Talking about President Joe Biden, Carlson queried, “Who is running the government at this point? It’s obviously not Joe Biden. You think Hillary Clinton?”

Gabbard weighed in, saying, "It’s not a leap of imagination to know that that’s true”. Her comment fuelled additional discussion and raised eyebrows regarding the dynamics of power within the Biden administration.

Are Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton influencing the Biden-led government?

To clear her point, Gabbard recalled when Clinton's previous statement, when she said, “Oh yeah, I talk to the White House every day.”

“It is no shocker or surprise who the influences are behind the policies that are coming out of this White House that many people say is the most radical and woke White House that our country has ever seen," she added.
