Accused Russian Agent Gave to One Politician: Tulsi Gabbard

[RandySF]

Tulsi Gabbard, a former Democratic congresswoman from Hawaii and 2020 presidential dark horse candidate, has long perplexed U.S. officials and observers with her seemingly inexplicable pro-Russian positions. And a new development this week is sure to reinforce the half-jokes that Gabbard is a “Russian asset”; as it turns out, her campaign took money from one.

That agent—dual Russian-American national Elena Branson, also known as Elena Chernykh—stands accused of illegally pushing pro-Russia policies in the United States for nearly a decade, at the direction of top Kremlin officials, without registering under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), according to a criminal complaint federal prosecutors filed this week in the Southern District of New York.

2. According to her and types like her, all Democrats are corrupt because of campaign contributions.

They "take" money, it goes right into their pockets, being a public servant is apparently a huge gravy train. Even a small amount of money is corrupting. All bullshit. Why did so many "progressives" like her so much?

Seems like Hillary's assessment is getting more accurate by the day. . .
