Isn’t she a few steps ahead of a federal election fraud indictment...

She’s 48. She’ll be in that seat until the Pittsburgh to Chicago Hyperloop is finished.

Doesn’t the governor get to appoint someone to fill his seat until the next election, and isn’t Cummings’ wife in trouble for something?

I predicted this in a FR thread the day he died:

"His current wife Maya Rockeymoore, is 20 years his junior. She's also the chair of the Maryland Democratic Party. Before that she ran for Governor of Maryland. You know she'll be throwing her hat in the ring to succeed him."

There is a rumor on the street that Maya Cummings has active contact with Grace Mugabe the widow of Zimbabwe’s dead President Robert.

Little is known of the correspondence but for Baltimore it is a seriously bad omen

Sonny Bono’s wife took his seat after his fatal skiing accident. This is not unusual. In this case this woman will be there FOREVER.

Cummings was a Representative, not a Senator. Governors replace Senators, elections are held for Represntatives

She should be corrupt enough to win. She certainly was smart enough to snag old Elijah, with his limited shelf life, and now she can nail down his seat for life.

Back in the day, 1/3 the American republic wanted tyranny, 1/3 said “meh...”, and 1/3 demanded and fought for individual freedom and limited government.

240 years later, the same thing. The first 1/3 votes ‘Rat for tyranny, another 1/3 says “meh....” and votes the way the enemedia tells them to, and the remaining third, do I dare hope, demands individual freedom and limited government.

She thinks a seat in Congress will keep her out of jail. She might well be right.

Baltimore

Beat up little seagull
On a marble stair
Tryin’ to find the ocean
Lookin’ everywhere

Hard times in the city
In a hard town by the sea
Ain’t nowhere to run to
There ain’t nothin’ here for free

Hooker on the corner
Waitin’ for a train
Drunk lyin’ on the sidewalk
Sleepin’ in the rain

And they hide their faces
And they hide their eyes
‘Cause the city’s dyin’
And they don’t know why

Oh Baltimore
Man it’s hard just to live
Oh, Baltimore
Man, it’s hard just to life, just to live

Get my sister Sandy
And my little brother Ray
Buy a big old wagon
To haul us all away

Live out in the country
Where the mountain’s high
Never comin’ back here
‘Til the day I die

Oh, Baltimore
Man, it’s hard just to live
Oh, Baltimore
Man, it’s hard just to live, just to live

Randy Newman

________

Not quite as bad as Debbie Dingell .....

John Dingell Jr. served as a member of the United States House of Representatives from 1955 until 2015. A member of the Democratic Party, he holds the record for longest-ever serving Congressperson in American history, representing Michigan for more than 59 years.

59 years ..... absurd

Why not? She is more than qualified. She’s black,a woman, and she’s black.
