House Democrats stripped Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) of her committee assignments, and some sought to expel her from Congress over her embrace of conspiracy theories and alleged endorsement of violence against prominent Democrats.
Now, the Georgia Congresswoman is planning to introduce a resolution to expel Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) from Congress after a video surfaced of her saying that protesters need to āstay on the streetā and āget more activeā if former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin is not found guilty of murdering George Floyd.
In series of tweets on Sunday, she wrote, āVery soon Iāll be introducing a resolution to expel from Congress for her continual incitement of violence on innocent American people. Rep Waters is a danger to our society.ā
āAfter traveling across state lines to incite riots, her orders recorded on video last night at the Brooklyn Center, directly led to more violence and a drive by shooting on National Guardsmen in Minnesota early this morning,ā she continued.
Finally, she claimed, āAs a sitting United States Congresswoman threatened a jury demanding a guilty verdict and threatened violence if Chauvin is found not guilty. This is also an abuse of power.ā
Waters traveled to Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, on Saturday and attended a police brutality protest.
āWeāre looking for a guilty verdict,ā she said of Chauvinās trial, adding, āAnd weāre looking to see if all of the talk that took place and has been taking place after they saw what happened to George Floyd, if nothing does not happen, then we know that weāve got to not only stay in the streets, but weāve got to fight for justice.ā
Watch the video below:
When asked what protesters should do if the jury does not return a guilty verdict, Waters said, āWeāve got to stay on the street, and weāve got to get more active, weāve got to get more confrontational. Weāve got to make sure that they know that we mean business.ā
Chauvin is facing murder and manslaughter charges in the death of Floyd, which spurred nationwide protests against racism and police brutality.
The jury in the trial is expected to hear closing arguments in the case on Monday.
