Maxine Waters ‘Guarantees’ That Trump Colluded With Russia
The Daily Caller ^ | 12:08 PM 09/21/2017 | Chuck Ross

Posted on 09/21/2017 4:37:08 PM PDT by Texas Fossil

California Rep. Maxine Waters is not a member of any of the Congressional committees investigating possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian government. She also has no particular insight into Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s probe of Russian meddling. But that didn’t stop the Democratic lawmaker from offering up a “guarantee” on Thursday that Trump colluded with the Kremlin during last year’s presidential campaign.

“Here you have a president who I can tell you and guarantee you is in collusion with the Russians to undermine our democracy,” Waters boldly told an audience at an event for the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation in Washington, D.C.

“Impeachment is about whatever the Congress says it is,” bellowed Waters.

Total Certifiable ComDem Insanity!

Aunty Maxine is a racist, big mouth, liberal. She doesn’t even live in her district amoung her peeps. She lives in a multi million dollar mansion away from the riff raff that votes for her. I pray the old bat loses her election.

Well Maxine.... our nation is a republic and it’s the democracy part that is killing us. Maybe it needs undermining.

Maxine’s guarantees are worth about as much as the paper they are written on....

A guarantee is not a guarantee if its provisions cannot be put into plain language, or even honored when it comes time for performance.

Lawyer language will get you nowhere, fast.

The 14th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States:

All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

The so-called birthright citizenship clause:

All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.

There are two tests here.  

Lets look at test one.

Here's how Leftists read it.


All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.

Does this grant citizenship to all persons born in the United States?

On the face of it no.  It doesn't even come close to saying that.

The inclusion of an additional stipulation in addition to simply being born on our soil, renders this a false premise.  All persons are not granted citizenship for having been born here, without being judged to be under the jurisdiction thereof.

For this reason, it is a false premise to state every person born in the United States is a citizen
.

Now lets look at test two.

...and subject to the jurisdiction thereof...

Leftists love to claim that illegal aliens must abide by the laws of the United States (all except immigrating legally, I presume).  This they use as primafacia evidence that illegals aliens "...are subject to the jurisdiction thereof,...".

Is that true?  NO, and it's a very easy thing to test.

The very inclusion of this verbage in the amendment deligitimizes this claim.

If being on U.S. soil made illegal aliens "...subject of the jurisdiction thereof..." all by itself, this further stipulation would not have been provided.

If all illegal aliens were subject to the jurisdication thereof, the Citizenship claus would read, "
All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside."

Jurisdiction language would not be necessary, and it would not have been included.

The jurisdiction language had to be addressing something different than merely being present in the United States, when being born.

Conclusion:


The 14th Amendment does not grant citizenship to illegal aliens born on U.S. soil.

Maxine is both stupid and insane.

The number of such people in congress is frightening. And most of them are ComDems. Some, card carrying Coms.

I know of 2 in Congress who personally received special service awards from the Communist Party USA. FACT.

One of them was video taped leaving the award ceremony in Chicago.

I thought members of Congress were immune from slander charges only while they were speaking from the floor of the congressional chamber. Perhaps this should be tested?

“Here you have a president who I can tell you and guarantee you is in collusion with the Russians to undermine our democracy,” Waters said

Well, well, will she put her political career where her mouth is? I would say to Representative Waters that if this is a heart felt conviction, she should make a deal with President Trump for him to step down if it's true and if it's false then Maxine Waters should step down. What would she say to that? I predict that she would decline because she knows IT IS A FALSE STATEMENT. She is an dictatorial agitator that is against all the principles that this country is founder on and should be shunned, ignored and driven from office.

Everytime I inadvertently read something this idiotic woman says I wonder why we print anything she says.

Isn’t there something like a “print pariah”? Let’s make her one. And Hillary, too.

You have a very valid point.

She is similar to Kim Jong-un
