Why are they rewarding these republicans with money to do right by our country.

What's next you have to pay them to not get us into a nuclear war or sell us out to another nation.

Come on. Stop this madness, stop the money.

Money should have absolutely no place when being asked to show loyalty to country. Our representatives should do the job they were elected to do. If taking the oath of office and keeping it is too difficult for these clowns, they need to get out or be thrown out.
