Tulis Gabbard |
They will distort and twist anything to complete their vicious takedown.
She is drawing more fire here in the United States than from when she was on activity duty in Iraq. And of all the hits, the latest from NBC News is the most outrageous.

NBC News, to Claim Russia Supports Tulsi Gabbard, Relies on Firm Just Caught Fabricating Russia Data for the Democratic Party https://t.co/t3pS4zwyV2
"What’s particularly unethical about the NBC report is it touts New Knowledge as “the company the Senate used to track Russian activities in the 2016 election,” while concealing the fraud that this firm’s CEO just got caught perpetrating on behalf of the Democratic Party"— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) February 3, 2019
This NBC News report is a total disgrace from top to bottom. It's a joke using the most minimal journalistic standards. But that's because NBC is in partnership with the Democratic Party (and intel community) to smear any Dem adversary, on the left or right, as a Kremlin tool: pic.twitter.com/1jUhJQuhJu— Glenn Greenwald (@ggreenwald) February 3, 2019
-RWAlso, the pitiful claim from NBC reporter @bpopken - "the Kremlin already has a crush on Tulsi Gabbard" - would be denounced as not just adolescent but sexist if used against a female Presidential candidate who the Democratic establishment likes.

Quick: someone remind me why we hate the Russians? I know we are supposed to, but I forgot why.
ReplyDeleteThey make vodka which means little water: voda = water, ki = little. That's why we hate them this week.
ReplyDeleteActually, it doesn't mean anything like that. The relationship between "voda" (вода, water) and "vodka" (водка, vodka) is as between neutral/respectful and colloquial/derivative/dismissive (compare "bahbah" - "woman" (used mostly by males) and "babka" - "grandma" with undertones of being useless or obnoxious). The -ka forms are pretty old, so meanings of the root words and -ka forms sometimes diverged (as in case of voda and vodka; by the way, the proper modern diminutive for voda is vodichka). Colloquial Russian often creatively uses grammatical or derivative forms of words (and even deliberate misspellings) to convey nuances and meanings (to the point of complete

The more hate they throw at her, the more I like her.
ReplyDelete"She is drawing more fire here in the United States than from when she was on activity duty in Iraq." That's a great line. I've been for Tulsi 2020 since she dared to say she didn't fear the Clintons or hteir retribution like so many others did. when she endorsed Bernie in 2016. Tulsi knows the difference between foreign policy "experience" and "good judgment." She knew that Hillary Clinton had the so-called experience but she said Sanders had the good judgment that is required for a commander in chief. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzYoDOXsNm8
