“Hillary Clinton used a similar tactic against me when I ran for president in 2020, accusing me of being ‘groomed by the Russians’.”
I guess no need to be groomed by Russians when you've already been groomed by fanatical Christian Extremists so your values basically align with the current Russian regime's:

Opposition to LGBT rightsedit
Gabbard became an anti-homosexual activist before the same-sex marriage debate took hold in Hawaii.[3] Between 1991 and 1996, Gabbard founded the organizations Stop Promoting Homosexuality Hawaii (renamed Stop Promoting Homosexuality International), Stop Promoting Homosexuality America, and the Alliance for Traditional Marriage and Values.[10] Gabbard became well-known for his advocacy for Hawaii Constitutional Amendment 2 (1998). This amendment, approved by voters 69.2%–28.6%,[11] gave the state legislature "the power to reserve marriage to opposite-sex couples" under the federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), signed by Bill Clinton in 1996.[12][3][13]
Just greedy short sighted fools who are willing to abase themselves to scum, or they are sociopathic monsters who don't care about anything but whatever they want.
Mercenaries fight for money, these kidnappings and enslavements, along with the Russian conscription process in particular, are more along the lines of a slave army, since it's absolutely not voluntary for many of those people.
Wagner are the mercenaries they use:

Senior Russian soldiers basically rape and murder new conscripts as a training method:
This should have been a no brainer once these idiots started calling the Baltimore Mayor the "DEI mayor".
These racist, misogynistic, homophobic, and anti-Semitic/islamophobic assholes are always looking for a new dog whistle to use or a new popular thing to corrupt, or even seemingly innocent things to corrupt.
Fuck Nazis and all of their allies and enablers.
You should see how many American politicians are just as corrupt for less money, I was surprised when I saw Devin Nunes was only making $15K from one of the bribery schemes that was supporting him while he was in Congress. I guess it all comes down to knowing your worth to the scumbags you work for. 🤷♂️
I guess you haven't seen all of the news reports and government outcry over Russia basically luring these guys to Russia then kidnapping Indian and Nepalese dudes and forcing them to fight, same with North Koreans, a whole bunch of South Americans, and several other Americans.

The guy is literally a wannabe Stalinist Communist from Austin freaking Texas, he's been there since 2014 fighting and propagandizing alongside the Russians this whole time, he's apparently been an avowed socialist since he was 16, yet you're trying to act like the CIA had anything to do with this fucking idiot.
He was arrested over selling pot in the 90's and started hating America and was too brainwashed, desperate, or mentally inept to realize that Russia was never really a communist country, especially not under Putin, and kept working with the Russians despite all the bad shit they do.
Rest in piss, fucking idiot.
129 pages!?! Wtf...
I just wrote training documentation on an IT technology and it wasn't even that long.
It's wild to me how these "God fearing Christians" basically want to put poor people into concentration camps, because that's just like Jesus would do. /s
Maybe if we had more public housing, better healthcare, that includes mental and dental, and easier and cheaper access to higher education and more affordable housing while being educated, it's not rocket science, sure we'll have people who choose the nomadic life but most of these homeless people have been pushed out of society by debt or by their health issues and the addictions that come from those health issues and poverty.
