Elijah Cummings, ranking member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, talks with Rachel Maddow about FBI Director James Comey's letter to Congress Friday, the political context and timing, and calls for Comey to provide further, clarifying information before the weekend is out in the interest of fairness to Hillary Clinton.

Cummings, a national embarrassment, has never met a Democrat crook, Black or White, that he couldn’t try to defend with his total lack of logic.

Elijah is a complete and utter dolt!

He goes on the rapid talking lesbian’s anti-news show expecting a large audience. He always adds nothing to discourse due to the fact that he’s as smart as a sack of rocks.

I’m sure the FBI is so scared of you they will bow to YOUR demand.

I can barely wait to see this moron join a long line of failed RAT CROOKs in the slammer.

On Feb 27, 2015, at 11:12 PM, “Kendall, David”

Talked to Heather late afternoon aand told her I’d heard from Dem Staff Director on Benghazi Select Comm that NYT was sniffing around, maybe to do a story on State production to Committee or on our production to State. I’d gotten a call from NYT’s Mike Schmidt (very young) about 2:00 pm—said nothing on background or on record. I didn’t feel he had anything, but. We may get a further inquiry from him over weekend.

RELATED??

Susanne Sachsman Grooms — Democratic staff director and general counsel
Sachsman Grooms, a former IRS and Justice Department lawyer, is well-versed in political investigations, having worked since 2011 for Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.) on the House Oversight Committee, which investigates the executive branch and is often embroiled in partisan battles as a result. Cummings is also the ranking member on the Benghazi panel.

Over the past few years she worked as a lead attorney for the Democrats on multiple contentious GOP investigations including the “Fast and Furious” gun-walking operation and the IRS probe of tea party groups. On each of those, Democrats and Republicans butted heads, with the GOP accusing the administration of foul play and Democrats calling the investigations a partisan circus.

She’s also worked Benghazi issues before when former Oversight Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) was running his own highly-charged probe of the terrorist attacks. On the other side, Gowdy also has taken on two former Oversight investigators

Long ago in NJ a top mafia guy on trial and his attorney made a motion for the fbi to release any illegally obtained eavesdropping materials they had. The expectation was they could not admit having any. They released them in total. Moral of story: never ask question if you cannot live with consequences. Guy was convicted on all counts I believe.

...calls for Comey to provide further, clarifying information...


Clue for Elijah...you can call for a taxi, it doesn't mean it's going to pick you up.

I figured the way they were going to go after Comey was to attack him personally. I guess that will come later this week after they spend the weekend digging up dirt.

--How does Cummings know what was in the letter? Hillary told me it was only sent to Republicans....

Hillary conveniently failed to point out the letter was also cc'd to the rats.
