Maxine Waters Unfit to Chair House Financial Services Committee

Considering her record and documented history of poor ethical and moral fitness, it's outrageous that Maxine Waters is up for chair of the ultra-powerful House Financial Services Committee, which has jurisdiction over the country's banking system, economy, housing, and insurance.

Judicial Watch filed a House ethics complaint against Waters for encouraging violence against Trump Cabinet members.

Waters allocated $12 million to the Massachusetts bank in which she and her board member husband held shares.

The famously remiss House Ethics Committee, which is charged with investigating and punishing corrupt lawmakers like Waters, found that she committed no wrongdoing.

The records also show that, prior to the bailout, the bank received a "Less than satisfactory rating." Incredibly, after that scandal Waters was chosen by her colleagues to hold a ranking position on the House Financial Services Committee she will soon chair.

The only consequence for blowing $12 million on her husband's failing bank was a slap on the hand to Waters' chief of staff for violating House standards of conduct to help OneUnited.

In the 1980s Waters accused the CIA of selling crack cocaine to blacks in her south-central Los Angeles district to raise millions of dollars to support clandestine operations in Latin America, including a guerrilla army.
