Rep. Hakeem Jeffries Blasts McCarthy for Wanting To Censure Maxine Waters: ‘Clean up Your Mess’

Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) is telling House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) to “clean up your mess” after introducing a resolution to censure Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.).

“When you think that Kevin McCarthy has the nerve to say something about anyone, when he supported the violent insurrection after the mob attacked the Capitol, threatened to assassinate Nancy Pelosi, kill other members of Congress, hang Mike Pence. He then came back to the Capitol, voted to support the big lie, which ignited the violent insurrection, and continues to play footsie with Donald Trump,” Jeffries said on Tuesday.

He added, “When you’ve got a situation where Lauren Boebert is a mess. Matt Gaetz is a mess. Marjorie Taylor Greene is a mess. Clean up your mess, Kevin. Sit this one out.”

Watch his remarks below:

McCarthy accused Waters on Monday of “inciting violence in Minneapolis” after she urged protesters to be “more confrontational.”

He tweeted, “Maxine Waters is inciting violence in Minneapolis — just as she has incited it in the past. If Speaker Pelosi doesn’t act against this dangerous rhetoric, I will bring action this week.”

On Monday, the House minority leader introduced a resolution to censure Waters for her “dangerous comments.”

He said in a statement, “We’ve heard this type of violent rhetoric from Waters before, and the United States Congress must clearly and without reservation reprimand this behavior before more people get hurt.”

Waters doubled down on her comments, saying, “The whole Civil Rights movement is confrontation.”

During an interview with The Grio, Waters also said, “I am nonviolent.”

Greene introduced a resolution to expel Waters From Congress on Monday.

“Rep Waters is a danger to our society,” Greene tweeted on Sunday.

Responses

  1. Why won’t they even censure idiot Waters when they impeached Trump for saying less? Just because they know that she is crazy and not to be listened to doesn’t mean that the people who want to cause violence don’t hear her comments as a go ahead to do anything they want.

  2. Blacks and Democrats can riot, destroy and say anything. They are covered by the Democrat State Media and the corrupt party of the Democrats. Republicans on the other hand, can’t say a word or be accused of insurrection or sedition. Democrats have stolen the Presidency and Senate seats. They are about to seize control of the Supreme Court by corruption. Then the Constitution will be eliminated. It’s time for a revolution.
