immunity was that they could not be arrested for anything they said on the floor.
