House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said Monday that it was “unacceptable” for Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., to call for the harassment of Trump administration officials wherever they are found in public.

“In the crucial months ahead, we must strive to make America beautiful again. Trump’s daily lack of civility has provoked responses that are predictable but unacceptable,” Pelosi tweeted in a message that included a link to a story headlined, “Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters encourages her supporters to harass Trump administration officials.”
