Tulsi Gabbard Alleges Clinton Used Heavy Tranquilizers During 2016 Election

Tulsi Gabbard, serving as President Donald Trump's director of National Intelligence, has publicly accused Hillary Clinton of using heavy tranquilizers and suffering from psycho-emotional problems during the 2016 presidential campaign. Gabbard cited a declassified September 2020 House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence report, alleging that Russian President Vladimir Putin was aware of Clinton's condition and withheld compromising material to release after the election. The report also claims Clinton had severe health issues, including type 2 diabetes and ischemic heart disease, and that government aides held secret meetings offering increased State Department funding to religious leaders for political support. Gabbard further alleges that the intelligence community intentionally suppressed information about Putin's plans and that high-level DNC emails detailed Clinton's emotional instability and medication regimen. She connects these revelations to a broader claim that former President Barack Obama orchestrated a conspiracy to fabricate the Russia interference narrative to undermine Trump's presidency. These statements have drawn mixed reactions, with some social media critics questioning the relevance and veracity of Gabbard's claims.
