Breitbart News is taking aim at Speaker Paul Ryan Paul Davis RyanKenosha will be a good bellwether in 2020 At indoor rally, Pence says election runs through Wisconsin Juan Williams: Breaking down the debates MORE (R-Wis.), linking him to his Democratic counterparts after he condemned President Trump's pardon of former Sheriff Joe Arpaio.

"Ryan's move to throw in against the president's decision comes along with several Democrats, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer Chuck SchumerJacobin editor: Primarying Schumer would force him to fight Trump's SCOTUS nominee CNN's Toobin: Democrats are 'wimps' who won't 'have the guts' to add Supreme Court seats Republican senator says plans to confirm justice before election 'completely consistent with the precedent' MORE and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi among them, leveling similar criticisms," the conservative news outlet's Washington political editor, Matthew Boyle, wrote on Saturday.

Boyle's article was published just after Ryan broke with the president on pardoning Arpaio, who had been convicted of criminal contempt after he refused to follow a judge's order to stop racially profiling Latinos.

"The Speaker does not agree with the decision,” Ryan's spokesman, Doug Andres, told The Wall Street Journal.

“Law-enforcement officials have a special responsibility to respect the rights of everyone in the United States. We should not allow anyone to believe that responsibility is diminished by this pardon," he continued.

Trump's decision to pardon Arpaio, who has been tough on immigration, is likely to play well with his base.

This is not the first time Breitbart, which appeals to the president's populist base, has tied Ryan to Democrats.

It published a report during the campaign titled "He’s with her: Inside Paul Ryan’s months-long campaign to elect Hillary Clinton Hillary Diane Rodham ClintonJoe Biden looks to expand election battleground into Trump country Biden leads Trump by 12 points among Catholic voters: poll The Hill's Campaign Report: Biden goes on offense MORE president."

The news organization has not embraced Trump in recent days, however.

A senior Breitbart employee said that it is ready to help Ryan impeach Trump if he doesn’t follow through on his campaign promises, according to Vanity Fair.

Those comments came in the wake of Stephen Bannon's departure from the White House. Bannon returned to lead Breitbart after serving as Trump's chief strategist.
