What Does Maxine Waters Actually Do In Congress?
2017-10-29

Maxine Waters (D-CA) has rebranded herself in the Trump Era as a strong public servant standing up to the corrupt, demagogic president. Repeatedly, she has harangued the president during speeches that range from AIDS fundraisers to LGBT Gala award dinners.

Today in Michigan, Waters led a raucous chorus at a women's rally, chanting "Impeach 45! Impeach 45!" But, people would be wise to remember that her career is one of corruption and failure.

Rep. Waters has passed just three bills in her 27 years in Congress. That means on average, Waters produces something noteworthy for constituents every 9 years. One of the bills was renaming a Post Office. Impressive stuff.

In the interim, she is busy making money for her family and allies. Her family has accrued more than a million dollars during her time in the House, according to Red Alert Politics.

Furthermore, the group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington has given Rep. Waters the most corrupt member of congress four separate times. Waters' shady financial dealings should concern all Americans. Democrats still have produced nothing that shows President Trump should be impeached, but financial kickbacks abound for liberal members of Congress like the "great stateswoman" Waters in a slew of various ways.

#10  Her job is to represent her district. Her district is largely populated with unemployable welfare druggies, thieves, and grifters. So...

So exactly why is that a snark?

#9  Her children of color are clerking,
Few shirking, and one or two twerking.
Though taxing, the District
Makes Max optimistic:
"Hey, looky here! Head Start is working!"

Agree that the visible million bucks is chickenfeed, but hasn't she been a river to her people? And there's the gruesome high-profile example set for millions of kids... who can put a price on that?
