California Congresswoman Maxine Waters has insisted the ongoing riots in Los Angeles are peaceful.

Far-left protesters, criminal opportunists and immigrant activists have descended on the streets of Los Angeles over the past few days in an effort to push back against President Trump’s efforts to deport the millions of people who are illegally residing across the country.

Speaking at a press conference on Tuesday, Waters argued that there was “no violence” in any of the protests, despite video evidence to the contrary.

“Even those who were out of step with what we are advocating, peaceful protest, did not create any violence,” Waters said.

“Nobody was shot. Nobody was killed. Get it in your head.”

“So when martial law is called, what are you going to say? I missed the point. Don’t miss the point, you all.”

“Don’t think that somehow, because they called out the National Guard, there was violence.”

“There was no violence. I was on the street. I know.”

”And I went from downtown detention back out into the community talking to people in Paramount, what happened in Compton, what happened in Inglewood.”

Video footage across social media has shown the protesters setting vehicles on fire, assaulting law enforcement and looting local businesses.

Over the weekend, Waters was caught taunting the National Guard and suggesting that they were going to “shoot some kids.”

In another video circulating on X, Waters tried to confront law enforcement officers, only for them to slam the door in her face.
