The location has yet to be announced yet. Last year, when Joe Arpaio was planning to speak in Las Vegas, Metro tried to charge $50,000 for a permit for the costs of the expected protection of the venue from Antifa protestors. The Obama administration charged and convicted Joe Arpaio of contempt of court because his department continued to enforce immigration laws in the board town they patrol in violation of a federal court order. Last year President Trump pardoned Sheriff Arpaio sparking outrage on the left. Antifa is highly anticipated to be protesting the event in May. Metro has not issued any statement about how much they will charge the Clark County GOP for a permit for the event. Rob Lauer Political Reporter 360Daily.net
