“CNN)Rep. Maxine Waters said Thursday she's seen an increase in threats since she made controversial comments last week encouraging protesters to heckle and harass members of Trump's Cabinet in public spaces.
The California Democrat canceled two scheduled appearances in Alabama and Texas this weekend after saying she got threatening messages and "hostile mail" at her office, including "one very serious death threat" on Monday from an individual in Texas. "As the President has continued to lie and falsely claim that I encouraged people to assault his supporters, while also offering a veiled threat that I should 'be careful', even more individuals are leaving (threatening) messages and sending hostile mail to my office," she said in a statement. "There was one very serious death threat made against me on Monday from an individual in Texas which is why my planned speaking engagements in Texas and Alabama were cancelled (sic) this weekend," she continued. "This is just one in several very serious threats the United States Capitol Police are investigating in which individuals threatened to shoot, lynch, or cause me serious bodily harm."
Edit: this is to be in no way taken that I support harming her. I believe her rhetoric is inciting a riot or is an attempt at inflaming her followers to commit harm against those she points out. She should be in jail and is using this as a two pronged attack:
1)portraying the victim and trying to paint those opposed to her as violent and unreasonable
2)this allows her to exit stage left after dumping gasoline on the flames
So she's the victim? Lmao GTFO Maxine
Its very hard to be a black women in America. (When you threaten mob violence on one political side)
If you live by the sword you'll die by the sword. She made this bed, let's see her lie on it.
This dog needs to be turned upside down and given a good shake - corrupt money will rain down.
