Maxine Waters repudiates Chauvin trial judge who criticized her 'confrontational' protest comments
Washington Examiner ^ | April 19, 2021 | Carly Roman

Posted on 04/19/2021 6:21:01 PM PDT by kevcol

Rep. Maxine Waters dismissed the concerns raised by a judge who criticized her encouraging protesters to get "confrontational" if former police officer Derek Chauvin is acquitted in the death of George Floyd.

"The judge says my words don’t matter," the California Democrat repeatedly said, according to CNN's Manu Raju.

When pressed on Judge Peter Cahill's observation that Waters's comments could be grounds for an appeal by the defense, Waters replied, "Oh, no, no, they didn’t."

By rules and procedures, judges are bound to be fearless and unwavering. Maxine’s particular kind of attempt at influencing the judge is unethical or worse.

Judge said her opinions dont matter. I.e....the opinions of a member of Congress don’t matter in the activities of the judicial branch...
Maxine is old.....she is the Donald Sterling of Congress....we think it’s leftist opinion...but it’s senility peeking through...

It’s been obvious all along that the left wants a not guilty verdict. They know that outcome will help them destroy the nation. They will see to it.

“Maxine talked about confrontation in the manner of the civil rights movement.”

The civil rights movement is not a license to block roads, burn buildings, and intimidate jurors.


Of course it is. Claiming to be a civil rights movement in fact does grant license to block buildings, burn buildings, and intimidate jurors as well as elected officials. As a bonus it grants immunity from the Wuhan China virus.

She is impossibly arrogant. She feels total entitlement to say whatever comes into her mind about anything.

Decent people of all races should be ashamed she is in our human race.

It's been a while since I looked, but I'm pretty sure the civil rights movement and mob justice weren't actually on the same side of things. Some might even go so far as to say the whole point of the civil rights movement was actually a reaction to crowds of people taking justice into their own hands and intimidating the equal application of the law... coincidentally while wearing masks to hide the identities of the vigilantes and mob participants.

If Chauvin gets convicted, they’ll riot. If he gets acquitted, they’ll riot. If there’s a mistrial, they’ll riot. The Marxist/BLM crowd are already primed for whatever outcome.

Yes, they have all the eventualities covered. Riot!

When someone incites riots and trouble... get them the heck out of the way... jail them!!

What would the world order or what would the dems in control do to us if we did what maxine did...

Look... we are too nice. Privileges and free speech goes so far with the left... but it can go forever from our side.

I am sick of being nice and letting the dems have their control to stack the courts... to make it so they don’t have another election... opening the gates of hell in the south border... Man! what are we anyway?

You talk about rep in congress being wimps... what are we? I want the likes of maxine shut up... she can’t do what she does... and she does it because no one stops her... why don’t they stop her? black? and that is a good reason????? woman? And that is a good reason??? where are the balls of our nation? they are getting what they want and not firing a shot...

and I am sick of it...fight or do something... for crying out loud... the whimsy is why they have the 3 powers anyway.. everyone kneeled and let them take Trump out... and put in a half man with half a mind... in control of the box!! have you lost your minds?!

I doubt this will go anywhere but it is a good thing to introduce it:

MTG To Introduce Resolution To Expel Maxine Waters From Congress for Her ‘Incitement of Violence’

And we just let BLACK racists, and other leftists, go on and on, praying and hoping that they will “come to their senses.”, et al.

THEY DON’T HAVE ANY!!!!

My town is red. If they want to burn down Minneapolis and other blue cities, let them.
