Rep. Maxine Waters Shakes Up Hearing With Her Absolutely Damning Description Of Trump

Source: Huff Post

Nov 25, 2025, 05:02 AM EST | Updated 2 hours ago


Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) used an absolutely blistering description of President Donald Trump during a Democratic hearing on the Trump administration’s immigration raids.

“This is an important press conference that is being held to let you know what we’re all doing resisting this lowdown, dirty, no good, filthy president of the United States of America,” Waters said Monday, prompting what appeared to be audible astonishment from those nearby at the event in Los Angeles.

“Let me just say this,” the congresswoman continued. “They are targeting our leadership both in the Latino community and in the Black community and while they’re targeting them and following them, I’m on the street and I’m following ICE and I’m targeting ICE. “We are documenting everything. We are resisting,” she said. “And I want to tell you, you are seeing the biggest coming together of the Black and brown community that we’ve seen in this city ever.”

The protests against the raids “must continue,” Waters urged. “You must not stop. I’m protesting. I’ve been to 11 of them. I stay on the street, in the alleys, wherever I need to be. We’re not afraid, but we’re smart.”

People ask "What are Democrats doing?" Well here it is - holding press conferences and "shadow hearings" that the M$M refuses to cover because they enjoy when we in-fight about us "doing nothing". The hearing was apparently held around 9 pm ET/6 pm PT in Los Angeles and thankfully MeidasTouch was there to cover it (I don't know if CSPAN did or not).

That racist and foul POS. Never, ever buy a Pulte home. Like buying a German house from Julius Streicher in 1937.

she was raked through the coals with their usual GOP-manufactured smear job, regarding her hubby's minority-owned bank stock, and her advocating for minority banks in general for bailouts like the "big banks" were getting during the "Great (GOP-caused) Recession" -

(they eventually blamed the GOP-headed Committee investigative staff for mishandling the investigation)
