Maxine Waters (D-CA) or be forced to own her words as the nation braces for possible riots this week.<\/p>\n<p>McCarthy told \u201cFox News Primetime\u201d that he believes that Waters\u2019 remarks rise to the level of a congressional censure, which, according to Democrat House Caucus rules, would result in Waters losing her position as chairwoman of the House Financial Services Committee.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI believe it rises to that level because Maxine Waters believes there is value in violence,\u201d McCarthy said. \u201cAnd now what she has said has even put doubt into a jury. You had a judge announce that it was wrong. I think this takes action especially when she has a pattern of this behavior.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI know there are probably 10 to 15 [Democrats] who would love to vote [for censure],\u201d McCarthy continued. \u201cIt will all come down to the pressure of what Democrats will put on them to just try to vote to table it, not even to have the discussion.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd if they hold together, then they are going to own what not only Maxine Waters has been saying but what Tlaib and the others about removing police officers and others,\u201d he added. \u201cThis has gone on too far and for too long.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>McCarthy\u2019s remarks come after Waters\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/democrat-maxine-waters-on-if-derek-chauvin-is-acquitted-get-more-confrontational-on-the-street\">said<\/a> at a protest in Minnesota over the weekend that \u201cprotesters\u201d were \u201clooking for a guilty verdict,\u201d and if they don\u2019t get what they want, then \u201cwe cannot go away.\u201d Regarding what \u201cprotesters\u201d should do if they do not get the verdict that they want, Waters responded that activists have \u201cgot to stay on the street,\u201d \u201cget more active,\u201d and \u201cget more confrontational.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/some-democrats-so-angry-at-maxine-waters-that-they-will-back-censure-resulting-in-her-losing-chair\">report<\/a> by a Fox News correspondent late on Monday night said that some Democrats were so angry with Waters that they may vote to censure her because they are worried about violent riots getting tied to her words and hurting them in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>McCarthy said in a statement over the weekend that he would take action against Waters if House Speaker Nancy Pelosi refused to do so. On Monday, Pelosi <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/pelosi-on-whether-maxine-waters-should-apologize-for-alleged-incitement-i-dont-think-she-should\">said<\/a> that she thought that Waters should not apologize, and White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/jen-psaki-dodges-whether-biden-agrees-with-maxine-waters-controversial-remarks\">avoided<\/a>\u00a0directly answering whether Biden supported Waters\u2019 remarks that protests should \u201cget more confrontational.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a statement on Monday, McCarthy\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/breaking-mccarthy-moves-to-censure-waters-for-inciting-violence-would-cost-waters-chairmanship\">announced<\/a>\u00a0that he would seek to censure Waters:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"11\">\n<p><em>This weekend in Minnesota, Maxine Waters broke the law by violating curfew and then incited violence. Increased unrest has already led to violence against law enforcement and her comments intentionally poured fuel on the fire. We\u2019ve 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. But Speaker Pelosi is ignoring Waters\u2019 behavior. That\u2019s why I am introducing a resolution to censure Rep. Waters for these dangerous comments, and I hope that all my colleagues \u2013 both Republican and Democrat \u2013 will stand up for peace on America\u2019s streets.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201c. @MaxineWaters has a long history of inciting unrest and supporting dictators who use violence to get what they want,\u201d Rep.
