Rep. Waters on Trump: “Get Ready for Impeachment”

Mar 21, 2017
Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA), who is expected to become the Chairwoman of the House Financial Services Committee in the next Congress

The ranking member of the House Financial Services Committee is aggressively pushing her Capitol Hill colleagues to impeach President Trump based on accusations of collusion between his 2016 election campaign and the Russian government.
 
Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) took to Twitter this morning with the blunt message: “Get Ready for Impeachment.” Waters, who refused to attend both the president’s inauguration and his recent speech before a joint session of Congress, also used Twitter to call President Trump “a liar,” adding the Federal Bureau of Investigations Director James Comey “still has no credibility.”
 
However, Rep. Waters may have more influence on Twitter—her impeachment message has already been liked by more than 22,000 people—than in Congress, as no movement for removing the president is underway.
