CSPOA Washington State Rally, Law Enforcement Appreciation & Constitutional Rights - 1/6/26

January 06, 2026

Join Sam Bushman and Sheriff Richard Mack for this Liberty RoundTable episode recorded on January 6, 2026, discussing the critical importance of defending the Office of Sheriff and constitutional law enforcement in America.


In this broadcast, Sam and Sheriff Mack cover:


• The Washington State Battle: Why Washington has become ground zero for attacks on elected sheriffs, with state officials attempting to convert sheriffs from elected to appointed positions or restrict their constitutional authority


• Law Enforcement Training: The need for proper constitutional training for peace officers, including understanding their oath of office, due process rights, and community policing principles


• Historical Lessons: From Rosa Parks to the Fugitive Slave Act—examining when officers must stand against unjust laws and defend constitutional rights


• The CSPOA Mission: How the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association educates sheriffs, law enforcement, and the public about limited constitutional government


• Upcoming Washington Event: Details about the Friday press conference featuring General Michael Flynn, Friday night rally, and Saturday training sessions


• Separation of Powers: Understanding how the three branches of government exist at the county level, where the sheriff serves as the executive branch closest to the people


• Current Threats: Discussion of border security, deportation efforts, and why locally elected sheriffs are the last line of defense for citizens' constitutional rights
