Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) Encourages BLM Rioters to Get More Violent

This is not the first time Waters has publicly called for violence against political opponents. In 2018, while speaking to supporters in Los Angeles through a megaphone, Waters encouraged her followers to harass and mob Trump supporters and Trump Administration officials if they were seen in public.

 American Greatness "Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) spoke to a gathering of rioters in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota on Sunday and encouraged them to cause more violence if they do not get the outcome they like in the trial of Derek Chauvin, as reported by the Daily Caller.

"The radical Democrat, wearing a mask and goggles, falsely declared that Chauvin, a former Minneapolis police officer, was guilty of “murder” in the death of George Floyd last year. Floyd died in police custody after being arrested by Chauvin and three other officers for erratic behavior that was consistent with being under the influence of drugs; the autopsy report later confirmed that Floyd did indeed die of a fentanyl overdose.

" 'We’ve got to stay on the street,” Waters said, “and we’ve got to get more active, we’ve got to get more confrontational. We’ve got to make sure that they know that we mean business.” Waters was speaking at a riot that was ostensibly happening in response to the more recent death of Daunte Wright, who was killed by a police officer when she accidentally reached for her firearm instead of her taser; Wright had a criminal history that included a then-pending case for aggravated robbery, and had an outstanding warrant for his arrest at the time he was shot." . . .

Joe Collins, a Navy veteran who ran against Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., in November argues that she is 'very dangerous' and her actions and rhetoric are 'absolutely irresponsible.'

America’s Racial Self-Flagellation at the UN Only Helps Rogue States -

  Noah Rothman, Commentary Magazine

. . . "For some reason, the Biden administration seems to want to give that sort of craven propagandizing a boost.

"Racial discrimination against minorities is a chronic sickness in American society.”

“…the challenges facing the United States in human rights are deep-seated. They did not just emerge over the past four years, such as Black Lives Matter.”

“[S]lavery is the original sin of America. It’s weaved white supremacy and black inferiority into our founding documents and principles.”

"What distinguishes these relatively similar remarks about America’s flawed past and imperfect present? The first two were delivered by Communist Chinese officials in an effort to embarrass the United States on the world stage. The third is an indictment of the United States by the United States itself. 

"That particular remark comes from the head of the American mission to the United Nations, Linda Thomas-Greenfield, in a March speech before the UN General Assembly. She recently reiterated the themes of that speech in an address to the non-profit group founded by Rev. Al Sharpton, the National Action Network. “Of course, when we raise issues of equity and justice at the global scale, we have to approach them with humility,” Thomas-Greenfield conceded. “We have to acknowledge that we are an imperfect Union and have been since the beginning.' ” . . .

>Genius Maxine Waters just made herself a great defense witness in her lawsuit against Trump

I honestly relish the thought of Waters testifying under oath before a lawyer hired by Trump. It would be glorious if this took place at the same time as Congress was vettng her continued membership.

 Thomas Lifson   "By traveling across state lines to incite the mob in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, Maxine Waters has opened the door on her possible expulsion from Congress, as Andrea Widburg notes today. But she may have shot herself in her other foot when it comes to the lawsuit she and other Democrats have filed against former President Trump over the January 6 Capitol incursion. Jonathan Turley explains:

Waters insists that Trump telling his supporters to go to the Capitol to make their voice heard and "fight" for their votes was actual

 

criminal incitement. Conversely, Waters was speaking after multiple nights of rioting and looting, telling protesters to stay on the streets and get even more confrontational.

Waters has now guaranteed that she could be called as a witness by Trump in his own defense against her own lawsuit.
