Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters, who is 79 years old, said on “MSNBC Live” Saturday that she’s been “adopted by millennials.”
“I’ve been adopted by millennials, and they, you know, refer to me as Auntie Maxine,” the congresswoman said. “And I want to be an enabler. I want to open up the process for them. We have some very talented young people, who are doing podcasts and who are broadcasters, and they have not really been welcomed into, you know, the Congress of the United States in ways that they have spaces that they can, you know, cover this State of the Union.” – READ MORE
[give_form id=”79809″] [divider][/divider]As President Donald Trump prepares to deliver his first State of the Union address Tuesday, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.), among others, plans to boycott the event.
But Waters is taking her boycott a step further, according to BuzzFeed News — she’s going to deliver her own response to the speech:
Rep. Maxine Waters, a California Democrat, will speak at the top of a BET News special after Trump delivers the State of the Union, a BET spokesperson told BuzzFeed News. The program, “Angela Rye’s State of the Union,” is part of a broader partnership announced just days ago between the network and the Democratic strategist and political commentator. Rye will executive produce news programs with a sharp focus on issues facing black Americans. The programs will run quarterly, BET said in a release.
The spokesperson said activists and some elected officials will analyze Trump’s first year in office on the program, and will talk about “building black politics and the value of engagement across today’s socio-political landscape.” – READ MORE
