Republicans are the problem. Reality training in required

Republicans speak with forked tongue.

Keep backing Ukraine; GOP doesn't back words:
Keep providing aid to Ukraine! 

Why defund Ukrainian aid? When we send arms and aid to Ukraine, we drain Russia’s military without risking American lives. When talking about appropriate and effective assistance going toward our military goals I can’t think of a better scenario, at least for America.

It also puts our money where our mouths are (so to speak) when saying our goal is to promote democracy around the globe.

GOP’s actions speak volumes

Republicans are hypocrites. They say one thing for political advantage and then they do the opposite.

Republicans claim to love the Constitution, be pro-life, be for small government, and be the party of law and order. 

Let’s see:

Republicans need reality teaching!

• While claiming to “love the Constitution,” you want to stop the peaceful transfer of power.
• While claiming to “love the Constitution,” you restrict voting rights for people who don’t look like you.
• While claiming to “love the Constitution,” you disenfranchise eligible citizens so they can’t vote.
• While claiming to “love the Constitution,” you participate in (or cause) an insurrection to overthrow our government.
• While claiming to “love the Constitution,” you ignore the Supreme Court’s orders regarding gerrymandering.
• While claiming to be “pro-life,” you tried to take away healthcare over 70 times.
• While claiming to be “pro-life,” you support forced pregnancy.
• While claiming to be “pro-life,” you want to end Social Security and Medicare.
• While claiming to be for “pro-life,” you create the greatest wealth inequality since the 1930s.
• While claiming to be “pro-life,” you propose eliminating the protection of pesky “regulations” so corporations can do anything they want.
• While claiming to be “pro-life,” you endanger every living thing on the planet by denying climate change.
• While claiming to be for “small government,” you insert the government in to every OBGYN’s office.
• While claiming to stand for “law and order,” you go along with subjugating and politicizing the Judicial branch of government to the president’s or your party’s whims.
• While claiming to stand for “law and order,” you allow a complete fraud to be a sitting Congressman and chair of two committees.

Yes, hypocritic Republicans, your partisan political actions speak much louder than your words.
