Tulsi Gabbard’s at it again, folx!
This week, the ex-LGBTQ ally went on Fox News to once again push her eye-rolling narrative that Hillary Clinton conspired with the “Deep State” to kill her chances of being president in 2020.
Appearing on Fox News Primetime to take what she called “something of a victory lap” after attorney Michael Sussmann was indicted for “not disclosing his ties to the Hillary Clinton campaign when he reported damaging information about former President Donald Trump to the FBI,” Gabbard said the indictment was even more evidence of what she’s been saying all along.
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“It really points to the fact that we have a situation in our country where the powerful elite, people like Hillary Clinton and those around her—the deep state, the media—they’re all colluding to destroy outsiders who they deem as posing a threat to their power,” she said.
Gabbard went on to say that what Clinton & Co. essentially do is “create this dictatorship” that separates “those who put country first, those who are not afraid to challenge the establishment” from everyone else and then try to “eliminate these outsiders if they indeed pose a threat to their power.”
Riiiiight. We’re sure Tulsi’s failed presidential campaign had to do with that nonsense and not the fact that she was running in a very crowded field of extremely qualified candidates and, oh yeah, she has a looooong history of advocating for antigay causes, which is generally something most Democrats find disqualifying these days.

When asked whether Clinton caused harm to her pristine public image, Gabbard answered in the affirmative before comparing herself… to Donald Trump?
“This happened to me. It also happened to Donald Trump. This is not about Democrats or Republicans. It’s about their concerted and collective effort working together to destroy and silence who challenge their power.”
Hmmmm. We’re not sure comparing yourself to Donald Trump on Fox News is the smartest way to get Democrats to support you. Of course, when it comes to smart campaign strategies, Gabbard’s record is far from exceptional.
Watch. Or don’t.

It’s saying stuff like this that made her a not very appealing candidate.

Thankfully, voters made the right choice and dumped this fringe rogue bitch from her campaign trail.
jcool
like her friends on fox, she says “deep state” as if it were an organization, but it’s really just code for “a lot of people don’t like you”

It’s hilarious to me the right is still pressed about Hillary Clinton. The lengths they will go, and the stories they tell themselves… complete psychosis.
Chrisk
Hillary was a powerful women who rightfully should’ve been President. They’re misogynist pigs at the end of the day. They at least have AOC to go after now.
WillParkinson
Ally? We obviously have different takes on that word. She was our ‘friend’ when it was convenient, nothing more.

I cant stop laughing at her assertion that she had a pristine public image. What crap. Ask any gay person in Hawaii about her or anyone in Hawaii period about her and her terrible father. They do have their fans but they have more who despise their whole family. I could not believe it when she switched parties and immediately became gays BFF after YEARS of antigay behavior and actions. I never believed for one hot minute that she had changed her spots. SHE WAS JUST LYING —AGAIN. The right has almost perfected the art of the BIG LIE. She was NEVER a dem as she was never an ally. GO away you pos horrible woman. We dems arent as easily deceived as the republican deplorables so no we did not believe you had changed at all and we were right. GO AWAY or go back to the party of the insanely gullible
BSINPS
I agree with you 100%, I’m originally from Hawaii. Thank you. I believe she just wanted that gay vote.
Maybe she should blame herself.

Hard to understand how she ever won an election in Hawaii. Must have been some kind of fluke.
Gabberd is just part of the divisive circus, and imo, she should go back where she came from – Russia.
Mack
She probably ran for Congress in a Democratic seat as a Democrat. Hell look at the extreme right wingers and you can see how they got elected-same thing.
botolani
Believe it or not, her chief opponent for that race, also a democrat, had just as bad of a record on gay issues and abortion as she did, and was a renowned bully with a history of less than ethical activity. Tulsi was comparatively more of an unknown and thus people flocked to her as the alternative.

Tulsa Gabbard is one of the strangest freaks in all of political-dom.

Tulsi was like that uninvited party guest who snuck in and hung around being annoying until someone threw her out. With the trash. Where she belongs.
Mr. Stadnick
Some one should ask her if she is missing a glove or an earring, then explain it was given to Hillary so she and her coven (AOC, Nancy Pelosi, Elizabeth Warren, Diane Feinstein, Liz Cheney, and the rest) can cast an evil spell on Tulsi.
skeldare
Is she an ally of the ex-gay movement or is she someone who used to be a gay ally?
Max
beware a jilted woman
Cam
She isn’t an ex ally. She said many anti-LGBTQ things, then when she needed to, for politics, she pretended to recant, but kept slipping up.
She was always a right winger in hiding, the only difference was, she did a much crappier job of pretending than Jill Stein and got caught too early and killed her chances of running as a spoiler candidate.
BaltoSteve
She strikes me as the type of person to do you wrong and then, when you factually relate how she did you wrong, threatens to sue you for slander and/or defamation (depending on the medium used to relay the factual information).
Kangol2
Is Tulsi still trying prop up the dictator Bashar Al-Assad, who has slaughtered his own people repeatedly? Gassing, bombing, you name it, with the support of Russia. She might answer a few more questions about her support for Assad, among other things.
jaypowers83
When was she ever a LGBTQ ally? Didn’t she say same sex marriage should be banned with an amendment in the constitution?

You because YOU’RE a horrible human being. Dear !!
