The conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch has accused Rep. Maxine Waters (D-California) of inciting “mob violence” with her fiery ‘resistance’ rhetoric, calling on the House to investigate her on ethics grounds.
Waters’ calls for physical resistance against the Trump administration “doesn’t obviously reflect credibly on the House,” Judicial Watch director Tom Fitton told ‘Fox & Friends’ on Thursday.“Look, she’s telling people: ‘get a crowd together, confront Trump cabinet members…tell them they’re not welcome, push back’. That’s the very definition of mob violence.”
Fitton’s group sent a letter to the House Office of Congressional Ethics, demanding an investigation into whether Waters’ remarks, delivered to a crowd of supporters in Los Angeles almost two weeks ago, violated rules that demand that all members of Congress behave in a way that reflects well on the institution.
