Democratic Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard has broken free of the corporate medias narrative by accusing the United States of funding and arming terror groups al-Qaeda and ISIS.
If you or I gave money, weapons or support to al-Qaeda or ISIS, we would be thrown in jail, Gabbard tweeted on Saturday.
Most importantly, however, is her introduction of the Stop Arming Terrorists Act, which she presented last Thursday. In her presentation of the bill, Gabbard cited prominent publications such as the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal to show that the rebels the U.S. is supporting in Syria are aligned with al-Nusra (which is essentially al-Qaeda in Syria).
She is co-sponsoring the bill with Rep. Thomas Massie, who says the bill would prohibit the U.S. government from using American taxpayer dollars to provide funding, weapons, training, and intelligence support to terrorist groups like al-Qaeda and ISIS, or to countries who are providing direct or indirect support to those same groups.
These concerns are not conjectures they can be verified by none other than suspected war criminal Tony Blair. A think tank founded by the former U.K. Prime Minister released a report in 2015 that concluded it was ultimately pointless to make a distinction between the various rebel groups on the ground since the majority of these groups share ISISs core belief system (and would impose Sharia law if they came into power).

See, Trump exudes confidence and brings out the best in others; maybe it's catching !
Right... jail or WORSE..an IRS target, etc.
Yes, it’s a dirty job reminding folks of the skullduggery, but someone’s got to do it.
LOL
Thanks for adding or worse, the IRS to keep whistle blowers in line.
Go Tulsi Go!
(I hope this isn’t just a weird way of lobbying for the VA post.)
So 0bama, Hillary, McCain, and Graham colluded, conspired to create an entity that kills Americans (among others), and seeks our destruction.
Isn’t that treason?
5.56mm
We’ve been a country for 230 years and we actually need congress to write a bill for us to stop arming an enemy!?
A person of the people. Yep. good for her.
“I dont like very many democrats, but I think I like her.”
To be frank, she’s more of a republican than Graham or McCain.
Tulsi Gabbard is an American politician and member of the Democratic Party who has been the United States Representative for Hawaii's 2nd congressional district since 2013.
Hell just froze over and pigs are flying.
You forgot Rubio.
She is right! She is solid on this issue. Need to get more like her in both parties. And so NOT GUILTY too!
Backwards, her first name is iSlut...
Just noticing things here.
However, this time around, the uni-party enemies of free people is in actual peril from a Trump administration. If the levels of corruption and treason are ever exposed for all to see, it may shock the entire nation for perhaps many generations to come.
This is what McCain is worried about...that he won’t get his cut of arms sales.
I can’t disagree there for sure.
WOW! This from a Hawaiian democrat.
