Waters Caught Steering $1.2 Billion to Obama Flunkies
Conservative Tribune ^ | FEBRUARY 3, 2018 | BENJAMIN ARIE

The job of Congress is to represent the people and put the nation’s best interests first. It looks like Maxine Waters has a very different objective: Funnel as much taxpayer money to leftist cronies as possible.

According to Judicial Watch, the longtime liberal lawmaker has introduced a bill that moves over a billion dollars to “Obamacare navigators,” who conveniently happen to almost always be leftist organizations.

“A fraud-infested Obamacare ‘outreach’ program will get an astounding $1.2 billion from American taxpayers if legislation introduced by a veteran congresswoman becomes law,” the watchdog group explained.

The House ethics committee in 2010 outlined its charges against Rep. Maxine Waters, who is accused of helping a bank in which her husband owned stock secure federal bailout funds.

According to the 8 year old article the committee charged the 10-term California Democrat with three counts of violating House rules and the federal ethics code in connection with her effort to arrange a 2008 meeting between Treasury officials and representatives with OneUnited bank.

And she has the unmitigated gall to call out President Trump.

I bet at least 10% of that $1.2B gets back to the Party, probably twice that.

Not a rat house as Democrat rat. Think back to the Congressional Post Office scandal involving members from both parties. They believe they have the job of steeple sheering.

May The Lord use President Trump to allow us to teach them otherwise. Oh to be able to sit on a grand jury investigating the swamp in D.C.

Term Limits

Article V Convention of States

No more Maxines, Conyers, (Conyers, the longest-serving member currently in Congress, resigned a seat he’s held for more than five decades after a series of accusations alleging sexual misconduct.), Schumers, Nadlers, and other dinosaurs who have figured out how to work the system and 'retire' from Congress after many years as multimillionaires.

Term Limits!

I’m not (i.e. MadMax the Grinning Reaper), but Red Max(ine) would do anything to get votes, pad her pockets, support our country’s enemies, and get headlines in the media.

She is proof that insanity, criminality and Marxism can coexist in a single mind.

An old adage describes her to a tee - “A wasted mind is a sad thing”.

Also: “If the wig fits, wear it”

“Stupid, hateful and rich is no way to go through life if you’re an honest Democrat”.

Obamacare was constructed as nothing but a big money laundry.........all the lefties got a cut.

Starting with Michelle’s incompetent school chum who got about $6 billion tax dollars for the flawed computer system that never worked.

The aye Democrat votes were being bought 24/7........to make Obama look good. Mary Landrieu apparently served as the bag lady....Harry Reid “accidentally” gave her another $6 billion.

The atrocity’s PR budget-—completey untraceable-—had several more billion to wire-transfer offshore.

You have no idea how cheap the corruption in DC is. The return to the politicians is a penny on the dollar if they are really lucky.

Make that Dixie Peach and Colt 45, two products with whom she’s well aware.

“Not a rat house as Democrat rat. Think back to the Congressional Post Office scandal involving members from both parties.”

And let’s not forget the Savings & Loan Scandal, an the Keating Five, one of whose members was John McCain III. I just hope his life expectancy is measured in weeks at this juncture. Then, he can go to Hell and catch up with his “buddy,” Teddy Kennedy and hopefully we can get someone with integrity to replace him.

MAxine Waters, busy funding Obama liberal fascist criminals who are nothing more than racketeers?

Investigate them under RICO, and jail them , including Maxine “The Mouth” Watters. She is a reincarnation of Bugsy Moran.
