[ Is Rep. Maxine Waters Fit to Serve as Chair of House Financial Services Committee? ]
The Democrats will destroy the United States of America before this is all over. The idiots vote for idiots like this and Socialists. Too stupid even for their own sake.
Yeah, the toilet brush is “a nice touch!” Reminds us all of just what kind of work Maxine is suited for.
[Maybe some of her big business targets will finally get serious about fighting back.]
They should have gotten busy last summer and last fall. I imagine you agree.
Now they’ll have to fight on this front, too.
She uses her head to clean the head.
“Lack of qualifications is not a disqualifier. This is Congress.”
I think the government’s view on leadership is exemplified by the military. Any officer can do any job. This is manifestly not true. But, it’s how everything in the government has run forever. (The US survived Obama, arguably the most unqualified president in history.)
Letting Maxine take the job and create chaos may result in her destruction. She probably can’t create lasting harm as any real damage should become readily apparent quickly and Congress will be forced to step in with corrective action. Also, it is likely the courts will get involved, further exasperating the Democrat’s “crazy” problem. (Or, problem “with crazies.”)
It’s like having Idi Amin chair the human rights for the UN.
No. She is not even fit to be a Bathroom Janitor.
Could not pass a background check either.
SPJNK.
She will drain the federal treasury, open the spigots wide for every whim that she can have.
For the Left , she is an Alinsky dream.
For anyone fiscally responsible, she is a complete nightmare.
Maxine will threaten financial institutions unless they um-ah donate to her ‘charity’.
I’d like for someone to monitor and report her net worth rise while chairperson of this committee.
Sounds like an ideal finance member by democrat standards.
Keep an eye ,wait 2 eyes on her ,maybe she’ll go to jail ,LOL
I would describe her as unfit, with immunity.
Since people in the US put democrats back into the majority in the House the people in the US deserve what they get.
See any mobs in the streets raising Hell over the elections that were stolen to put them back in power? See any mobs in the streets raising Hell about the Mueller BS that's all the result of abuse of power? See any mobs in the streets raising Hell over Hillary still not under arrest?
Times have changed, the people who want to hang onto America as the Constitution established it haven't realized that and decided to do what it takes to regain control. Maybe Maxine can wake em' up.
JMHo
From a related thread on this issue …
Patriots are reminded that most (all?) of the powers now exercised by the Financial Services Committee are not reasonably based on any of Congress’s constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers imo.
In other words, Financial Services Committee steals and exercises 10th Amendment (10A)-protected state powers.
Insurance:
"4. The issuing of a policy of insurance is not a transaction of commerce within the meaning of the latter of the two clauses, even though the parties be domiciled in different States, but is a simple contract [emphases added] of indemnity against loss.” —Paul v. Virginia, 1869. (The corrupt feds have no Commerce Clause (1.8.3) power to regulate insurance.)
Banking:
“A proposition was made to them to authorize Congress to open canals, and an amendatory one to empower them to incorporate. But the whole was rejected, and one of the reasons for rejection urged in debate was, that then they would have a power to erect a bank, which would render the great cities, where there were prejudices and jealousies on the subject, adverse to the reception of the Constitution [emphasis added].” —Jefferson’s Opinion on the Constitutionality of a National Bank : 1791.
Also, regardless that the feds argue that the Federal Reserve is private, Jefferson's comment about a national bank indicates that the establishment of the Fed by Congress wrongly ignored state sovereignty imo.In fact, using grossly misleading terms like "concept" and "implicit" to describe 10A, here is what was left of that amendment by the time that FDR's activist justices got finished with it in Wickard v. Filburn.
10th Amendment: The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
"In discussion and decision, the point of reference, instead of being what was "necessary and proper" to the exercise by Congress of its granted power, was often some concept [???] of sovereignty thought to be implicit [??? emphases added] in the status of statehood." —Wickard v. Filburn, 1942.
Housing Industries:
"The power to regulate manufactures, not having been confided to congress, they have no more right to act upon it, than they have to interfere with the systems of education, the poor laws [emphasis added], or the road laws, of the states. Congress is empowered to lay taxes for revenue, it is true; but there is no power to encourage, protect, or meddle with manufactures." —Joseph Story, Article 1, Section 8, Clause 1, Commentaries on the Constitution 2
”... the care of the property, the liberty, and the life of the citizen, under the solemn sanction of an oath imposed by your Federal Constitution, is in the States, and not in the Federal Government [emphases added].” —Rep. John Bingham, Congressional Globe, 1866. (See about middle of 3rd column.)
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States."—Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
"It is one of the happy incidents of the federal system that a single courageous State may, if its citizens choose, serve as a laboratory; and try novel social and economic experiments without risk to the rest of the country.” — Justice Brandeis, Laboratories of democracy.
"The “Holy Grail” of organized crime is to control government power to tax." —me
"The constitutionally undefined political parties are basically competing, corrupt voter unions, union dues paid by means of unconstitutional federal taxes.” —me
"The smart crooks long ago figured out that getting themselves elected to federal office to make unconstitutional tax laws to fill their pockets is a much easier way to make a living than robbing banks." —me
"Federal career lawmakers probably laugh all the way to the bank to deposit bribes for putting loopholes for the rich and corporations in tax appropriations laws, Congress actually not having the express constitutional authority to make most appropriations laws where domestic policy is concerned. Such laws are based on stolen state powers and uniquely associated stolen state revenues." —me
Corrections, insights welcome.
Cannot believe the position she has. This is an uneducated arrogant criminal who knows nothing of finance and she is in control of it, WTF IS WRONG WITH US?
“She uses her head to clean the head.”
And with those lips, she can reach the underside of the rim!
Is this a trick question?
She isn’t fit to clean my bird’s cage.
Of course not, but the entertainment value and educational value of having her serve in that capacity is beyond measure
In our system, you get the government you deserve and a majority of Americans absolutely deserve Maxine Waters
