Congresswoman Maxine Waters caused chaos at the Department of Housing and Urban Development this week. She tried to force a meeting with Secretary Scott Turner while leading a group of angry protesters. HUD employees calmly offered to take her letter, but Waters refused and demanded special treatment. Taxpayers should be relieved that Secretary Turner stayed focused on his job instead of bending to political stunts.
Security footage shows Waters shouting at HUD staff while protesters banged on the doors. Her fellow Democrats joined the commotion, with Representative Steven Horsford cursing at Elon Musk and Representative Jill Tokuda dropping F-bombs in the government building. This kind of behavior wastes everyone’s time when housing costs keep rising under failed Democrat policies.
Secretary Turner has already saved $260 million by cutting wasteful programs left over from the Biden administration. He stopped funding radical gender policies in shelters and eliminated $4 million in pointless DEI contracts. While Democrats scream about “cuts,” Turner is making sure your tax dollars actually help families find affordable homes instead of paying for Washington bureaucrats to sit around.
The Trump-appointed leader even cleaned up HUD’s empty offices that were only 20% full under Biden. Waters never cared about that wasted money when her party was in charge. Now she’s mad because someone finally expects government workers to show up and do their jobs. HUD employees handled the situation professionally, offering to let Waters watch a video of President Trump’s real accomplishments instead of listening to her complaints.
Elon Musk’s efficiency team found millions in savings by auditing HUD programs. This partnership between business leaders and government is exactly what voters wanted when they elected President Trump. Democrats hate it because they can’t stand successful outsiders fixing their corrupt systems. Representative Rashida Tlaib proved this by screaming that HUD staff “don’t give a shit” about Americans – which is rich coming from someone who votes for open borders and higher rents.
While Waters plays games, Secretary Turner is getting results. He’s a man of faith who believes God prepared him for this mission. At CPAC, Turner shared how his NFL career and business experience taught him to solve problems instead of blaming others. That’s the kind of leadership we need – not grandstanding politicians who make every issue about themselves.
The American people see through these Democrat antics. They want safe neighborhoods and houses they can afford. President Trump’s team is delivering through hard work and common sense. Meanwhile, Maxine Waters keeps embarrassing herself with failed photo-ops while Californians struggle with homelessness caused by her radical policies.
This protest wasn’t about helping families – it was about protecting Democrat allies who got rich off government contracts. Secretary Turner’s reforms threaten their gravy train, so they’re lashing out. Real leaders fix problems. Whiny politicians stage TV moments. The choice couldn’t be clearer.
