The reason those Democrats are reportedly mad at Waters doesn\u2019t appear to be based on any kind of moral conundrum they have with what she said, but rather because they are \u201cconcerned about the optics of potential violence being linked back to her and Democrats generally.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Pergram noted that Democrats\u2019 majority is so slim right now that they can only afford to lose two votes on their side. \u201cOne knowledgeable Democrat told Fox that some Democratic members are so angry at Waters now that they would relish the opportunity to censure her,\u201d Pergram concluded. \u201cSo, McCarthy\u2019s censure resolution may actually have legs.\u201d<\/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 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/jen-psaki-dodges-whether-biden-agrees-with-maxine-waters-controversial-remarks\">avoided<\/a> directly answering whether Biden supported Waters\u2019 remarks that protests should \u201cget more confrontational.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a statement on Monday, McCarthy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/breaking-mccarthy-moves-to-censure-waters-for-inciting-violence-would-cost-waters-chairmanship\">announced<\/a> that 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>Waters appeared to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/waters-confront-policing-a-chauvin-conviction-shows-protests-worked-gop-trying-to-get-kkk-money\">double down<\/a> on her remarks during an interview on Monday, claiming without evidence that Republicans were attacking her because they were trying to raise money from the \u201cKKK\u201d and \u201cwhite supremacists.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Waters claimed that her comments about being \u201cconfrontational\u201d were about \u201cconfronting the justice system\u201d and \u201cconfronting the policing that\u2019s going on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am not worried that they\u2019re going to continue to distort what I say. This is who they are and this is how they act,\u201d Waters said without providing any evidence that her opponents had distorted the comments that she made. \u201cAnd I\u2019m not going to be bullied by them.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Grio added:<\/p>\n<blockquote readability=\"12\">\n<p><em>If Chauvin is found guilty, however, Waters said it would signal activists and politicians calling for police reform are \u201cmaking some progress and that everything that we have done, including the protests, has led us to a point where we\u2019re being taken seriously and we\u2019re being treated fairly.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
