We\u2019re looking for a guilty verdict. And we\u2019re looking to see if all of this [inaudible] 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 we\u2019ve got to not only stay in the street, but we\u2019ve got to fight for justice, but I am very hopefully and I hope that we\u2019re going to get a verdict that will say guilty, guilty, guilty.

That\u2019s what he continues to call for and what he continues to believe is the right way to approach responding.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/kevin-mccarthy-i-will-bring-action-against-maxine-waters-for-inciting-violence-if-pelosi-doesnt\">said<\/a> on Sunday that if Pelosi did not take action against Waters that he would be forced to do so.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMaxine Waters is inciting violence in Minneapolis \u2014 just as she has incited it in the past,\u201d McCarthy said in a statement. \u201cIf Speaker Pelosi doesn\u2019t act against this dangerous rhetoric, I will bring action this week.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>This report has been updated to include additional information.<\/em><\/p>\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.
