      Tulsi Gabbard is being introduced to the wider public almost exclusively as an "apologist" for Assad. Other criticisms may be valid, but this central attack is baseless and epitomizes the worst kind of de-legitimizing tactics. My @NYDailyNews column:https://www.nydailynews.com/opinion/ny-oped-the-baseless-vilification-of-tulsi-gabbard-20190117-story.html …

      The most common word being associated with Tulsi right now in the media is "Assad," usually followed by "apologist," "defender," or in @clairecmc's case, "bestie." That's why it's necessary to focus on the insidiousness of this smear, notwithstanding other (reasonable) concerns

      I interviewed both Tulsi and Dennis Kucinich (who accompanied her on the Syria trip) shortly after they returned in early 2017, as the quotes in the above column demonstrate. And I will be writing more on the subject, because it's important. If you don't like it, tough.

          By taking that trip, Gabbard exposed herself to extreme political risk, knowing how cynically and maliciously it would inevitably be portrayed. Which is more that can be said for most politicians. Again: some lines of criticisms are perfectly reasonable. But this smear is odious.

          I’m Syrian American. Went to same medical school as Assad. I don’t agree with all of his policies but he has way more dignity than most politicians in the US. I’m not his friend, but I have known him well enough. The smearing against him is part of the regime-change BS.

          Other criticisms to do with her religious identification are not valid either.
