Democrats Sickeningly Going After GOP For Wanting To Shut Maxine Waters Up!

WIth every day that goes by, we continue to realize that the Democrats in the House and the Senate will stop at nothing to get their way. The latest development is that the Democrats are now threatening retaliation after House Republicans forced a vote regarding whether to censure Rep. Maxine Waters because of her explosive regarding the Derek Chauvin trial.

 



ONe of the reasons that Republicans wanted to take action against Waters is because she urged Minnesota protesters to “be more confrontational” if Chauvin had been found not guilty. Needless to say, the judge who presided over Chauvin’s trial was not happy about these comments, and he even admitted that it was a possibility that Chauvin’s attorneys could use them as a strong argument during their appeal. Additionally, the lawyers even attempted to use them to cause a mistrial in the current trial!

 

The Details

 

Prior to addressing the GOP’s measure to censure Waters, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-Maryland) warned the GOP that their measure would actually make it harder for the Democrats not to justify taking action against the GOP in the future. Basically, He was saying, “We’ll remember this in the future when you guys act up also.”

 

“As my friend – [House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy] knows – we still do not have all of the resolutions that my side of the aisle had originally introduced,” he said. “This is going to make it harder not to proceed on some of these resolutions on my side of the aisle.”

 

The threat seems to underscore the fact that lawmakers seem to have much fewer qualms about imposing severe punishments such as censure or expulsion. This is probably due in part to the insurrection that occurred at the capitol at least three months ago. MOreover, it seems to be a microcosm of just how polarized this current political environment has truly become. Interestingly enough, this threat of retaliation is already starting to happen in some Democratic circles! Democratic Representative Jimmy Gomez (Calif.) has already started to pursue action against a rival Republican. He announced on Tuesday that he was going to introduce a measure that would expel Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Georgia) from Congress.

 

Of course, GOmez had initially introduced a measure to expel Greene as early as March, accusing the GOP freshmen of “advocating violence against our peers, the government, and the speaker.”

“Any member who will incite political violence and continue to threaten our lives must be expelled,” Gomez said during that time.

 

This GOmez guy is a real piece of work, to say the least. He also said that he plans on using these activities as a springboard to start his brand-new initiative called the “America First Caucus” because he wants more Democrats to join his efforts against Greene and others like her.

 

“Everyone, and that includes GOP House Leadership, knew that this was nothing more than an effort to promote white supremacy in the United States Congress,” Gomez wrote to his fellow Democrats in a letter. “I hope everyone will join me,” he continued. “

 

Democrats were able to kill the measure to censure Waters simply because it split down party lines, but I’m still proud that the GOP took a stand against her comments.
