The remark was also conveniently timed after Gabbard just dropped the explosive news last week that investigators have uncovered evidence that America’s elections have been compromised by hacked voting machines.
While discussing Kent’s appointment with MSNBC host Ayman Mohyeldin, Moodie-Mills falsely claimed that “we learned [Gabbard] was a Russian agent.”
