Surprised Tulsi Gabbard hasn't thrown her name in the ring with all of the attention HI

is getting with the wildfires. I know she left the democratic party to become independent so that might be why we don't hear much from her.

Apparently she did make an appearance on Fox and Friends recently and had the following to say

quote:

"There's a lack of trust because of the failure to communicate, the failure to provide services. The people in these surrounding communities have been faced with a situation where they had no power. They were told they couldn't drink the water out of the faucet. Roadblocks were being put in place. So they had to turn to each other as a community to get food and to get the kind of immediate, basic support they needed. They didn't see anybody from any level of the government for over a week after this catastrophe happened," Gabbard said.

"There is a huge deficit in trust. That trust needs to be rebuilt. The leaders, all the way from President Joe Biden down to the local level, need to be present, need to be there, and then need to act on what they're hearing from their communities," she continued.
