U.S. Rep. Maxine Waters, D-California, has cancelled a planned trip to Birmingham due to security concerns. She was scheduled to speak Friday at an annual conference for black female politicians, local officials and community leaders.
Waters was supposed to address an audience of black women for the National Organization of Black Elected Legislative (NOBEL) Women's Annual Legislative Conference, which starts today and ends Sunday. But NOBEL President Karen Camper, a state representative from Tennessee, confirmed that Waters was no longer coming because of security reasons. Details about the safety concerns have not been released and it's not known if a specific threat were made.
Waters' cancellation comes during a time when both Republican and Democratic lawmakers are criticizing remarks she made during an immigration rally telling citizens to publicly confront members of President Donald Trump's administration. Her statement was made in response to Trump's "zero tolerance" immigration policy, which led to the separation of children from families at the Mexico border.
"Let's make sure we show up wherever we have to show up," Waters said during the rally. "And if you see anybody from that cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. And you push back on them. And you tell them they're not welcome anymore, anywhere. We've got to get the children connected to their parents."
Multiple lawmakers, such as House Majority Kevin McCarthy, have asked Waters to apologize for her statements.
"We have to have civility," McCarthy told Fox News during an interview on Monday. "I can disagree with somebody philosophically, but to personally attack -- to remove somebody and not serve them? What's interesting to me, the people who claim tolerance seem to be the most intolerant in this process."
Karma’s a b*tch.
That Florida congresswoman Fredricka Wilson with the loony spangled cowboy hats opened her big trap last October and set up a situation where she called out the President for not being politcally correct enough when he made a condolence call to a black soldier's wife. She soon was the subject of memes, tweets, political cartoons, etc. We haven't heard from her since.
“That Florida congresswoman Fredricka Wilson with the loony spangled cowboy hats opened her big trap last October “
Oh, my gosh! You’re right! I had forgotten about that loon.
Somehow, the Democrats are maintaining some discipline on their idiots. I wonder what mechanism they are using, because people like Mad Max and Fredricka, being idiots, are
notoriously hard to silence.
It is probably a matter of how the survey organization listed the choices for those whom they surveyed. Some A-A's do not like being termed black, and vice versa.
In her original screed she dropped this tidbit regarding the invaders from the south:
“We’ve got to get the children connected to their parents.”
How connected are 80% of the children of her district to their fathers?
The most powerful man on the planet called her bluff. She can be squashed like a bug at this point.
JUST KEEP TALKIN' BIATCH!
She’s afraid of other democrats attacking her.
security? bullsh!t... nobody wants it dead, we want it alive as the new face of the RAT party for the coming elections!
Gosh Mad Maxine, that is a real shame (/sarc), but I don’t recall you encouraging “peaceful protests”, I recall you inciting harassment and pestering and mobs. Too bad for you. You can’t hide on the Congressional elevator forever.
