Maxine Waters Ready for Breitbart Pushback While Leading Trump Impeachment Drive
CA ) said she is ready for pushback from Breitbart News while she ramps up her efforts to impeach President Donald Trump . Waters told Elle magazine days after her State of the Union response that she follows Breitbart News ’ s critical reporting on her antics . According to Elle ’ s puff piece   Waters “ touched on the attacks that the Republican party and   in particular   Breitbart have launched against her — she noted that she ’ s frequently referred to as Mad Max .” “ When you make a decision   and you know that decision is controversial   you know that you ’ re going be up against people who are going to fire back at you  ” she reportedly said . “ I ’ m prepared to suffer the consequences of my actions   and I don ’ t fall backwards into this stuff . And so   the consequences will be there   but I ’ m prepared to deal with that .” Breitbart News was on Waters ’ s mind last year at a House Financial Services Committee hearing when she actually accused Breitbart News of wanting to kill her . “ They ’ re on the Internet ; they ’ re Breitbart  ” she said then . “ If you look at the YouTube   you see how much they want to kill me and others . What can we do ?” Waters also used her response to Trump ’ s State of the Union address last week to call for Trump ’ s immediate impeachment while saying  Trump  is “ a dangerous   unprincipled   divisive   and shameful racist .” ” Increasingly   millions of Americans have recognized that  Donald Trump  is detrimental to our nation .” We deserve better . That ’ s why I have called for  his  impeachment  ” she said on BET . “ Some believe it ’ s too early . We must organize   challenge   and resist .” Waters told Elle that she is at odds with her party ’ s leadership right now   though   on the impeachment issue . “ Now   the leadership has a different take   and what they ’ re thinking is we can ’ t get diverted from tax reform that we ’ ve been working on … The leadership does not want to be diverted into talking about impeachment  ” Waters said . “ I respect that they don ’ t necessarily think about it the way that I think about it   but I don ’ t let that interfere with what I do .”
