Elijah Cummings

Chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Elijah Cummings and Chairwoman of the Financial Services Committee Maxine Waters executed and signed a secret “Memorandum of Understanding” to “target” President Trump with partisan investigations into his finances, according to Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH).

According to a letter sent from ranking committee member Jim Jordan to Cummings, the secret memos have also been signed by House Intel Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) who has repeatedly stated he has vowed to continue to investigate the President even though Mueller concluded Trump did not conspire with the Kremlin during the 2016 election.

House Democrats from three different committees subpoenaed Trump’s financial records from Deutsche Bank and accounting firm Mazars Monday.

A Congressional official told investigative reporter Sara Carter that the MOUs signed by Dems is an agreement to conspire to attack President Trump.

“We’d describe (the MOUs) as an agreement to conspire and coordinate their efforts to attack and investigate POTUS,” said a congressional official with knowledge of the MOUs. “This is not how committee’s normally operate. Dems aren’t interested in legislating. Only attacking POTUS.”

Congressman Jim Jordan requested that Elijah Cummings answer very specific questions about the secret memos.

Via Sara Carter:

“If you intend to continue to use the Committee’s limited resources to attack President Trump for political gain, I hope that you will at least be transparent about your actions,” said Jordan at the end of his letter. “Your ability to function as a fair and unbiased finder of fact is now at grave risk. The Members of the Committee—and, more importantly, the American citizens we represent—deserve to know exactly how you are leading this Committee. I look forward to your detailed answers to these questions.” Questions for Cummings How many MOUs with committee chairpersons have you signed as Chairman since the beginning of the 116th Congress? Would you provide the Committee with a detailed list of the other MOUs you have signed, including their dates, signatories, and topics? Why did you not publicly disclose that you had signed MOUs with committee chairpersons? Will you publicly disclose all the MOUs you have signed as Chairman since the beginning of the 116th Congress? Why did you choose not to consult with any Republican Members before signing these MOUs? Have you signed any MOUs as Chairman with any entities outside of the House Representatives relating to the Committee’s oversight or legislative work? To the extent your MOUs create duties for the Committee that conflict with the Rules of the House of Representatives or the Rules of the Committee, which duties prevail? The Rules of the Committee for the 116th Congress do not authorize the Chairman to bind the Committee through an MOU.[2]Could you explain the specific authority that allows you to bind the Committee through an MOU without first obtaining approval through a vote of the Committee? As I understand your MOU with Chairwoman Waters, you have committed to sharing Committee information with the Financial Services Committee. This provision of your MOU may conflict with Rules of the House of Representatives and the Committee’s whistleblower protocol, which requires the Committee to keep some Committee information confidential. Will you still protect the confidentiality of whistleblower information notwithstanding your apparent obligation to share it with the Financial Services Committee? As I understand your MOU with Chairwoman Waters, you have agreed to consult with her before issuing a subpoena. Do you intend to consult with Chairwoman Waters before or after you consult with me, as required by Committee Rules? If I object to your proposed subpoena, do you intend to consult with Chairwoman Waters before or after the Committee votes, as you promised in the Committee’s organizing meeting? As I understand your MOU with Chairwoman Waters, you have declined to include any provision protecting the Minority’s rights to documentary or testimonial information. Can you guarantee that Minority Members will have the same access to documentary or testimonial information under this MOU as we do in every other Committee inquiry?
