Gabbard: U.S. "not that different" from Russia when it comes to censorship

“Tulsi, it is striking when you see Putin propaganda and you line it up against Biden propaganda,” he said. “Do you think that we’re at risk of kind of moving in that direction right now?”

“We are moving in that direction, Jesse,” she replied. “They’re afraid of the truth.”

She stated the arguments of the “power elite… are so weak that they know they will not withstand the light of the truth.” Gabbard did not elaborate on what “the truth” is in this instance, and it was not entirely clear which particular issue she was even speaking about, if any.

“And this is what’s so dangerous about the place that we’re in right now as a country, where this idea, this principle, this foundation of freedom of speech, freedom of expression is directly under threat and under attack,” she continued. “And you’re right. It’s not so different. What’s happening here is not that different from what we’re seeing happening in Russia, where you’ve got state TV and controlled messaging across the board. This is where we’re at.”
