Waters has her say about Republican tactics in Congress in a Los Angeles Times op-ed piece she wrote, titled “I’m Not New to This.”
Congresswoman Maxine Waters has penned an editorial in which she maintains that critics are targeting her in a “blatant distortion of the truth.”
Waters attended a peaceful rally Saturday in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota to show her support in the fight against police brutality. When asked what protesters should do if there wasn’t a conviction, she responded: “We got to stay on the street. And we’ve got to get more active, we’ve got to get more confrontational.”
In an exclusive interview Monday with theGrio, Waters said, “I talk about confronting the justice system, confronting the policing that’s going on, I’m talking about speaking up. I’m talking about legislation. I’m talking about elected officials doing what needs to be done to control their budgets and to pass legislation.”
In an op-ed piece in The Los Angeles Times Thursday titled “I’m Not New to This,” Waters says that she believes the journey to the guilty verdict of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin for the murder of George Floyd was “painful and difficult.”
“Many of those who joined in the sustained protests last summer did so for the first time because of what happened to George Floyd and were motivated by their newfound understanding of the pain Black people endure in this country,” she writes.

A face like that could incite a riot of people fleeing from it.
Maxine Waters, BTW, like quite a few prominent Democrats, has had close ties to the Revolutionary Communist Party for many years, most often working through their various phony front groups, such as "World Can't Wait" and so-called "Refuse Fascism". RF is one of the organizations front and center to what is going on today. Thet are intimately linked with so-called Black Lives Matter".

The most notable example of such efforts occurred on April 29, 1992, when RCP members looted and trashed the downtown and government districts of Los Angeles, triggering the infamous Rodney King riots.
During the days immediately preceding the violence, RCP — which maintained close ties to the L.A. gangs known as the Crips and the Bloods — had circulated throughout South Central Los Angeles a leaflet featuring a statement by RCP National Spokesman Carl Dix, titled ‘It’s Right To Rebel’ — a quote popularized by Mao Zedong.
Encouraged by Dix, RCP activists helped lead the riots that would leave 58 people dead, more than 2,300 people injured, some 5,300 buildings burned, and $1 billion in property damaged or destroyed.
On the ten-year anniversary of the rioting, RCP member Joseph Veale fondly recalled the violence as ‘the most beautiful, the most heroic civil action in the history of the United States.’”

Brilliant historical post ETL,
thank you for posting this linkage between the Communist Black Party, Maxine Waters and BLM.
It defines them of enemies of the Constitution and enemies of our country.
