Maxine Waters: Congress Has ‘Responsibility’ to ‘Impeach Trump’ for ‘High Crimes’
breitbart.com ^ | 22 Aug 2018

Posted on 08/22/2018 6:45:09 PM PDT by Helicondelta

On a day when top Democrats like House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) tried to downplay any talk of impeaching President Donald Trump, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) declared that it is Congress’s “responsibility” to impeach Trump for “high crimes.” Pelosi has previously said that “any discussion of impeachment” would be a “gift to Republicans” and claimed on Wednesday that impeachment is “not a priority” for Democrats.

But after Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to various campaign finance violations on Tuesday, Waters could not restrain herself, tweeting about impeachment hours after Pelosi signaled to Democrats to downplay the issue.

“Cohen admitted Trump instructed him to break the law. If it’s a crime for Cohen, it’s a crime for Trump. Debates about whether you can indict a president do not excuse Congress from its responsibility to impeach Trump for ‘treason, bribery, or other high crimes & misdemeanors,’” Waters tweeted.

Congress first has the responsibility to sanction Mad Maxine and not let her near any committees.

Mad Maxine did NOT read Pelosi’s memo on turning DOWN the rhetoric, LOL!

Keep yappin’, Maxie...all the way to November 6, 2018!

We LOVE you! *SNORT*

The bat has been beating that drum with the same rhythm since the day after the election in 2016.

Anyone else notice - the better the economy, the more accomplishments that benefit our whole nation come from the Trump administration, the louder and more poisonous the hate rolls his direction?

The entire “Russian” deal is a huge scam (the real collaboration was involving the Clintons and her campaign) - and her long-standing Russia ties.

Yes - Russia engineered #fakenews and launched lots of fake social media accounts to try to influence the election - but the influence was inflammatory attempts at dividing this nation in general - as they pushed fake news pro and against BOTH political parties. It’s all about dividing to conquer.

And the stinking donkey Maxine Waters (you know - the woman who models her hairstyle after James Brown) - she has been part of the swamp who would literally say or do ANYTHING to prevent the ship of this nation from being steered any less Left-ward from the Obama/Clinton agenda (which is just another route to Bernie Sanders Socialism). Her political ideology and methodology (hateful spewing) would make Martin Luther King Jr. blush... She is a disgrace in so many ways -

Mel Brooks? Right? Hope it’s released before the mid-terms. That and a new Justice Kavannah will make me smile.

If it’s a crime for Cohen, it’s a crime for Trump.

If it's a crime for Podesta, it's a crime for Hillary.

If it's a crime for Rahm Emmanuel, it's a crime for Obama.

If it's a crime for Bruce Ohr, it's a crime for Mueller.
