Fox News contributor Tomi Lahren made an appearance on “Final Thoughts” on Fox Nation, where she called out Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif. for her comments over calling for inciting people to head to the street and be confrontational.
Waters traveled to Brooklyn Center, Minn., where she made comments concerning the possibility of a not guilty verdict for Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin in the murder of George Floyd.
“I hope we get a verdict that says guilty, guilty, guilty,” Waters said. “And if we don’t, we cannot go away. We’ve got to stay on the street. We get more active; we’ve got to get more confrontational.”
These comments didn’t sit well with Lahren, who label Waters’ statement as dangerous and one that endorses criminal behavior. Lahren added that social media outlets such as Facebook and Twitter need to ban Waters from their platforms, considering they’ve done so to other people for doing or saying for less, she states.
“You see no reason to do the same to Mad Maxine, who is literally on the ground in the midst of the chaos, explicitly inciting people to disobey and be more confrontational,” Lahren said. “How in the Hell do you justify that? Where are your terms of service, your community standards, and your algorithms now? Unbelievable.”
