  1. Bless your heart, good luck. We could use another Cummings in the House. Especially a woman and a woman of color. 👍🙏

    1. @Mary Ann Lammersen
      Where does the yearly billions of dollars in federal aid to Baltimore go? We can’t ask Elijah anymore, can we.

    2. @Back in Black No, we can’t, but as a resident we can ask for a public accounting of where that $ went and I’ll bet it went to much needed services but is not enough. Instead of asking where the money went, we should find out and then we will know what the problems are. Problem solving 101.

    1. slush fund family, looking to be elected so she can keep the dirty money flowing. look it up. ps any politician with a non profit like the cummings family is probably being funneled money for their vote.. the more you know.

    2. Why do you assume Maya is a “she?” When will bigots such as yourself stop feeling the need to advertise your sexism on social media?

    3. @Lilli L’amour Yeah. As opposed to Chocolate Chandra. LOL. This woman is a pandering liar. She sounds like Sarah Palin.

    1. LOVE WATCHING THIS GUY Trump , You must remember Trump is one of us , ,his light is in each of us ,meaning we all shine as bright as he does So tell me how did such darkness come to rule our nation ,we all should be ashamed especially those entrusted with our sovereignty

    2. She’s was married to a famous politician, she’s a member of the 1%, and because she is both a woman and black she is at least a solid 8 on the 10 point identity politics hierarchy scale. If she starts dating a woman, she could be president.

  2. Nice to hear her speak about the people all over the world who are trashed, cheated and threatened by the coward and liar in the White House.

    1. What did Elijah ever do for Baltimore? Where’d those billions of dollars for the city go? How’d Elijah get so rich being a career politician?

    2. slush fund family, looking to be elected so she can keep the dirty money flowing. look it up. ps any politician with a non profit like the cummings family is probably being funneled money for their vote.. the more you know.

    3. Lowest black unemployment in recorded U.S. history. Trump will get the support of at least 35% of blacks which spells doom for the leftists.

  3. Maya actually give me Hope…Thank you for your service… she is the kind of woman that makes all of us want to contribute. Thanks again for such a positive message in such trying times…Vote Blue…2020/2022/2024/2026 etc…Get It…

  4. Dr. Cummings – I’m praying for your quick recovery from surgery, praying your strength to run this race!

  5. My condolences you had one heck of a husband. And Elijah and turn had one heck of a wife. Good luck on your run I think you would be amazing. Elijah is Dancing with the angels looking down smiling at you.

    1. @misterjag LOVE WATCHING THIS GUY Trump , You must remember Trump is one of us , ,his light is in each of us ,meaning we all shine as bright as he does So tell me how did such darkness come to rule our nation ,we all should be ashamed especially those entrusted with our sovereignty

    1. And we would like more women’s to run too. Let’s us see what the women’s can do. And just because i am a democrat, don’t mean that we don’t need the new republican’s. of course we need ya’ll. to make the government balanced. we want them all to work together moving forward. And all we ask of them. is to look out for all people. rich and poor. Stop playing games with people lives. like trump has already done, All i am saying is, just for one minute put yourself in their shoe’s. Would you think it ok, it that what one of us. To watch your kid’s die in cages. or pull back troop’s. and you know for a fact. That people are going to die. And jim jordan say but it was sent. yes too late. and congress had passed that bill month’s ago. When congress said send it a.s.a.p. as you see he didn’t send it. Because he needed dirt on mr biden. So trump that why the people and kid’s had to die. Come on republican’s we know for a fact you are better and more powerful then that. but we will see in 2020.

  6. At 1st before listening to her I thought “Oh, right, the wife now wants to be in the spot light?” After hearing the her speak, she is the real deal. Go Maya!

  7. I almost cried. Love her spirit. We need a return to ethics, personal responsibility, and empathy. Amazing soul.💞💞💞

  8. Wow she’s amazing
    Godspeed and may your medical procedure go smoothly

    On another note can anyone please name 1 Republican who is inspiring when you listen to them?
    Serious question

    1. JunkPunk Productions
      No…I’m sorry to say no. Not one. Lost all respect. I’m an independent. It’ll be a long long time. It sickens me how politics is more important than integrity OR the constitution. They should all be voted out!!!

  9. Mrs. Cummings, God bless and keep you and your family. You will make a great legislator. Much success to you.

  10. She is a very great smart lady, and there should be more lady leaders like her in the world, it would surely be a better place.

  11. Maya should throw her hat into the ring and take a shot. Hugely impressive lady who has the ability to unite and inspire. What better legacy for Elijah.
