In Maxine’s own words.

And this “Maxine” I’m referring to is democrat Maxine Waters, a congresswoman from California.

She’s a poster child for term limits.

She’s 82 years old, and has been in Congress since 1991.  That’s 30 years, or 15 terms in office.

That’s 15 terms too many, in my opinion.

I’m going to conduct a little exercise in “turnabout is fair play” here.

What if I was to direct Maxine’s own comments back onto her and her democrat friends?

That would be fair wouldn’t it?

Well, let’s see.

Maxine has said, “Let’s make sure we show up wherever we have to show up. And if you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. And you push back on them. And you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere. We’ve got to get the children connected to their parents [referring to immigrant children being held at the border],” Waters said at the Wilshire Federal Building, according to video of the event.

“We don’t know what damage has been done to these children. All that we know is they’re in cages. They’re in prisons. They’re in jails. I don’t care what they call it, that’s where they are and Mr. President, we will see you every day, every hour of the day, everywhere that we are to let you know you cannot get away with this,” she added.

Waters appeared on MSNBC later in the day to double down on her remarks, saying she has “no sympathy” for members of the Trump administration.

“The people are going to turn on them. They’re going to protest. They’re going to absolutely harass them until they decide that they’re going to tell the President, ‘No, I can’t hang with you.’”

Sooo, if I said: “Let’s make sure we show up wherever we have to show up. And if you see [Maxine Waters or any of her democrat friends] in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd. And you push back on them. And you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere. We’ve got to get the children connected to their parents [referring to immigrant children being held at the border].”

“We don’t know what damage has been done to these children. All that we know is they’re in cages. They’re in prisons. They’re in jails. I don’t care what they call it, that’s where they are and Mr. President [Joe Biden in this case], we will see you every day, every hour of the day, everywhere that we are to let you know you cannot get away with this.”

[We have] no sympathy for members of the [Biden] administration.

“The people are going to turn on them. They’re going to protest. They’re going to absolutely harass them until they decide that they’re going to tell the President, ‘No, I can’t hang with you.’”

So, that would be okay?

Maxine has also said, “We’re looking for a guilty verdict and we’re looking to see if all of the talk 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 got to not only stay in the street, but we have got to fight for justice.”

“We got to stay on the street. And we’ve got to get more active, we’ve got to get more confrontational. We’ve got to make sure that they know that we mean business.”

“I talk about confronting the justice system, confronting the policing that’s going on, I’m talking about speaking up,” she said.

Sooo, if I said: “We’re looking for a guilty verdict and we’re looking to see if all of the talk that took place and has been taking place after they saw what happened to [Ashli Babbitt] [The woman who was shot and killed by a Capitol police officer during the protests on January 6th.]. If nothing [happens], then we know that we got to not only stay in the street, but we have got to fight for justice.”

“We got to stay on the street. And we’ve got to get more active, we’ve got to get more confrontational. We’ve got to make sure that they know that we mean business.”

“I talk about confronting the justice system, confronting the policing that’s going on, I’m talking about speaking up.”

So, that would be okay as well?

According to Chris Sommerfeldt, for the New York Daily News, “House Speaker Nancy Pelosi backed up California Rep. Maxine Waters on Monday, arguing that the Democratic congresswoman ‘absolutely’ did not try to stoke violence by calling on Black Lives Matter protesters to ‘get more confrontational’ if ex-Minnesota police officer Derek Chauvin is acquitted of killing George Floyd.”

So, then Nancy shouldn’t have any problems with my comments either, right? 

But didn’t she believe what President Trump said on 01/06/21, which was far less inflammatory, was instigating an insurrection, and worthy of impeachment?

Just sayin’.     

“Waters, a lightning rod for right-wing criticism, has come under fire from conservatives over making the heated remark while attending a protest in Minnesota over the weekend — but Pelosi told reporters that Republicans are taking her comments out of context.”

“Out of context?

And, what context would that be?

The context of a crazy, old, racist, cognitively challenged, liberal? 

Well, I suppose, Nancy Pelosi fits that mold as well!

Where’s the justice for Ashli Babbitt?!

This is my third blog concerning this matter, and my latest update.

I’m sure you’re all aware now of the status of this case, right?  

No?

Well, don’t feel bad, I wasn’t either.

In fact, I had to go hunting down a lone article from NBC News, of all places, to find out what was currently going on.  There were a couple of other articles out there, but they weren’t very well publicized or easy to find.

It seems there aren’t too many “journalists” out there interested in pursuing this story very far. 

Compare this to the frenzy of never-ending coverage for George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Jacob Blake.

I guess Ashli is the wrong color and of the wrong political persuasion to deserve justice in the eyes of the mainstream media.   

That being said…, according to Elisha Fieldstadt and Pete Williams, in an article for NBC News, “Investigators have determined the Capitol Police officer who shot and killed Ashli Babbitt during the U.S. Capitol riot should not be charged with any crimes, a law enforcement source familiar with the investigation told NBC News.”

So, they investigated themselves and determined they weren’t guilty?

“The Wall Street Journal first reported that police investigators have recommended the officer not be charged, although the U.S. Attorney’s Office will make the final decision on the matter.”

Translation: The officer responsibly for killing Ashli Babbitt won’t be charged.

“Babbitt, a 35-year-old Air Force veteran and ardent supporter of former President Donald Trump, was shot during the Jan. 6 storming of the U.S. Capitol.”

“Videos show rioters who made it into the building breaking glass on doors near the House Chamber, which were blocked haphazardly from the inside with chairs in an attempt to prevent the mob from entering. As Babbitt tried to climb through the shattered glass, she was fatally shot by a Capitol Police officer who fired at her once.”

“The officer, who has not been identified by Capitol Police or investigators, ‘used clear appropriate use of force. It’s not even a close call,’ said the officer’s lawyer, Mark E. Schamel.”

Oh, this “use of force” was deemed “appropriate,” huh?

Since when is shooting an UNARMED individual appropriate for a police officer?

In fact, none of the protesters in the capitol that day were armed with any weapons.

But they were Trump supporters, so…

Let’s take a quick trip down memory lane.

How many unarmed protesters and rioters, although many were armed with weapons and explosives, were shot and killed by police over the course of months and months in many of our big cities across the country?  

And why does this person get to benefit from anonymity? 

Just sayin’.  

‘“The broken doors and a few officers were the only things separating the mob from members of Congress, Schamel stressed. ‘I think it’s his heroism and his restraint that saved lives,’ Schamel told NBC News.”

Heroism?!!!

Restraint?!!! 

I’m sorry Mr. Schamel, but your client is no hero, and you are a disgrace.   

“The Department of Justice announced last month that the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia would investigate the shooting, and the officer was placed on leave.”

‘“This is routine, standard procedure whenever an officer deploys lethal force. The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia is overseeing the investigation,’ a Justice Department spokesperson said at the time.”

This standard procedure doesn’t seem to apply to the officers in Minneapolis, Louisville, or Kenosha, does it? 

“A spokeswoman for the Metropolitan Police Department said the investigation was not complete, and ‘it would be irresponsible to make an investigatory assumption or to jump to any conclusion.’”

It would appear it is already too late for that!

They have already “jumped,” and it is “irresponsible,” to say the very least.

“Babbitt was a decorated security forces controller in the Air Force and served multiple Middle East tours from 2004 to 2016.”

So, she survived “multiple Middle East Tours,” protecting our democracy, and then gets gunned down in her own country, by a Capitol police officer.

Sad.

Very sad.

“Babbitt was a loyal Fox News watcher, according to thousands of tweets to Fox News hosts, but she also engaged on social media with the conspiracy site InfoWars. In 2020, Babbitt began to tweet with QAnon accounts and use QAnon hashtags.”

So, what?!

Are you saying this information is, somehow, some kind of validation for her murder?

If not, why even go there?

Again, sad.

Very sad.

It’s been over two and a half months now, and there still has been no justice for Ashli Babbitt. 

Her family does have a lawyer, however, and we’ll just have to wait and see if he is able to make any headway against the powers that be.

Don’t hold your breath.

I’m sure the democrats want to stretch this cover-up out, much like the Jeffrey Epstein matter, hoping it will just fade away.

But some of us will not allow this to just “fade away.”  

I’ll continue to keep you posted.

So, how’s that “investigation” going?

I’m sorry.

That question could be applied to many, supposed, “on-going investigations.”

The “investigation” I am specifically referring to here is the “investigation” of the UNARMED, 14-year Air Force veteran who was gunned down in cold blood by the Capitol police force.

Please refer to my initial blog from January 12, 2021, on this subject.

It’s been three weeks now and I haven’t heard another word about it.

That’s odd.

Well, not really.

Who was responsible for the shooting?

Have they been suspended?

Have they been fired?

How come we don’t know anything about the killer?

How many other Capitol police officers were there and involved in the shooting?

In the cases of other cops shooting unarmed individuals, or killing/harming them in some other manner (George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Jacob Blake), we knew the identities of all of the cops involved the next day.

So, what’s up in this case?

I guess the Capitol police and the DC Police get special treatment for some reason.

Maybe it’s because they protect our elite and privileged politicians?

They’re not like the police who are supposed to protect all of us everyday citizen peons out here.    

Just to recap what happened, in case your memory is beginning to fade:

According to Jaclyn Peiser and Justin Jouvenal for The Washington Post, “When a group of pro-Trump rioters stormed the Capitol and smashed windows on Wednesday, a woman jumped onto a pane and started through.”

“Seconds later, a gunshot rang out and the woman, who had a Trump flag tied around her waist, tipped back and fell onto the marble floor as blood spilled from her shoulder.”

‘“They shot a girl!’ someone yelled as the crowd ran out of the southeast entrance.”

“She died later that day, police said.”

“The woman was 35-year-old Ashli Babbitt, a California native and Air Force veteran, her former husband told The Washington Post.”

“Police have not yet confirmed Babbitt’s identity or confirmed details about how she was shot. The woman was shot by U.S. Capitol Police, D.C. Police Chief Robert J. Contee III told reporters.”

“Babbitt, a native of San Diego, served in Afghanistan and Iraq in the Air Force before other deployments with the National Guard to Kuwait and Qatar, ex-husband Timothy McEntee told The Post.”

So, when do the protests for Ashli start?

Are players in the upcoming Super Bowl going to have her name on the back of their helmets?

I want some answers…, and I’m sure many of the 74 million people who voted for President Trump do as well.

I’ll keep you posted.

The “storm” is here.

So, how’s that investigation of the capitol protest murder going?

You know…, the one where an UNARMED, 14-year Air Force veteran was gunned down in cold blood by the Capitol police force.

According to Jaclyn Peiser and Justin Jouvenal for The Washington Post, “When a group of pro-Trump rioters stormed the Capitol and smashed windows on Wednesday, a woman jumped onto a pane and started through.”

“Seconds later, a gunshot rang out and the woman, who had a Trump flag tied around her waist, tipped back and fell onto the marble floor as blood spilled from her shoulder.”

Wait…, where did her gun go?

Where did her knife go?

Where did any kind of weapon she had go?

She did have a weapon on her didn’t she?

They are not saying they shot and killed an unarmed protester are they?

I can’t wait to hear how they spin this murder…, if they even bother to spin it at all.  

Good thing for the Capitol police she wasn’t black!

Can anyone say “Breonna Taylor?”

How many athletes are going to have the name “Ashli Babbitt” on their helmets or uniforms?

Don’t hold your breath.

‘“They shot a girl!’ someone yelled as the crowd ran out of the southeast entrance.”

“She died later that day, police said.”

“The woman was 35-year-old Ashli Babbitt, a California native and Air Force veteran, her former husband told The Washington Post. Before her death in the Capitol, she had used her social media to express fervent support for President Trump and echo many of the president’s conspiracy theories and false claims of mass voter fraud.”

So, your attempting to somehow justify her death?

Excuse me, Ms. Peiser and Mr. Jouvenal, but many of The President’s “conspiracy theories” have turned out to be very true…, like when he said he was being bugged, or that the whole Russian collusion investigation was a hoax, or when he claimed his impeachment proceedings were just a witch hunt.  Remember those ”conspiracies?”

And “false claims of mass voter fraud?” There are hundreds and hundreds of sworn affidavits, by election workers, documenting “mass voter fraud…, so I would hardly dismiss them so easily as “false.” 

We do have to remember that this article is from the liberal propaganda, fake news, Washington post, however.   

“Police have not yet confirmed Babbitt’s identity or confirmed details about how she was shot. The woman was shot by U.S. Capitol Police, D.C. Police Chief Robert J. Contee III told reporters on Wednesday.”

“Babbitt, a native of San Diego, served in Afghanistan and Iraq in the Air Force before other deployments with the National Guard to Kuwait and Qatar, ex-husband Timothy McEntee told The Post.”

And she ends up getting shot and killed in her own country, in her own country’s Capitol building, by the police there.

Sad.

“McEntee and Babbitt met in the Air Force and were married for 14 years, before splitting in May 2019.”

“In an interview with San Diego station KUSI, Babbitt’s husband said she was a passionate Trump supporter [an inexcusable crime]. McEntee echoed those sentiments, adding that she was ‘very loud and opinionated, but caring, sweet, thoughtful, loving.’”’

“You would never forget meeting her,’ he wrote.”

“On social media, Babbitt recorded combative videos [“combative” only if you’re for open borders] about immigration policy, while expressing her support for a border wall. In early September, she tweeted a picture from a Trump boat parade in San Diego wearing a shirt that said, ‘We are Q,’ referring to QAnon, the far-right conspiracy theory. The tweet also included the hashtag ‘#WWG1WGA,’ an acronym used by supporters who believe in the claims that Trump was battling a group of ‘deep state’ child abusers.”

Please recall Jeffrey Epstein, Pedophile Island, and how the names of all of those child abusers are being covered up.  This is far, very far, from a wild conspiracy theory.   

“In one of her final posts, she responded to a tweet saying many flights to D.C. were canceled because of weather. ‘The entire world is corrupt,’ the person said.

“In response, Babbitt wrote: ‘Nothing will stop us … they can try and try and try but the storm is here and it is descending upon DC in less than 24 hours … dark to light!’”

Yes, Ashli, I think you were right…, “the storm is here.”
