Maxine Waters on Undocumented Immigrants: ‘This Is Their Country’

Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters (Calif.) told an audience on Tuesday that the United States is the country of undocumented immigrants.

Waters was speaking in Los Angeles to the Westchester-Playa Democratic Club about a number of issues, from the federal budget to how to resist President Trump's agenda, according to the group's website.

In her speech, Waters discussed young undocumented immigrants often referred to as "dreamers," who are protected from deportation by former President Obama's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) executive order.

Waters said that the United States is their country.

"These are people who have hope. These are people who have gone to school. These are young people who want careers. These are people who are contributing to our society," Waters said. "And all of sudden, they are thought to be folks who don't deserve to be here and would be sent back to places they've never been. People they don't know. Systems they don't understand. This is their country."

Waters also brought up the inaccurate story being reported this week of the Trump administration deporting a dreamer.

It is not their country. It is our country and we have a right to close our borders and we need to.

As the descendant of slaves, of course she thinks illegal immigrants own the country. She, and her constituents that elected her, are looney.

We all know how stupid this subject is. So, why all of a sudden is this nut being so controversial? Is she after attention because is is not relevant? What is it about this dumb one on our payroll? Inquiring mind(s) want to know. Maybe that is why they unfortunately removed Mr. Bill of The Factor, because he poked fun of the James Brown wig.

'she needs one to the brain' should NOT be an appropriate comment on this blog.

That being said, consider the source. Maxine is a DEM and you don't need to know anything more.

She needs to be put in a nut house.

She is trying to get the same benefits as Jesse Jackson's son is getting. It will be more tax dollars in her bank account than what she would get by retiring. She is playing the system like all free loaders of her district.

Maxie is an idiot and people listening to her are just as much if not more of one than she. Looks like with her next election, she's got some major competition and it would behoove her to concentrate on that issue rather than her endless Trump Bashing. She ain't that bright so, she'll like lose her life on the dole.
