Democratic Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., died Thursday morning at Johns Hopkins Hospital from “complications concerning longstanding health challenges,” his office said in a statement.
Cummings, 68, was the chairman of the House Oversight and Reform Committee and heavily involved in the impeachment inquiry.
Cummings, of Baltimore, has not returned to work after an undisclosed medical procedure that he said would only keep him away for about a week. […]
He missed two roll call votes Thursday, the first day back following a two-week recess. He previously released a statement saying he’d be back by the time the session resumed. The 68-year-old hasn’t taken part in a roll call vote since Sept. 11.
The unidentified procedure caused Cummings to miss a September hearing on Washington, D.C., statehood. His statement didn’t detail the procedure. He previously was treated for heart and knee issues.

Ha! That’s the way to look at it!
“More like a snake. He is probably dead but the body will keep writhing for 24 hours.”
Cummings was as mean as a rattlesnake. Oh yes, he really did a lot for the district he represented; the same one that the MSM finally had to show that it was a rat infested area where no one would want to live. What a legacy.

No problem. Now to mention...these things happen in threes. Who will be the two next elderly commie Dem pukes to kick off?
I’m betting on Biden and Sanders.
I must remember that one!

I hate mixing metaphors. They just gum up the beaters and then you gotta dig ‘em out with a butter knife.
NEVER use a passive verb in a news headline. That’s Journalism 101. “He died” or “He is dead” would be acceptable but NEVER “He has died.”
That’s an immediate F for the paper.
Not quite as feel-good a story as when Turd Kennedy and McLame died, but close.
