During Tulsi Gabbard's tenure as a congresswoman and presidential candidate, she placed much emphasis on her foreign policy views and regarded them as inseparable from her domestic policy views. She criticizes what she terms the "neoliberal/neoconservative war machine", which pushes for US involvement in "wasteful foreign wars". She has said that the money spent on war should be redirected to serve health care, infrastructure, and other domestic priorities. Nevertheless, she describes herself as both a hawk and a dove: "When it comes to the war against terrorists, I'm a hawk", but "when it comes to counterproductive wars of regime change, I'm a dove".[1][2][3][4][5][6]
As a candidate in the 2020 Democratic presidential primary, Gabbard's political positions were broadly similar to those of contenders on health care, climate, education, infrastructure, and criminal justice reform, but she had distinguishable positions on issues ranging from Democratic Party internal politics to foreign affairs.
After ending her presidential campaign, Gabbard has since taken more conservative positions on culture war and social issues, including abortion and transgender rights.[7][8][9][10][11][12] Gabbard endorsed the controversial Florida House Bill 1557, referred to by critics as the "Don't Say Gay" bill,[13] and in 2022, she was a featured speaker at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC).[14] She has been a frequent critic of the Biden administration.[11][12][15][16][17] Later in 2022, she announced that she had quit the Democratic Party without joining any other party. In her announcement she not only echoed conservative criticisms of the Democratic Party but also stated that she feared that the Democrats would start a nuclear war.[12]
