You said it!

What peole like this really mean is America's Free Constitutional Republic will be restored over his (and other Leftist's) dead body.

Whatever it takes...

IRS Complaint Filed Against Wife of Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD)
May 20, 2019

National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC) today filed a Complaint with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) against the Center for Global Policy Solutions (CGPS), a 501(c)(3) organization headed by Maya Rockeymoore Cummings, wife to Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD).

Mrs. Cummings is currently Chair of the Maryland Democratic Party and is a former candidate for Governor. Rep. Cummings is Chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform.

The Complaint describes a score of apparent Internal Revenue Code violations, including prohibited private benefit and inurement of the Cummings. CGPS has received millions in grants from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and, in late 2017, was granted a million-dollar contract from the General Services Administration. The funds were purportedly provided to fight childhood obesity. The Complaint asks the IRS to investigate whether “its organizers are getting fat off the grants.”

At the same time she heads CGPS, Mrs. Cummings heads a for-profit consulting firm called Global Policy Solutions, LLC, whose operations appear to have been indistinguishable from those of CGPS. The two entities have shared office space, telephones, etc., all of which are flagrant violations of the Internal Revenue Code.

Another of the cited violations is a failure to provide or disclose a copy of IRS Form 990 when requested. According to Tom Anderson, director of NLPC’s Government Integrity Project, who uncovered the violations, “Rep. Cummings is demanding President Trump’s tax returns and financial records. It looks like he has some tax problems of his own.”

Thanks for the details, Brown Deer. So a complaint was filed 5 months ago. If she was a Republican, she would be well into her sentence now. Clearly, she knows the charges are going nowhere.

I watched a documentary called Kleptocrats and it was exactly this sort of thing although it was not in the US. When I watched it I though this is exactly what politicians do here why are they not in jail.

IOW, she’s a typical demonrat and a shoo in for the position.

She and Elijah have only been married 11 years...and they say there are three children..anyone know the age of those three children...or were they his kids from previous relationships?

She needs to be investigated before she should run for a Congress position...Is there any Republican in the wings waiting to run?

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

Sad how your prior pessimistic posts proved precisely prescient, pal.

I never heard of her until you said that. I'm sure she will courageously place a lace hankie to her swollen eyes and then announce that anyone who disagrees with her will get cut off at the knees.

A Black Republican ran in 2014 and 2016, and managed to get as high as 27% in that first election (less than 22% in ‘16). Although a racially-gerrymandered district (thanks to the VRA), it hasn’t elected a Republican from central Baltimore since 1942, and then with considerably different demographics.

Cummings was not old... was he sick? He was into getting Trump out of the White House.... He spent the last 3 years of his life bucking Trump voters.

I’m sticking this out there for thought...

they have tried everything the left and the media have to use and Pres Trump is still the President and he comes out to the helicopter each day and waves...

They’ve investigated him for 3 years... nothing. They’ve lied and cried for 3 years and look at the stadiums he fills!

Do you know the Bible story of Jonah? He is the one in the whale.. He ended up on a ship and everything went wrong on that ship... the men on the ship knew what and who the problem was... Jonah. Does the left know or think about all they’ve done to Trump and he’s still there ... do they wonder how he does it? Do they wonder how he’s avoided everything they’ve tried? Ia God interested in the United States? Is socialism waiting in the wings to be brought into this United States, the next time the dems win the election? Would that do away with the nation that was founded on Godly principles?

Can people be removed who are causing problems and going against God’s plans... (supposing God does that kind of thing)? My son once told a guy who was trying to outdo and overtake... “you mistook kindness for weakness” as he was giving him the whatfor!

Do you think we mistake God’s quiet time for not caring what the swamp does or doesn’t do and letting things go as is and losing the one country that God probably had His eye on ... we fed the world and we have been the gatekeeper or the red line that keeps other nations from taking control of the world. If we collapse, the world will have no power to keep peace throughout.

A perfectly safe Rat seat. Is there not a Candidate with legitimate political accomplishment whom can run? No, some dumbed down wife whom apparently needs the graft to continue to flow in order to keep her lifestyle. She likely will win telling all you need to know about the voters of that district.

RE: Was Cummings sick?

Yes, very. Hidden by the press, but he had been in very poor health for some time, recently had surgery, and had to walk with a walker.

Did the Almighty remove him? Maybe. I do think the hand of God has protected our President. Despite that Cummings will be replaced on the Oversight committee by a like-minded individual, it is bound to slow the nasty scoundrels a bit.

>> It's the perfect time for his rat-infested district to make a change. All it will take is for someone to remind the voters with ad after ad about it, what Cummings didn't do about it <<<

Ummm, no. Sorry. The district is D+26 and is one of the safest RAT districts in the nation. They would elect the BTK Killer to Congress if he got on the ballot with a "D" next to his name.

Although the GOP could have a little fun here if they found ANOTHER guy named "Elijah Cummings" and got him on the ballot as the GOP nominee...
