    Lawmakers, celebrities, journalists and other high-profile figures paid tribute to the veteran member of Congress, who died early Thursday “due to complications concerning long standing health challenges,” his office said.

    Why does someone that supposedly served his people for 23 years yet 20% of them still remained on food stamps deserve respect?

    You lefties sure seem proud of such a worthwhile accomplishment.

    Yep, he was quite the statesman as he berates people doing their job and following the law:

    Cummings on migrant child detention: ‘None of us would have our children in that position.’
    "When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny."

    The hypocrite liar rants as he defends the incompetence of the Obama Administrations lies about Benghazi:

    Yeah.....feigned ignorance in relation to a clearly detailed in contextual integrity and consistency sarcastic retort....might work, If I were as stupid are you are pretending to be. You thought you were wrong ONE TIME....turns out you were merely MISTAKEN...hun? I am not good with hints can you be just a little more arrogantly condescending in pretending to be the smartest person in the room?

    Of course you did not comprehend the sarcasm.....we are to believe that A GOOD RUN represents honor and integrity instead of criminality.

    Conclusion? You can't stand to admit.....YOU MADE A MISTAKE...so you double down, just like a pussy liberal.

    It's just shy of 60% black.

    I thought Democrats were opposed to gerrymandering.

    I wouldn't have made the statement about gerrymandering unless the facts were there.

    Don't many/most districts look funky like that?

    CFM is just flat out racist which is why he's trying to take away from Cummings. Now don't get me wrong, there is a lot I disagree with politically about Cummings but Sailor isn't wrong in that the man came from nothing and was able to make something of his life. That is to be commended.

    Blacks make up 62% of Baltimore's population. I assumed it would be hard to draw a district there that did not have a black majority, but there are only 389,000 which is only about 50% of a the population needed for a congressional district.

    No, they don't. There are seven in my State. For the most part, except for the one blue gerrymandered majority minority district, they're not oddly shaped at all.

    Most districts in the country aren't gerrymandered to create a 60% black population where the State as a whole is less than half of that.

    Getting elected when you have a built in guarantee isn't something. Something would have been not having 20% of your district rely on food stamps.

    Since when is making yourself a millionaire on a civil servants salary a good run? Are you saying that bilking the public is good.
