On Principles & Values: Hillary Clinton & military-industrial complex smearing me

Gabbard released a video blasting Hillary Clinton, claiming that Clinton and the "war machine" are trying to "destroy" and "discredit" her. Gabbard also told an NBC reporter the comments were part of a "smear campaign" "coming from people like Hillary Clinton and her proxies, the foreign policy establishment, the military-industrial complex, who obviously feel threatened by my message and by my campaign because they know that they can't control me."
