Mr. Lewis, what did you know about the IRS targeting conservative groups with exempt status, and when did you know it?

Mr. Lewis, did you and senator Schumer write to the IRS regarding this matter?

Mr. Lewis, not only are you incompetent, you are also a DNC hack.

I think civil rights activist types need to see racism around every corner because that’s how they bring home the bacon. Even if it isn’t there, they need to see it and they need to fight it or they lose their raison d’être and become obscure and unneeded.

It works if your intent is to fund raise.

I suppose so but from the donors perspective lighting it on fire would be all the same. I guess it makes them feel special though :)

You can scream, stomp your feet, write terrible, lying articles...it’s not going to change our minds...

WE, The American People ran this election and We The American People voted who WE wanted as Our President...and WE have him...

So go off into your corner, with your little laptop and make up some more lying stories, WE don’t care, because WE know you lie and WE don’t believe anything you say anymore...

Right you are! This behavior, that seems to be common across liberal-dom, makes me start to think these people are all narcissists and what we are seeing is full blown narcissistic rage. I have plenty of experience observing narcissistic rage and honestly, these ongoing tantrums by the media and the rest of the snowflakes look just like narcissistic rage. Only thing you can do is ignore them. If you react, it just gives them supply.

What are they cloning this dude now? I'm pretty certain that is flaming racist liberal Elijah Cummings.

He’s an old partisan. Sometimes they sound like crazy old uncles or aunts living in the attic or basement. There are plenty of them to go around on both sides.

Taking the civil rights gains and trying to trade them for political power cheapens everything that has happened.

It as been pointed out that if the KKK had the power to destroy blacks, they could do no more harm than what black civil rights leaders have done.

I hate to see a good man being used like this.

Oh yeah? And what's 'good' about this man? Not one damn thing.

He's part of the evil that has infested our govt.

Lewis is a lying murdering traitor. Following his trial, conviction, and sentencing, Lewis can rant all he wants until that short drop and quick stop... to the cheers of patriots gathered to watch.

Elijah Cummings is worse than John Lewis. He is a really bad man.

In the 1960s Democrats controlled many of our major cities and blacks who lived in those cities struggled economically.

In the 2010s Democrats STILL control many of our major cities and blacks who live in those cities STILL struggle economically.

Representative Lewis, time to face the ugly truth the Democrat Party has done nothing to help the lives of blacks in this country.

They need to establish IQ, drug/alcohol, and cognizance testing for Members of Congress.

To make these ciivil rights ‘icons’ feel better it would be better for President Trump to suggest America returns to a pre-slavery era, not pre-civil rights era. Would address so many problems. I think America could withstand the 13% population reduction.

You are probably right. But there is lots for them to do. Helping black youth get a decent education, jobs, mentoring those without fathers. The work to be done is huge.

“It appears to me that Lewis has a bad case of dementia. Time for the rubber room.”

Absolutely, and let’s make it an integrated, civil rights, AA certified rubber room by adding a fully restrained, gently medicated John McCain.
