HUD's Carson Slams Maxine Waters for Homeless Issue Hypocrisy

Housing and Urban Development Secretary Ben Carson on Monday tore into House Financial Services Chairwoman Maxine Waters, D-Calif., and accused her of being a hypocrite on homelessness and of lacking "basic manners" after she wrote a letter to President Donald Trump accusing him of being "shameless" on the issue.

"My mother always taught me that people shouldn't throw rocks, especially while they live in a glass house," Carson told Waters according to a copy of the letter obtained by Politico. "Because of that wise lesson, I was a little surprised to read your hostile letter to President Trump regarding the record number of homeless Americans in California, particularly in your district."

In her Oct. 28 letter, Waters demanded Trump answer reports the administration was considering moving homeless people off of California's streets, and told him his "shamelessness knows no bounds."

Carson responded Monday, "Shamelessness is a career politician of 30 years laying blame" while "allowing more than 55,000 Americans to live on the very streets they represent."

Over her tenure it is painfully obvious Maxine is lacking some gray matter allowing her mouth to work faster than what little is left. She is an obnoxious and hypocritical hag who disgraces the hollowed halls of congress. Be careful Maxine, Ben is a formidable adversary; you don't hold a candle.

Mad Maxine says President Trump is shameless for trying to remove 55,000 from living on the streets. I'm not sure I understand how that is shameless.
