I am glad Clinton is speaking out. She does not need to do this for any other reason than because she knows something and is dropping this into the conversation because it needs to be looked in to. Thank you, Madame first elected President.

Just this morning I was thinking to myself, if only we had yet another BS conspiracy theory to share on the Internets…

And just where do “people out there” get that idea? Hmmm?
She need not coordinate with the Russians to be their tool. And she most certainly is being used. Apparently to greater effect than I realized.

I read that Gabbard is being primaried. Hawaii needs to get rid of her.

Those of us who have been paying attention have seen the effect of the Bots already. When you have a chance to start focusing on the primary, start paying close attention to the comment sections of articles and also follow online polls. Hint. Tulsi often gets abnormally high online poll results that do not remotely correspond to her results in polls of actual live Americans. Hillary is absolutely right. Tulsi may not be an official Putin asset, but she is a Putin Ass (a useful idiot who does not even know she is being used).

this sort of speculation, from somebody with no official position, is both necessary and timely
Throwing around loose talk of treason is more than unnecessary, it’s irresponsible and will provoke a similar counterresponse. Next thing you know we’ll have ex-generals making thinly veiled calls for coup on the pages of the New York Times.
But, but, but, Gabbard surfs. In the eyes of some, that’s all she needs.

Her main point is Russia is setting up an internet infrastructure surrounding the promotion of Gabbard.
Given their interference in 2016, these are the developments that should raise red flags.
Common sense.

Pre-emptive strike by HRC. This is a shot over the bow to Gabbard to put her back on her heels to start.
Is it true? Don’t know. But I think HRC and the people she’s representing want Gabbard out of the race regardless of her relation to Putin, and this is a good way to do it.

Context matters. Clinton had official duties that would have legitimately put her in proximity to world leaders, and it’s been well documented that Putin helped her opponent in the 2016 election, including by artificially inflating support for Stein. The Stein pic implies that she did not have a problem with this.

She might, but it will be to no avail. So long as the check is good Mark Zuckerburg will back anyone Putin chooses.

She’s the Baath candidate.

But, but, but…Gabbard’s a homophobe and an Islamophobe. In the eyes of some, that’s all she needs.

Some years ago a senator from Wisconsin relied on the very same logic.
She’s not a Democrat, I wouldn’t be surprised if she did run as a spoiler.

On the one hand, this is the kind of offhand snarkiness that has always put people off Hillary Clinton. On the other hand Gabbard’s background is very concerning. Her family is closely associated with an authoritarian cult called the Science of Identity (https://sif.yoga/#welcome). Her wikipedia page studiously omits the fact that the “missionary school” she attended in the Phillipines was apparently the one members of this foundation are required to send their kids to (that or no school at all). The cult centers around a leader called Chris Butler who Gabbard acknowledges as her guru. While no one likes to pry, it is telling that not only does Gabbard studiously avoid talking about this, her web page is absolutely scrubbed clean of it. If she breaks with this cult, apparently, her family will renounce her, which is a tough thing for anyone.

Well, what you don’t see in that picture is that Hillary is actually slipping Vladimir several bags of Uranium One.
That changes everything, huh ?

Hillary was a Senator and Secretary of State, both positions in which she would have interacted with other heads of state as part of the jobs.
Tell me again what government position Jill Stein had that would have required her sitting at the table with Putin?
