What is Gabbard's story these days? She hates Harris (nothing wrong with that: in the US we are all entitled to hate any politicians we want)? Or she aligns with Trump in deeper ways now? I remember Gabbard from the 2020 Dem primary. She clobbered Harris pretty well back then. But she didn't come across as even slightly likely to sympathize with Trump.

Since then, she has been on Fox News a lot. I wonder if it changed her?

She’s a grifter and has always been a grifter.

Hillary Clinton called Tulsi out explicitly as a Russian asset. I think she was right about that.

There's some evidence she's a cult member, and was posturing as some kind of Manchurian candidate.

No, really.

Mike Prysner has made a few decent podcasts (QAA, eyes left) following her political career and service. I don't think you can definitionally tie her to membership, but she's got some questionable associations.

Science of identity?

I hadn't heard of it til the odd confluence of seeing Prysner's name on QAA. His own podcast eyes left covers her recent bio.

She is showing typical grifter behavior like many who changed their ideologies on a dime to further self interest.

Tulsi Gabbard is part of the Science of Identity cult. She was literally raised in this cult and is Chris Butler's heir apparent. They're viciously anti-gay and she lied to the voters to be elected in Hawaii as a Democrat.

Q-Anon Anonymous did a great episode about this

Thanks, I hadn't heard of that and it is interesting.
