All in the Family: Mad Maxine Waters Has Given Over $1M in Campaign Cash to Daughter

Those are the words of Rep. Maxine Waters in 2004, in reference to a report by the Los Angeles Times that found various Waters family members had pocketed a total of more than $1 million over eight years from businesses and campaigns with a connection to the congresswoman.

As reported by Fox News on Saturday, Waters has given more than $1 million to her daughter through her campaigns since 2003, according to federal election data.

Maxine Waters has given over $1 million in campaign cash to daughter, according to federal election data.

Of the roughly $1.1 million Karen Waters received from her mother, $250,000 came from the 2020 election cycle, as reported by the Federal Election Commission.

Waters made over 30 payments to her daughter during the 2020 campaign cycle, the funds largely going to Slate Mailer Management Fees.

There [have been] over 160 payments funneled to Karen Waters from the California congresswoman since 2003, that the FEC has recorded.

So Waters was back in the news, recently - actually something Waters said in 2018 was back in the news - as reported by my RedState colleague Jen Van Laar on Friday.
