1. You're showing your NYC roots, G II

(Joe).

5. So sorry. I've been awake about 10 minutes and heard the sad news, still groggy (but corrected!)

I haven't seen Chuck Scarborough in a LONG time, been outside NYC television range for over 30 years.

6. No worries...It bought back memories

Like Sue Simmons.

[George II]

12. I looked them up - surprisingly Chuck is still doing the 6:00 news on WNBC, Simmons is retired.

He's been there for 45 years.

2. Joe not Chuck

3. I have issues with both Mika and Joe, but as this shows...

together they seem to have brought out a better side for both of them--at least to the extent that they can both appreciate such an incredible example of a good, decent, honorable man as Elijah Cummings.

10. Joe is a repuke through and through.

He just doesnt like tRump. Dont let his "independent" label fool you.

11. Why do you assume that I am "fooled" or have forgotten anything? I merely credit him for recognizing

what a good person Cummings was...

I can usually find a single solitary "good" thing to say about most people--hell, even Hitler apparently loved his dog. That doesn't make him any less evil nor most Republicans any less detestable.

4. Many times i dislike Joe, but today i stand with him.

7. Cummings must have regretted that the battle would continue without him.

Rep. Elijah Cummings: We are in a fight for the soul of our democracy. And you've got to understand that. This is serious business.

8. K&R...👍🏼👍🏼

9. I can disagree with him about many things, but I

can't hate him. He's intelligent, well-read, and has a good sense of humor. But more than that, I believe he loves the US, even if I think he's wrong about some things.

I guess it took a dictator-wanna-be to show us who we are and who is on our side, the side of the USA.

He and Mika did a nice tribute.

13. Mika deserves all the credit for converting joe.

Joe was part of that hard ass bunch That came to congress under Speaker Gingrich.
