Remember when Maxine Waters confirms that Obama has a tool like the Hammer?That was awesome. What a low information person to talk about blackmailing people out in the open. The host said something to the effect of-"You don't mean blackmail material right? You mean a non-profit?"
“The inauguration represented the beginning of his second term, but it also represented the countdown to the end of his presidency. And the reality is, like anything else, you better get what you can while he’s there because, look, come 2016, that’s it,” Martin said.
“I don’t know, and I think some people are missing something here,” Waters said.
“The president has put in place an organization that contains a kind of database that no one has ever seen before in life,” she added. “That’s going to be very, very powerful.”
Martin asked if Waters if she was referring to “Organizing for America.”

“That’s right, that’s right,” Waters said. “And that database will have information about everything on every individual in ways that it’s never been done before.”
(totally not "Organizing America")
Waters said the database would also serve future Democratic candidates seeking the presidency.

“He’s been very smart,” Waters said of Obama. “I mean it’s very powerful what he’s leaving in place.”
@MaxineWaters thank you for being such a low information person. You probably didn't even realize your slip. It didn't sound like a threat. It sounded like a promise that this new collection of information would be super powerful. The kind of data a regular purchase could
get would be what you like to purchase from the grocery store, buy on Amazon, or things like that. What Maxine is suggesting here is simply not buying your online data. She's talking about blackmail material.
