Summary
Jamie and I embark on a Tulsi Gabbard deep dive! We've struggled trying to figure out what her deal is, and then the Hillary Clinton story blew up, so we figured it would be a great time to do a deep dive and try to answer the question of.... WTF. Is she an asset for Russia? Is she a secret Republican? Is she a progressive? Find out what we dug up!
Here are some key sources. I read a lot for this but many sources were redundant. The main two would be Jacobin and Daily Kos.

| 1:01.4 | notes are also titled W-T-A. I just, this whole, this whole thing is so bonkers to me. |
| 1:10.0 | It really is. I had said to you earlier in the week or I don't remember when it came up that I just I would love because I'm so confused about Tullsey to begin with and this news erupted over the Hillary Clinton interview on David Plough's podcast and it was just like a good time to be like let's just do a deep dive |
| 1:26.8 | I figured okay I'll finally get to the bottom of this maybe I'll know what's going on what makes her do certain things and it's very confusing there's a |
| 1:36.5 | there's a lot of weird stuff about Tullsey and I you and I may totally disagree on this, but like I am actually kind of confused as to whether or not maybe she is somewhat. |
