Rep. Elijah Cummings, the powerful House Democrat who represented Baltimore for more than two decades and was a vocal critic of President Trump, died early Thursday after battling health problems, his office said in a statement.
Cummings, who was 68, died at Gilchrist Hospice Care, a Johns Hopkins affiliate. As chairman of the House Oversight and Reform Committee, he was one of the most powerful Democrats in Washington, and played a key role in the House Democrats' ongoing efforts to impeach Trump.

More trucks are needed to pick up shredded paper at Elijah Cummings’ office.
I’d give this death 50/50 odds of being natural...
Too bad he didn’t live long enough to see Donald J Trump sworn in again.
One down.
I’m sure his wife will be given his seat, this is how the rats operate. She must secure the corruption and crimes they both were engaged in
His hate had become too much an element in his life. It could be that knowing his hate of Trump was coming to nothing, he had nothing else to live for.
May God have mercy on his eternal soul.
Cummings in his younger years was a Civil Rights hero.
In his later years his assumption of absolute moral superiority to “ordinary” Americans led to the politics of division and hate.A race monger of the highest order, a colleague of racial shakedown artist Rev. Al Sharpton,both cut from the same liberal fascist mold.
Cummings was apoplectic about making America Great Again. His Utopia of a balkanized America attempted by Obama was slipping away. That Utopia was the very transformation of America into a racial / ethic mosaic where various areas of the nation would be ruled by racial and ethnic minorities who were to be finally victorious over the rest of America that allegedly exploited them. But wait, their utopian model did not include Jews and Asians! The Sanctuary City/Sanctuary State movement, the abandonment of US Sovereignty , and apology for US history were all part and parcel of Elijah Cummings later life, and his sordid legacy.
He has gone. And may his absence be filled with a politician from his community who understands that President Trump is the best thing that has happened to the Black Community since emancipation. The employment figures do not lie.
Hallelujah!
I wonder what he had on hillary? :-)
John’s Hopkins eh? Wonder if MFA will cover that?
Cummings, Satan will have a place in Hell’s Congress for you. May Cummings’ district have God’s grace and mercy and let the district elect an American...
Thankfully the Honorable Gentleman was covered by the finest health plan ever known to human civilization.
RIP And Memory Eternal.
All that anger did him in.
Thank God, we’re free of him at last!
Does RBG know?
He got rich “representing” a horrible wasteland of a city.
“The Wire” tells a lot of his story.
It is not a pretty tale.
It was the anger that did him in.
