(#5537) The republican party keeps playing games with Ukrainian lives!

      Everyday I check to see if the republicans in the House will finally get to a point where they put the Ukrainian aid bill up for a vote. Everyday I continue to be disappointed. They always have some lame excuse for not giving the Senate passed Ukrainian bill a vote and each time it gets more lame if that is possible. They have no justifiable excuse for withholding the aid because they don't admit the urgency of the aid that is already 4 months late in getting to Ukraine. They tell us that other things are more important but don't work on the other things and instead spend more time away from Washington than they would if they were serious.
     For those of you who don't follow politics here in America it is all about not telling the truth with republicans. They have some power and are using that power to not only destroy the democratic process here but are working to help the tyrant putin because they worship at the altar of their false god trump. Yes, the republican party is now more cult like than representative of their voters. To republicans, power is the essence of their purpose, not governing to the betterment of our society. You can see it with trump who is the epitome of someone who would trade democracy for tyrannical rule. He has instructed his House sycophants like johnson to withhold the Ukrainian aid vote to make Joe Biden look bad.
     That is the kind of person trump is, like nixon, who kept the Vietnam war going so as to hurt democrat Hubert Humphrey in the 1968 presidential election. The republican party is about not telling the truth about things so that they can fool many people into believing they care about our democracy. Even though they have in the face of us taken away the right of women to be equal partners in our democracy. It is my hope that one day we the American electorate will wake up to the fact that republicans are not sincere nor allies with the rest of us in keeping the dream of our foreparents alive and evolving. Shame on them and for those who vote for them to continue to destroy our democracy!
