Maxine Waters Is Back and She's Not Here to Play

Another glorious piece on the divine Ms W. from Elle:



Is that the face of someone who came to play? No, ma'am, it is not. Rep. Waters wants you to know that she is sick of all these Russian shenanigans and she doesn't care who knows it. She showed up like real life Olivia Pope. Chris Hayes asked her for an interview and she was like "How about I give you a five minute Shonda Rhimes monologue and then pull out a list of people who are trash to me? That sound good to you?"

She literally brought a list!

Honey, Maxine Waters will read you and then give you the transcript. When she pulled out her spectacles I completely fell out. She sat down at her Microsoft Word, opened a new document, titled it "These Russian-Helping Nincompoops Who I Don't Have Time For" and went to work. That little paperclip was like "Looks like you're writing a burn book. Do you need help?" Rep. Waters was like "This ain't my first rodeo, Clippy." When she finished she sent it to the printer down the hall, walked down the hall, realized it was at the other printer, went to that printer, folded it, put it in her purse and walked over to the studio just as pleased as can be.



This is that face you make when you show up to an enemy's funeral and the preacher says "Would anyone like to share some fond remembrances?"

This is that face you make when someone tries to come for you and you've been saving petty up all day like it's Weight Watchers points.

Rep. Waters showed up in that studio with a testimony, y'all. She swore to read for filth, the whole filth and nothing but the filth.
