I am so looking forward to Maxine Waters completely doing this over and over for the next 2 years.

[sunonmars]

This woman is a force of nature....she takes absolutely no shit and lets them off with nothing.

[Just a Weirdo]

1. In this case she has the time in the world come next week

And will set very specific rule: no speechifying or be in contempt of Congress.

[sunonmars]

2. The parasites will crap themselves getting a summons from her now.

[riversedge]

3. Oh yes. yes. yes.

[llmart]

4. God, I love this woman!

We need more of her.

[drmeow]

5. OMG - what a racist, sexist, disrespectful POS he is eom

[calimary]

23. No kidding! Racist, sexist, and elitist as hell!

But in the new year, it will be SHE who’s calling the shots. She will CHAIR that committee and donald, you’ll likely hear from her in the form of subpoenas. Better start showing a little respect...

[drmeow]

29. Elitist! That was the word I was looking for.

Thanks.

And, YES!!!! I don't think they are capable of realizing the shit they are in (or capable of showing respect) because the notion that they may be held accountable is foreign to them. I hope they keep up the smarmy BS and get held in contempt of Congress.

[calimary]

30. This is EXACTLY it.

The trump bunch has NEVER been held accountable for ANYTHING. They’ve strutted across Midtown Manhattan all this time, over all these years - no. Decades! They NEVER had to face the music. Either they threatened lawsuits or other intimidation tactics (sic Michael Cohen on ‘em), or date their victims to sue, knowing the trump side could string things out and wait them out because they had deeper pockets or better connections and the little-guy subcontractor suing them would give up and go away. Or donald could always run to Deutsche Bank and get more big loans, of make some skeevy “deal” with some sketchy Eastern European or Russian oligarch that would inevitably involve money-laundering.

They have NEVER been held accountable.

Til now.

And they have no templates for how to wheel-‘n’-deal their way out of these problems. Intimidation won’t work. Lying and misrepresenting and fudging the facts won’t work. And as of January 3, they’ll have lost half their allies and excuse-makers on Capitol Hill. The House of Reps is GONE. He only has the Senate still in his corner, and that’s already wobbling.

[RVN VET71]

24. Of course he's racist, disrespectful, and a POS

He's white, filthy rich, devoid of personality, and the owner of a gold-digging trophy wife. Goes without saying, with all that going for him, he's a racist, disrespectful, POS.

(Also, incompetent. Damned fool just caused a near panic on Wall Street by publicly announcing that he had called the heads of all the major banks in the U.S. to see if they were likely to remain solvent!)

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

6. Maxine is the best... love that she doesn't take shit from anyone!

[Stellar]

7. LOL! This guy sang a song about it!

[SleeplessinSoCal]

8. wonder when Mnuchin needs more time with his family...

Sooner than later I'll wager.

[George II]

9. That was beautiful, and I was happy to see that even the republican chairman....

....agreed with her.

Did Munchkin EVER answer her question? I doubt it.

[ailsagirl]

10. She is FANTASTIC!!!

[Nitram]

11. What a douchebag.

[karin_sj]

12. l LOVE her!

Not letting this idiot run out the clock on her. Go Maxine!

[Pachamama]

13. 2019 is going to make the popcorn taste sweet....

[lastlib]

36. I think I'm going to call a broker and buy popcorn futures--

there's gonna be a run on the market! We are going to have a LOT of opportunities to watch these GOPee basturds squirm and dance!

[Hermit-The-Prog]

14. THAT's the way you do it!

Talking heads on the tv could learn a thing or two from Rep. Maxine Waters!

[sandensea]

15. I'd have this played on a loop in Mnuchin's jail cell.

He'd learn to love it.

[Pepsidog]

16. It's gonna be a Reckoning!

[SayItLoud]

17. Gonna be sweet to watch her nail these grifters. nt

[akraven]

18. She is fierce!

I love her. Go, Maxine! (We call all our pols by their first names here, local, borough, state and federal, no disrespect meant.)

[hostalover]

19. That was awesome!

[sunonmars]

20. She's just awesome, this woman does not fall for the bull of stringing out their replies.

I wouldn't want her as my Mom or Gran though, you wouldn't be able to get away with jack.

[hvn_nbr_2]

21. This will be the soundtrack of the next Congress

Every single one of the investigations that we've been waiting for will be filibustered by these swine who won't answer a question. Every Democrat needs to follow her example.

[jalan48]

22. We are very lucky to have Maxine in our camp. The coming year should be much better.

[maddiemom]

25. I'm a 73 year old woman and Maxine and Nancy Pelosi are my role models.

Ruth Bader Ginsberg! Her name says enough. All have a few years on me, and Hillary is just a couple of years younger. How delightful for us older women still keeping relevant (we hope) in our own ways. For years men were revered when still active and successful when over seventy. Women that age negated. I have a daughter now in her forties,who still takes for granted and is puzzled by why these women are so special. You Go, Girls (and excuse me for being politically incorrect, but "The Golden 'Girls' " were actually quite a breakthrough in their time ( Betty White is 96 and finally isn't so active. Hang on Ms. White!).

[Blue Owl]

26. To the MAX!!!

[northoftheborder]

27. Thanks for that brilliant bit of perfection from wonderful Maxine Waters!!!

"Reclaiming my time" -- need it on a T-shirt!!!!!

[Haggis for Breakfast]

37. I'll buy a dozen of those.

[Honeycombe8]

28. I love this woman. She's tough & savvy. She had to be, to get where she is...

as an Af. American female. It wasn't automatic, like it is for so many...like the guy she was asking the question to.

[BlueJac]

31. yes, for sure

she will be a headache for the deplorables

[red dog 1]

32. Maxine is one of my heroes!

K&R

[panfluteman]

33. I Feel Like We All Need to Reclaim Our Time from this Fraudulent, Illegitimate President!!!

[Ohioboy]

34. Wow! That was good!

So refreshing to see.

[Cha]

35. Yes, and we owe all of this to our

Brilliant Blue Wave that swept our Nation at midterms and beyond!

38. African Americans females are the base of our party in the South where I live.

And they don’t take shit. I look forward to her nailing the administration to the wall.

I am hoping in my rapidly diminishing lifetime I see an African American Female on our ticket.

A certain Senator from California comes to mind.

[littlemissmartypants]

39. Reclaiming my time.

Wouldn't it be a Hella ring tone?!
