(CNSNews.com) - Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.), who previously has called for the impeachment of Donald Trump, on Thursday told a Congressional Black Caucus Town Hall on Civil Rights that she expects other members of the black community to back her up:
Don't come here and tell me, Maxine, you keep on doing what you do. But when you gonna give me some support? she asked. How many of you in your organizations have said, 'Impeach 45' ?
Waters urged the crowd not to get hung up on what law to invoke in the impeachment process:
Impeachment is about whatever the Congress says it is. There is no law that dictates impeachment. What the Constitution says is high crimes and misdemeanors, and we define that.
Bill Clinton got impeached because he lied. Here you have a president, who I can tell you and guarantee you is in collusion with the Russians to undermine our democracy. Here you have a president who obstructed justice. And here you have a president who lies every day.
Thank God that the special counsel is beginning to connect the dots -- and understand Facebook's role in it and social media's role in it. When is the black community going to say, Impeach him? It's time to go after him. I don't hear you!
Don't another person come up to me and say, You go, girl. No, you go!
Waters received a standing ovation for her impeachment pep talk.
I would encourage conservative candidates to call her 3018 petition congressional; “Applications to renew the license to steal”

On this she is correct.
If she wants an all out civil war against 62 million living, legitimate citizens, this would do it, 100%.
Yes, Maxine's "right"—fortunately—in that impeachment is a political act. And in advocating for it, she's destroying her own party.
Let Maxine Waters keep being "right". You know where it will get her and her pathetic party? Electoral oblivion. The Democrats will be relegated to minority status—at both the federal and state levels—for decades to come.
Maxine Waters and her ilk are going to find out that the People are more "right" than she is.
As long as she is the face of the Democrat "opposition", the GOP will be in control of the majority in the government...
3018?
She’s older than I thought...................
High Crimes and Misdemeanors are terms of law. Sedition is a High Crime, Maxine.
It’s hard G-D work to be this stupid (applies, of course, to the Moms Mabley of the House as well as her acolytes).
Mad Maxine (D, $hitforbrains)
Not at all correct. She may have inadvertently stumbled into a factoid, but Mad Max isn’t”right” about anything.
Oopps
I would encourage opposing conservative candidates to call her 2018 2tition congressional; “Applications to renew the license to steal”
Same with Pelose
Oh gawd, the James Brown impersonator is at it again....
Ah yes, the so-called “formidable” Congressional Black Caucus—a mind-numbingly massive collection of hate and pure stupidity.
Keep braying like the ugly @ss that you are, Maxine!! And keep applauding her, you d@mn fools in the Black Caucus, LMAO!
No matter how stupid you are it is possible to amass a fortune while serving the people.
Doesn't work that way, Maxine.
It is scary, and its good that people see this lunacy on display. This kind of radical incitement and groupthink is see by many Americans for the emotional fanaticism that it is.
Run Maxine! Run!
She’s fund raising. It can’t be any simpler than that.
C’mon already.
Just ketch the freakin butterflies already...
So Mad Maxine doesn’t see the words, “high crimes and misdemeanors,” in the Constitution.
I’ll wager that mad max has never read the Constitution.

The most acute indigestion is caused, by the statements, speeches politicians make!
