Rep. Cummings? You and Sen. Harris make a great team! Never let up!
Cummings said the U.S. is “so much better than that.”
Apparently not
I agree - and he’s too old in my view. We need the people we have in Congress in Congress and we need to add more - not take any away. hahaha
Sometimes I think that the members of the Black Caucus are the only Democrats willing to fight in the House.
That’s a good motto I really like it.
Would like to add, Nadler never fails us either.
I figured it out the hard way
Exactly, crickets…
Those are the best and I know what you mean.
yep …
they’re getting an earfull … for sure —
The fact that the Admin. is ’ huddling ’ with congresscritters is a big sign —
There are some VERY worried Repukes right now …
and the Admin. is in big trouble because of their doubling down on this —
I really hope the crow is served … cold —
As a former Marylander, I agree. I have followed Elijah Cummings political career for a long time, and he is at his most powerful and influential in congressional leadership posts.
Mr. Cummings is 67, not too old for most endeavors a man might want to undertake (except in politics), but if we’re talking about Mr. Cummings as a viable candidate, I’ll throw out a couple of names of people who are in fact in the wings and from whom we’ll hear more as 2020 approaches: Eric Holder, also 67 and Deval Patrick, 61. The advantages both of these two would bring to a presidential race are enormous and evident. I know 2020 seems like light years away, but because political campaigns are now a well funded industry, serious campaigning will start about a year from now.
I love Elijah Cummings. He’s had some health problems recently & I don’t think it’s in his ambition to run for president.
What we really need to do is stop focusing os much on the presidency and recognize that lots of voices speaking from different positions in Congress- speaking loud and clear-- can do much good. We need 100 Elijah Cummings speaking out in Congress every day…
I want it served cold, rotten and stinking like a dead carcass. And I want it covered in maggots.
And, I’m in a good mood today.
You gotta watch it. Link:
Absolutely! ABSOLUTELY!
Absolutely. He is like a lion. He watches, waits, and then roars.
Soo … no ’ sprinkles ’ ? ? …
I’d like to see the Dems now connect this issue back to guns and the Republican’s role in creating the refugee crisis.
These people are fleeing organized gang violence. A huge proportion of the guns they use originate in legal purchases from gun shops in the US. Republicans block any effort to regulate those sales.
If they don’t like refugees showing up at the borders, perhaps they should quit selling guns to the people chasing them out of their homes.
“Mr. Chairman, we need you,” Cummings continued. “Those children need you. And I’m talking directly to my Republican colleagues. We need you to stand up to President Trump. We need you to join us in telling him that we reject this mean policy. We need you to tell him to abandon his policy. We need you to remind him that this is the United States of America and it is a great country. And we need you to stand up for those children.”
This is a terrific quote. Unfortunately, it will get no media air time because this:
