Rand Paul, Tommy Tooberville, and Tim Scott all, unexplainably, missed the vote on the 61 billion dollar aid package to Ukraine.
Their offices aren't responding why they missed the vote which opens the door for me to speculate.
1. Trump has some really good dirt on them.
2. They love Russia more than the United States.
3. They love Dictatorships more than democracies.
4. Putin gives them money.
5. Putin will help to get them reelected.

Weird hed not vote no. I think it should be mandatory that all house and senators show up to vote unless legitimate sickness or funeral. They dont work many days as it is.

Pension is enough for the local clubhouse dues.
