Pay to play, the Democrat way. Now it's Elijah Cummings

Is there no end to Democrat corruption?

Here's what's going on with one of the most supposedly respectable of them, Rep. Elijah Cummings of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, according to the Washington Examiner:

A charity run by the wife of Rep. Elijah Cummings received millions from special interest groups and corporations that had business before her husband's committee and could have been used illegally, according to an IRS complaint filed by an ethics watchdog group.

Cummings, 68, a Maryland Democrat, is chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. His wife, Maya Rockeymoore, 48, is the chairman of the Maryland Democratic Party and briefly ran in the state's gubernatorial race last year. The couple married in 2008. Cummings was once heavily in debt — in part due to hefty child support payments to his first wife and two other women he had children with — but his financial situation has improved considerably over the past decade.

What this shows is that for all their calls for President Trump's tax returns, and for all their claims to our tax money and regulatory enthusiasm, they're still in the same game they're famous for — using public office to get rich. The Examiner report (which is very well written, by the way) points out that political power has been good for Cummings's pocketbook.

Wow! Gropey-Joe and his son caught in Chinese shinanigans... now Cummings’ wife caught with her hand in the cookie jar. Who’s next? Someone should shed some daylight on Stretch Pelosi and pursue Pantsuit’s varied crimes.

No. It’s part of their platform, strategy and tactics. Count on it.

Cummings was once heavily in debt when he dumped his wife for the much younger Maya.
He had hefty child support payments to his first wife and two other women he impregnated.
but his financial situation has improved considerably over the past decade.

Democrap Cummings is not exactly an intellectual giant-----more of a braindead midget.
So they had to come up with a simplistic ripoff that tied into Cummings
House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chair.

His second wife, Maya Rockeymoore, 48, is the chairman of the Maryland Democratic Party
and briefly ran in the state's gubernatorial race last year. The couple married in 2008.

Ms Rockeymoore runs two entities whose operations appear to have overlapped,
according to the IRS complaint filed by watchdog group the National Legal and Policy Center on Monday:
<><> a nonprofit called the Center for Global Policy Solutions, and,
<><> a for-profit consulting firm called Global Policy Solutions, LLC.

====================================

This scam is sophmorically easy to pull off, even for a moron like Cummings. It is very common for shysters in business to open bank ccounts with similar names as the legit buiness in order o siphon off money to hide it from partners, associates, investors, the IRS, etc.

Here's how Cummings and his wife siphoned off huge amounts for themselves.
<><> early on they established two entities, one non-profit and a for profit.
<><> as the money poured into the N/P, Cummings and Rockymoore systematically transferred monies to the private company with a similar name.

Keep in mind, the private company, unlike the N/P, is exempt from reporting all of their significant expenditures like he n/p does

SIPHONINGS A CINCH It’s so easy even a sub-human retard can siphon off money by putting checks into the new accounts with similar names, depositing checks that were made out to the original entity. Even your bank advises that if a check-writer “mis-spelled” your name, to just endorse the check with the correct name.

AND PRESTO: a check made out to N/P Global Policy Solutions, is deposited in the for profit Global Policy Solutions LLC account.

I’m believing more each day, their DNA before they were born determines if they are corrupt and have zero morality!

He’s only 68? Look 85-90 to me. Got the mental acuity of a 3yr old. Pathetic POS.

It's like Cummings for almost all the Black Caucus.......they're ‘rewarded’ for their loyalty to Pelosi etc by getting away with all that crap, even when they get caught....and they do get caught and then they walk.
