Is Tulsi Gabbard being groomed by Republicans for a third-party run? Fox News and Mrs Clinton certainly want us to think so.

This post was updated on 26 October to include a recorded statement from Tulsi Gabbard.

This is a movement to take back the Democratic Party from corrupt warmongers. They’re doing everything they can to get me to run as a 3rd-party candidate so they can retain control of our Party. But I won’t. I’ll continue to fight to make our party & country of, by, & for the ppl pic.twitter.com/JyeoCmM4ta

First, Hillary tells former Obama advisor David Plouffe that she knows the Republicans have their eye on Tulsi Gabbard, and are grooming her for a third-party run.

Then, FOX reports that Tulsi is conspiring with Wall Street Fat Cats, for a third-party run.

Wolf later clarified that he invited her to the dinner (at Scaramucci’s restaurant) to talk about her foreign policy platform. He also offhandedly mentioned that Tulsi had previously spoken at a SALT Conference (run by Scaramucci). Is it possible that these were the Republicans Hillary was referring to? If so, Tulsi disappointed them when she made it perfectly clear that she would not be running on a third-party ticket.

Setting the record on @TulsiGabbard dinner
-set up weeks ago to discuss foreign policy.
– I have met around 15 candidates & never met her before
– she spoke @Scaramucci SALT conf
– she did make it clear she was running as a Democrat candidate & not considering a 3rd party run

Wolf actually isn’t a Republican, but a Democrat who worked for several years in the Obama administration. He currently serves on the board of directors for the Obama Foundation, on the advisory board for the Center for American Progress (whose employees are known for harassing the congresswoman), and as a Hillary mouthpiece on the Fox Network.

I don’t think it was a coincidence that Wolf picked Scaramucci’s restaurant, then mentioned Scaramucci’s SALT conference. Sounds like Hillary and Brock are up to dirty tricks.

By the way… her mentioned SALT Conference speech isn’t a secret. Video of the event has been posted on her YouTube Channel for a while.

This is the second time FOX has mislead people about Tulsi’s campaign activities. A previous event reported as “courting Wall Street money” was actually a speaking engagement with CORE Club in New York City.
