Can they be any more explicit that impeachment is simply all about a political attack and defeating Trump?
Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) made that clear again during an interview on Sunday on MSNBC.
She said that Democrats “will not stop” and said that there might be more impeachment activity coming.
From Free Beacon:
“The subpoenas that I have issued that have gone through the lower courts are now going to be heard at the Supreme Court in March,” Waters said during an appearance on MSNBC. “We will not stop. Whether or not that leads to another impeachment activity, I don’t know.”
Waters, who serves as chairwoman of the Financial Services Committee, has subpoenaed Deutsche Bank for President Donald Trump’s personal and professional financial records.
Imagine putting Waters in charge of the Financial Services Committee, when she herself used to be referred to Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington as “most corrupt” for her role in pushing a bailout for a bank tied to her family, according to the Daily Beast. The left appears to have forgotten all the allegations raised about her family profiting off her position when she began torching Trump and became resistance hero, “Auntie Maxine.”
If you thought House Intel Chair Adam Schiff (D-CA) ran an unfair committee, imagine a hearing led by Mad Maxine.
This is another unprecedented effort by the Democrats, trying to subpoena the records of the president to go on a fishing expedition to see what they can find. Again, something which is an abuse of power, isn’t supposed to happen, but still is. If this can be done to a president, it can be done to anyone they want to get, and it’s an incredibly scary violation of rights.
But she doesn’t even know what information might be in the records and may never get them, yet she’s still talking more impeachment and saying “we will not stop.”
She finishes off saying they must continue with the work that their constituents have elected them to do. Gee, when are they actually going to get around to that? Because they haven’t done anything but impeachment and meanwhile in Auntie Maxine’s city of Los Angeles they have record homelessness and outbreaks of typhoid.
Waters is not the first Democrat to suggest Congress might impeach Trump again. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) left open the possibility of new articles of impeachment against Trump. Rep. Al Green (D., Texas) has pushed for Democrats to reimpeach Trump if the Senate trial does not remove him. Last month, Rep. Karen Bass (D., Calif.) said Democrats would continue to push for impeachment if Trump is reelected in 2020. House Counsel Douglas Letter said that a second impeachment of Trump could be necessary if new evidence comes to light about the president’s conduct.
Waters has been arguing that Trump be impeached since he was elected.
