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."

He’ll get to appeal, but no appeals judge in his right mind will vote to overturn the verdict.
It’s mob rule.

You almost have to give her some kind of credit for sticking with stupid. There is some value to consistency.Mad Maxine has no other options.

"The judge says my words don’t matter,"I believe that the Judge is saying that your words DO matter and that it may be grounds for a new trial as you were trying to intimidate the jury.

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.Indeed, Congresswoman Waters is very arrogant...
She is very arrogant because she knows that she could get away with making outrageous comments...
Congresswoman Waters has a very safe district in Los Angeles County...She is not going to be voted out of office any time soon...
She will accuse people, who criticize her, of being racist...

The judge might have considered a contempt charge against her. It would hold zero legal weight (seperation of powers) but maybe it would embarass the gopes in congress to do something.
