Maxine Waters asking BLM to amp up ‘confrontations’ amid Chauvin trial, still active on Facebook and Twitter while Trump is not

Published



Videos of Rep. Maxine Waters calling on Black Lives Matter protesters to become “more confrontational” are circulating on both Twitter and Facebook despite the tech giants banning the promotion of violence and stripping former President Donald Trump of his accounts for comments they deemed incited an insurrection.

“We’re looking for a guilty verdict,” Waters said in the videos to protesters in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota. “And we’re looking to see if all of the talk that took place and has been taking place after they saw what happened to George Floyd, if nothing does not happen, then we know that we’ve got to not only stay in the street, but we’ve got to fight for justice.”
