Tulsi Gabbard warns that people like John Brennan and Adam Schiff are 'much more powerful, and therefore dangerous, than' Capitol rioters [video]

During her congressional career, Tulsi Gabbard made a name for herself by being a thorn in her fellow Democrats’ sides.

Now that she’s out of Congress … she’s only grown bolder:

The mob who stormed the capitol to try to stop Congress from carrying out its constitutional responsibilities were behaving like domestic enemies of our country. But let us be clear, the John Brennan's, Adam Schiffs and the oligarchs in Big Tech who are… pic.twitter.com/Q3VssCiz5l

You seem like the only non-conservative who is actually defending the Constitution which kinda seems like a pretty important document. I have respect for you and will continue to follow your career to see where it goes. Thank you for your service in the military as well

I’ve never voted for a Democrat for president but if you @TulsiGabbard are serious about running and keep this kind of stance you’ll have my vote.

We wouldn’t go that far. Gabbard’s far from perfect.

But it’s still refreshing to see a Democrat warn about some of the dangers of a too-powerful federal government.
