I am so saddened to hear of the passing of Congressman Elijah Cummings. A true giant and champion for democracy. He was a fighter and patriot who loved this country and left a lasting legacy in American history. Sending love and prayers to his entire family, friends and staff. pic.twitter.com/mF9lesX38W— Meghan McCain (@MeghanMcCain) October 17, 2019

A devastating loss for our country.

Chairman Cummings was a giant: a universally respected leader who brought profound insight, commitment, and moral fortitude to Congress.

His guidance and vision was an enormous gift. I will forever cherish his example. May he rest in power. https://t.co/D0RsKsM5fh— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) October 17, 2019

I remember this powerful stalwart man walking in a group by some Tea Party protesters with the newly handed over gable to gloat their taking the House back. “They called me a “$&@$&$” he falsely charged of those peaceful protesters.

I remember the Looney Tunes cartoon where Yosemite Sam is killed and approaches a pair of escalators, and the “up” escalator is roped off.

Remember Bruce Willis up on the light tower at the end of “The Last Boy Scout”?

That is me today.

Cummings needs company.

I believe that was Emmanuel Cleaver who threw out those accusations. Nervous Nancy held the gavel with an ecstatic look on her face as she passed by the protesters.

No longer living proof that you can be successful without ever holding a real job.

No worries. Bernie Sanders is still an outstanding example of that.

Yeah, and for “surgary” take a look at this thread/article which should be titled “Saint Elijah”

The REAL Cummings.

Oh and Con98, I read this thread from the bottom.

Thank you so much for posting all of the tweets from lovers of the swamp!

Hopefully he made his peace with God before he passed.

If it came suddenly, it’s possible he didn’t.
