US @RepMaxineWaters has consistently stood on the right side of history. Here she is marching w/Cesar Chavez & @UAW members in opposition to job cuts & plant closings. Waters has a record of standing boldly on the side of economic & social justice. Her critics have no such record.

1. And not just in the US

She's well known in Jamaica

2. very interesting, malaise

...I didn't know that.

3. She's been on the right side of history

While trump and the gop stand with putin and are trying to lift sanctions for putin to undermine more of our elections and OUR Democracy with , and stand to make 3/4 to 1 trillions from lifting sanctions to use against us. so who thinks she won't be on the right side of history again against trump and the gop. Standing now courageously against trump, the gop , and against putin, I'm with her. trump,and the gop are now committing treason against this country, then claiming the opposite , all for money and power. I wonder now how much trump and gop members are selling us out for soon by lifting sanctions for him?

4. She stood with Hillary from 2008 on. Her critics have been wrong about that, as well.

She is a rock.

5. Maxine courageously pushed for an investigation of the CIA's role in

the crack cocaine epidemic that hit South Central Los Angeles decades ago. Many were calling her a "conspiracy nut" for her tenacity on the issue, but she "persisted". Pulitzer Prize winning writer, the late, Gary Webb also took abuse for his investigative pursuit of the CIA/crack connection.

Read "Dark Alliance" by Gary Webb.

6. Who is . . .

Who is the guy in the Dodgers uniform?

Also, in the rear, to the left of Maxine Waters' right ear is a young woman's face -- Joan Baez?

7. Maxine Waters has indeed & Always been on the right side of history

Along with her friend Rep John Lewis & her good friend from the Union organizing years with Chavez, Deloras Huerta,

All three stood in recent protests at the border.
They represent the fearless leaders who have spent much of their lives for the purpose of human rights.

Proud that all three friends in the trenches epitomize the basic tenets of the Democratic Party.

Lesser beings & opportunists with loud voices, will always show up to berrate & belittle these heros of human rights.

These are the faces of the 'establishment Democrats'. This is who we are.

9. Indeed - Maxine is an establishment Democrat. (nt)

[Wwcd]

12. Yes. And we embrace all they bring to the Party.

We are fortunate to have such fierce establihed heros leading the next generations.

"Establishment Democrats" somehow has been twisted into something derrogatory.
That's a crafty Lie alright.

That choosing & derriding of keywords sounds Sarandon-ish.
OR has built a national campaign against the Democratic Party by using this exact method.

Money & Media $$$

11. and she still stands

a front line fighter for truth, justice and what the american way could be, but never has been. Go Maxine!

[mountain grammy]

13. Maxine..

When she took the stage at the 2017 Women's March the crowd roared.. she is widely loved and for good reasons.

[lancelyons]

14. It seems like a common theme

Maxine not nearly recognized and in fact demonized even after all she has done in her life.

Hillary was in that same boat..

No matter what they did, somebody found a flaw and ran with it.

Everybody else says.. sorry im not perfect

15. As a committee member during the Clinton impeachment hearings

Maxine stood her ground against the GOP windbags on the committee. Republicans, Henry Hyde and Sensenbrenner tried to belittle and talk down to her, but she would have none of it. She went back on them with a verbal smackdown which ended with their heads spinning. Maxine refused to take any shit from those puffed up, hypocrites.

She's a warrior.
