Maxine Waters’ Career May Be Finished — New Scandal Revealed
Right Wing News ^ | 11/16/2018 | RWN Staff

California Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters is certainly no stranger to controversy and scandal. In fact, she wallows in it. Waters strikes me as someone who believes she is above the law and can get away with whatever she wants. It’s one of the reasons she is seen as one of the most corrupt politicians in Congress.

A new complaint has been filed against Waters and it and the new unfolding scandal surrounding the complaint has the potential to finish off her career. The complaint involves an obscure fundraising tactic that has raked in thousands of dollars from state politicians in exchange for being listed on her slate mailers. This go-around, it involves supporters of a former Los Angeles mayor defeated in the June gubernatorial primary.

A conservative watchdog group named the National Legal and Policy Center is the one who filed the complaint with the Federal Election Commission against Waters, her campaign and a pro-charter school group called Families and Teachers for Antonio Villaraigosa — which backed the former Democratic mayor of Los Angeles.

Whoever filed the complaint is obviously racist.

Will only be discussed in conservative circles. Don’t waste your time in thinking anything will happen to her.

I agree. Politicians have been doing this for years, and I don’t necessarily see a problem with the concept. (That is the concept of joint campaign literature - the question of how it’s paid for is another story.)

I suppose it’s fine if each campaign pays for their share, but what if the campaign won’t pay?

I recall a certain candidate for state senate in PA endorsing Mike Dukakis in 1988 - clearly he sensed that Dukakis was going to win the Democrat nomination, and he was trying to woo Dukakis’ supporters.

Should he have been forbidden from mentioning the endorsement if the Dukakis campaign didn’t pay their share?

Nothing short of murder will ever get to this creature. That said, even she’d probably get off on a murder charge as well.

All I did was post the graphic -- you have a problem with it, then you need to put up or shut up. Got it? You must have some reason to make your claim, otherwise you're just talking out of your ass. I'm still waiting for the last such commenter to come through with documentation, and so far, nada.

I want her to stay. It’s not like her replacement will be a conservative. Might as well have the crazy black lady.
