“In exercising her constitutional right to freedom of speech at a recent rally, Congresswoman Waters did not, as she has made clear, encourage violence, like President Trump has been doing since the election,” Richmond said....

It's like Obama never spoke at the University of Tucson about civility in politics. They all praised him back then, now it's different.

Correct. The negro sense of entitlement never fails. God forbid they would ever have to compete on their own merits.

Waters is a nasty race baiting witch who should be put out to pasture way out in the back country close to where the wolf pack lives. Since she sees boogey man around every bush let us make it real for her.

Her nasty hate filled mouth and her instigation of others to violence should be dealt with in a just and up front manner. Let this POS bark at the wolves for awhile and see how they deal with her irrational racist crap.

Richmond and the CBC are lying filth!

Trump has never advocated violence.

You might want to edit that ——there IS a Congressional Hispanic Caucus-—————it’s the whites and Asians who they don’t give a damn about.

What the white virtue-signalling Rats are going to learn is that the Crazy Black Caucus will throw them under the bus in a heartbeat—every single time.

Watching a black vs white power struggle within the Rat party is very entertaining. Woo woo!!!!

It’s a shame, I never though Fascism would take such a hold on any group in the USA. Now, it has.
