As we told you yesterday, Rep. Maxine Waters went to Brooklyn Center, Minnesota to urge calm. Wait, no she didn’t:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is being asked if she’s OK with Waters basically trying to incite riots:
Maxine Waters is inciting violence in Minneapolis — just as she has incited it in the past. If Speaker Pelosi doesn’t act against this dangerous rhetoric, I will bring action this week.

But Washington Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler is trying to “reconcile” what the House Democrat said in Minnesota (far from her own district):
Trying to reconcile this with the haggling over a bipartisan probe of January 6. https://t.co/rVOAjgCilu

Well, that’s certainly one way to dodge the point in question:

That’s not your job. Is Maxine Waters inciting violence?

Glenn, should Maxine Waters be removed from office for her comments?
Yes or no.
Your job isn't to "reconcile."
It's to fact-check. Is she inciting violence or not? https://t.co/tPlglUmN0z

The “fact-checking” media do spend a lot of time “reconciling” for Democrats.
Rioting is bad, no matter who's doing it.
How many Pinocchios do I get, Glenn? https://t.co/aZrTskKWar

Trump: “Peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard”
Maxine Waters: "Keep it in the streets….Be more confrontational"
This, after Waters called for, incited harassment and violence against MAGA/GOP.— sarainitaly 🇺🇸🇮🇹 (@sarainitaly) April 19, 2021
What's to reconcile? Maxine called for violence, Trump didn't. End of story.

Glenn seems to think January 6th forgives any future incitement to riot by a seated politician. @redsteeze https://t.co/Msq69hXp0K
