Black female leaders and allies are blasting House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for what they see as their “failure” to protect Rep. Maxine Waters from “unwarranted attacks from the Trump administration and others in the GOP.”
“We write to share our profound indignation and deep disappointment over your recent failure to protect Congresswoman Waters from unwarranted attacks from the Trump Administration and others in the GOP,” the group of nearly 200 women wrote in a letter sent Tuesday. “That failure was further compounded by your decision to unfairly deride her as being ‘uncivil’ and ‘un-American.’”
“In doing so, we believe this mischaracterizes her call to action for peaceful democratic assembly and the exercise of her constitutional rights to free speech in support of defenseless immigrant children and their families,” the women wrote.
The group of black female leaders includes activists, religious leaders, academics, local elected officials, and some men.
“Disparaging or failing to support Congresswoman Waters is an affront to her and Black women across the country and telegraphs a message that the Democratic Party can ill afford: that it does not respect Black women’s leadership and political power and discounts the impact of Black women and millennial voters,” the women wrote.

Sounds to me like Shuemer is a bit ‘uncomfortable’ defending the black woman from attacks from white males.
I’ve posted on a number of threads this year that I have had this gut feeling that somebody big on the political Left is going to be die and go to his/her place of eternal torment prior to the election.
I’m talking someone big enough to dominate headlines. I don’t mean a second- or third-stringer like the odious Ed Schultz, news of whose passing brought a smile to my face this morning.
Mad Maxine? Anyone carrying around all that hate seems to be a good candidate for a stroke.
Let’s start a “3M” movement. “MAKE MAXINE MOVE”!
if she says that she represents the people of District 43, then let her damned well live there. Otherwise, she will have to forfeit her seat and give back her salary since she started perpetrating this fraud on congress.
Chanting “Move, Maxine, Move”.
Probably would be the first time in decades that she had a real “movement”. How do I know? Easy! She’ so full of shit that her wig keeps trying to escape.
“Maxine Waters owed an apology from top Dems for not protecting her against Trump verbal attacks...”
The citizens of her District are owed an apology from the Democrat Party for continuing to allow a total moron to represent them.
The long lost brother of James Brown.

Maxine Waters is an idiot among idiots. And everyone knows it. Including these “black female leaders”.
