Rep. Tulsi Gabbard 'skeptical' that Assad regime behind gas attack

https://www.cnn.com/2017/04/07/politics/tulsi-gabbard-assad-chemical-weapons-blitzer-cnntv/index.html

The lawsuit was one more example of how Gabbard, 38, is not like other Democratic presidential candidates: She's a proud veteran, but one who harshly attacks U.S. military operations. She joined Republicans in criticizing President Barack Obama for not using the term "Islamic" in condemning terrorism. She has downplayed Robert Mueller's special counsel report into Russian interference in the 2016 election and has resisted calls to impeach President Donald Trump.

I don't think it's too big a deal that she got over 100,000 donors, though.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
