(PJ Media)—In a press conference that can only be described as peak gaslighting, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) took to the podium to scold the American public for daring to believe their own eyes when it comes to the anti-ICE riots that have rocked Los Angeles.
“There was no violence,” Waters declared without a hint of irony. “I was on the street. I know.”
That’s right — according to Waters, the fires, the assaults on ICE agents, the vandalized vehicles, the looted businesses, and the viral videos flooding social media all add up to nothing. Just peaceful protesting.
“Even those who were out of step with what we are advocating, peaceful protest, did not create any violence,” she insisted. “Nobody was shot, nobody was killed. Get it in your head.”
Let me see if I understand this correctly: Unless someone ends up in a morgue, apparently it doesn’t count as violence? You can burn cars, destroy property, assault police and federal officers, and even loot, and it’s not a riot? It’s not violence? I guess January 6 was a peaceful protest, too.
