Chairman of the House Committee for Oversight and Reform. Waiting for the conspiracy theories to start flying. Will the autopsy report be classified?

NPR did a nice piece on him this morning. The question on my mind they didn't ask/answer was "how well did he do for his constituents in Baltimore?" Crime rate, homicides, poverty, etc. They did mention Trump getting on him for his rat infested district, but the correspondent dismissed it, saying that didn't go anywhere...

Guy had moments in DC when I admired him...but his own spot in
Baltimore deserved full attention

The man is a piece of shyte congressman(as most congress people are) but I didn't know it was his duty to control crime, homicide, poverty, rat infestation rates in his district. This one is on the people of Baltimore not congress.

Fair point. I totally agree that folks are responsible for their own outcomes.
In an NPR (https://www.npr.org/2019/10/17/770851734/maryland-democratic-rep-elijah-cummings-dies-at-68) article, Cummings says
"Mr. President, I go home to my district daily," Cummings fired back in a letter to Trump. "Each morning, I wake up, and I go and fight for my neighbors."
Referring to investigations of the president, which he perceived as the true impetus for the derogatory remarks, Cummings said in the letter that it is "my constitutional duty to conduct oversight of the Executive Branch. But it is my moral duty to fight for my constituents."
I'd just be curious is his actions helped or hindered Baltimoreans' situation, seeing how passionate Cummings says he was about his constituents...

A great quote.
I know...but be careful with this one.
There is very similar one claimed to be said by Mark Twain.
That one is a fake.
But Darrow said this in his biography. (https://www.theatlantic.com/national/archive/2011/05/mark-twain-didnt-say-thing-about-obituaries/350238/)

If he had all these health challenges he should have retired a long time ago and and got the treatment that he needed. Problem is, by retiring he would have to relinquish his power and he didn't want to lose it. He cared too much about the power he didn't want to let it go.

I thought he was in his 80s. He did not age well.

The member of Congress tapped to replace Rep. Elijah Cummings as chair of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform recently “suffered a medical episode.”
New York Rep. Carolyn Maloney was in Manhattan when she “suffered a fainting spell” during the public appearance just 10 days ago.

If you didn't watch the video, Elijah Cummings was enabling and covering for child trafficking in his Maryland District and that is what he was executed for.

Brother was telling me yesterday that his wife might take his seat.
I saw that, they are just itching to bring back hereditary aristocracy.
They wanted to give the Senate seat McCain died in (I refuse to call it his) to his wife or daughter too.
