Tulsi Gabbard laughs at Bill Maher's transphobic remark about "using the wrong pronoun"

Talking about using the word "barbaric" for ISIS he goes on to say "what do we do to get liberals back on the page? Cause, you know, they get upset if you use the wrong pronoun about a transgender person."

Gabbard: "yeah." chuckle

No correction. No rebutal. She just lets it go.

don't doubt it for a minute. Hillary would strike the match if she thought it would gain her a single vote or put a single dollar in her pocket.

Just like they got Obama confused with that president that Martin Sheen played years back.

“She's particularly a favorite of right-wing media. Appearing with Fox's Neil Cavuto last week, she lashed out at the White House for holding an extremism summit with Muslim Americans.”


“But the case of Tulsi Gabbard becomes less curious and more expected once you look at her links to a different set of ethnic and religious hardliners: the Hindu nationalist Indian Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Since her election to Congress, Gabbard has tied herself closely to this party, which has a history of condoning hatred and violence against India's Muslim minority. Many of her stateside donors and supporters are also big supporters of this movement, which disdains secularism and promotes religious sectarianism.”
