agencies at face value." If by face value you mean overwhelming evidence.

And she apparently hasn't changed her personal views on abortion or homosexuality.

However, in a 2016 interview with the publication Ozy, Gabbard suggested that her personal beliefs on homosexuality actually haven’t changed:

It was, she says, the days in the Middle East that taught her the dangers of a theocratic government “imposing its will” on the people. (She tells me that, no, her personal views haven’t changed, but she doesn’t figure it’s her job to do as the Iraqis did and force her own beliefs on others.)

Her pro-Assad stance is there for all to see. Try google.

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