Navy veteran Joe Collins targets Democrat Maxine Waters' home in campaign ad
U.S. Navy veteran Joe Collins on Saturday released a scathing campaign ad, standing in front of a multi-million-dollar mansion, the home of Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., and attacked her for living in a multi-million dollar mansion while representing a district plagued by crime and poverty, all while she’s not even living in the actual district.
U.S. Navy veteran Joe Collins on Saturday released a scathing campaign ad, standing in front of a multi-million-dollar mansion, the home of Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., and attacked her for living in a multi-million dollar mansion while representing a district plagued by crime and poverty, all while she’s not even living in the actual district.
In the ad, Collins stands outside Waters’ $6 million California residence, before asking viewers, “Do you know where I am right now? Maxine Waters’ six million-dollar mansion,” Collins asks. “Do you know where I’m not right now? Maxine Waters’ district.”
Waters has represented the area that is now California’s 43rd District since 1991. Before that, she had served in the California State Assembly since 1976. Her home used to be within the boundaries of District 43 until redistricting shifted her neighborhood into the 37th District, which is represented by Democratic Rep. Karen Bass.

Collins, a Republican who is campaigning to replace Waters and grew up in South Los Angeles, said the crime and poverty in the area have only increased under Waters’ 44 years in public office.
“I survived a drive-by shooting in this house when I was a child,” Collins says in the video while standing outside a home in the area. “Gangs, drugs, violence, that was my upbringing. And where was Maxine Waters?”
Having served more than 13 years in the U.S. Navy and having fought in the Iraq War, Collins also criticized Waters for not fighting “for her own district here in America.” CLICK HERE FOR MORE.
