White House spokesperson Jen Psaki failed to condemn Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) over her recent call to violence in Minnesota.
“Congresswoman Maxine Waters said over the weekend that we’ve got to stay on the street and we’ve got to get more active, we’ve got to get more confrontational, we’ve got to make sure they know that we mean business. Does the president agree with what she said about getting more confrontational?” a reporter asked Psaki.
“Well I can speak to the president’s view, he has been very clear that he recognizes the issue of police violence,” Psaki responded.
In a news briefing on Monday, Psaki evaded the direct question about Waters and chose to accuse the police of violence and racism. She also signaled support for far-left terror groups Antifa and BLM.
