Maxine Waters Under Ethical Scrutiny, Transferring $100K to Daughter from Campaign Funds
Western Journal ^ | May 21, 2018 | Randy DeSoto

Democrat California Congresswoman Maxine Waters is slated to pay her daughter over $100,000 in campaign funds this election cycle

...

Karen Waters ...had collected approximately $650,000 as of April for running the slate mail operation for her mother over multiple election cycles.

That figure will top over $750,000 by the end of this cycle.

...

The liberal watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington named Waters one of the “most corrupt” members of Congress in 2011.

“In the midst of a national financial catastrophe (following the 2008 stock market crash), Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) used her position as a senior member of Congress and member of the House Financial Services Committee to prevail upon Treasury officials to meet with OneUnited Bank,” CREW explained. “She never disclosed that her husband held stock in the bank.”

...

According to CREW, her husband had also previously served on the board in what is billed as “America’s largest black owned bank.” The Washington Examiner reported the bank received $12 million in bailout funds from the federal government.

...

Omar Navarro, Waters’ 2018 Republican challenger, dinged his rival for .. living in a mansion outside of the 43rd congressional district she represents, which is located on the south side of Los Angeles.

“Where is Maxine Waters going?” he tweeted. “Maybe #HancockPark to the 4.3 Million Dollar Mega home outside the district.”

Maxine Waters, the black Robin Hood.
Steals from the poor, keeps it and grows rich.

I said it before the election HilLIARy could cook and eat a live baby on the Capitol steps, and the media would marvel at her ‘culinary skills’

This applies to almost every democrat.

Here’s the dilemma, we all agree women should make as much as men for the same job, BUT, How do we determine amount of work that goes into a no show job so that men doing nothing don’t get paid more than women doing nothing?

Coincidence ? I wonder.

The only way to fight back against the corrupt Democrats is to move against as many as possible. Put them on the defensive.

Count down before Maxine begins to yell RACISM

The ruling elite. It makes laws for the common herd that it despises. It lives high off the hog, on money that it extracts from us. And then it scorns us.

Censure her. Fine her. Kick her out of office, but keep her in a zoo so we can all see the extremes that leftist insanity can go to.

I am surprised how everyone with a national microphone lets her get by with saying “impaych 45” rather than “impeach 45 “.

Maxine is an average Black Congressional Caucus member whose ethics are typical of that group.

Maxine is a mirror reflection of the people in the district she represents.

They are correct when they say there are two Americas.

FYI all: In Politically Correct speak, violent feral youth, especially of the Amish variety, are said to be “vibrant”. The noun form describing them is VIBRANTS. Maxine Waters is a Vibrant!

She’s been paying her daughter out of campaign funds for a while now. I believe she gets paid for mailing out envelopes. $700,000 ain’t bad money for doing what disabled people do to survive every day.

Blacks love how she’s “getting over on Whitey!” Her lawlessness is actually a political asset to her because of her “black constituency!” And think of the chutzpah of her incessant prattling about how crooked Trump is. Well, we can giver her that she certainly knows how to be corrupt. Too bad it just doesn’t fit President Trump.

the next $100,000 she steals could move her crazy fat arse back into the congressional district she supposedly “represents” (”suppresses” or “rips off” are far more accurate...ha!)

“Time to bring this lunatic down.”

The problem is only gravity or a heart attack will “bring her down!” And when and if she dies, she will get a funeral cortege as good as any Black drug dealer would get.

worked for the youth authority One year there was settlement between the state and a case action suit. The settlement required the state to send out a mailing opt every residence in California. We got 50 inmates together and they did the mailings for better lunches.
