I find it very curious that when Tucker Carlson asked Tulsi Gabbard if she was a “Russian sleeper cell,” she avoided answering the question
In my post for Crooks and Liars yesterday, I went through the controversy of Hillary Clinton suggesting that Gabbard is being groomed by Russia to run as a third party candidate and Gabbard’s Twitter clapback.
Since then, Gabbard has unequivocally denied that she will run as a third-party candidate. But when asked about being a Russian sleeper cell last night, she deflected and dodged and changed the subject to Hillary Clinton. I'm not saying I think Gabbard's a sleeper cell but her non-answer to a question I'd think would engender a straightforward and clear "no," seemed fishy to me.
Read my full post about how Gabbard’s disturbing evasiveness got my Spidey senses tingling on Crooks and Liars.

I bring this up because recently I went from Florida to Jersey and back again for a wedding/vacation. In the Carolinas, along I-95, there were billboards for Tulsi Gabbord for President. I told my husband I thought it was strange that of all people, there’d be billboards for her when she still is hardly registering in the polls and none for Biden, Sanders, Warren, etc.
Maybe Ellen is on to something along with Clinton. The forces of fascism that seem to concentrate in corporations, the South and the Midwest, the wealthy, the Evilgelicals, may, see her as a spoiler for the Dems and the salvation for Trump or worse, Pence, and the Republican party.
