As Ranking Member of the Bengowdy Committee, Elijah Cummings set a standard for the rest of the House Democrats to follow. He blew the lid off the proceedings there with a series of must-read bulletins on the Republican plot to stop Hillary.
Cummings is the Ranking Member of the House Oversight Committee, too, and when he has something to say, never, ever, cut his mic. He has a big booming voice. Okay, Darrell Issa?
Today, Cummings issued a statement after Oversight Committee Chair Jason Chaffetz called an emergency hearing with FBI Director James Comey for tomorrow. The hearing is scheduled for less than 48 hours after Comey’s recommendation against any prosecution of Hillary Clinton relating to her use of private email.
If anyone has the thread of this story from its start to the present, it would be Cummings. Here’s an excerpt from his statement:
