Feel this is a good accompanying piece for all the folk insisting on caping for a Blackwater merc wth a nazi tattoo because he said something they liked.

    Tulsi Gabbard was outed as a russian asset really early in her career. I can’t find some of the older articles but the allegations have been around for at least a decade now.

    She was never Bernie Adjacent. Maybe Jill Stein adjacent. She’s the congresswoman version of a Tankie, pretend to be left to make the USA look bad, dive head first into authoritarianism at the first opportunity.

      I would be interested in seeing some of those articles, I remember word going around about this and couldn’t find any proof other than Hilary Clinton saying she was compromised.

      When she was running she was for 90 percent of Bernies policies with the added “no more wars” twist. It’s crazy to remember considering where she is now but that was the political path she was going for, along with blowing up Kamala and Pete on stage calling them out for being shit in generally.

      Regardless, the point is do your homework when listening to professional liars giving their stump speeches.
