Democratic Primaries
Related: About this forumGabbard was just on FOX/Tucker Carlson again trying to position herself as champion...
of the 9/11 families against Saudi Arabia and saying that the US government is neglecting the families while selling weapons to the Saudis. She of course fails to mention that Kushner is BFF with MBS who helped him get funds to bail himself out on the billion he owed on 666 5th Ave., probably in exchange for info on Jamal Khashoggi's movements before he was trapped and butchered on MBS's instructions, not to mention that trump just weeks ago said the Saudis pay cash for weapons.
There was of course no mention of Kushner or trump even though it is well known that both are in bed with MBS. Carlson played along and asked why Hillary Clinton hasn't advocated for the 9/11 families and Gabbard said good question, and why haven't any of the other presidential candidates spoken up about it? This charade is so false and misleading as funds were fought for and won against the repugs by then-senator Clinton during the Bush admin. I know because my wife's niece died in one of the towers and her parents got some of that funding.
Anyway, no one is against the Saudi families but her appearing once again on FOX with false information years later about 9/11 and slamming the Dem contenders while ignoring the current admin's well known and shady connections to the Saudi's is insincere, disingenuous, fake and nothing more than belated attention seeking.

That pretty much guarantees we're going to have a Real Dem Rep in 2021! I love State Senator Kai Kahele's statement about Gov Dean's endorsement!

New York Citys firefighter union today endorsed Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton for re-election, praising the Senators leadership in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks, her steadfast championing of threat-based homeland security funding, and her attention to the health and safety of first responders. The announcement reflects the strong depth and breadth of Senator Clintons support as she faces re-election in November.

Senator Clinton secured $12 million in federal funding to help establish the World Trade Center Worker and Volunteer Medical Screening Program at Mt. Sinai.
Senator Clinton fought a persistent and successful campaign to secure $90 million in additional federal funding for a comprehensive health tracking program to monitor and study the health of emergency services and rescue and recovery personnel exposed to hazardous contaminants at Ground Zero. first responders.
Senator Clinton, along with her colleagues in the New York Congressional delegation and representatives from the City, fire, police and labor unions, worked to restore $125 million in 9/11 worker aid to New York.

I'm so grateful Hillary was there for your husband and all the First Responders and their Families.
Tucker, his fox show, and Gabbard need to put that in their pipe and smoke it.. it is propaganda central.. and that's where she went in her attempt to re-write history. Could she be anymore obvious?
