Gail's New Videos, Vote for Tulsi Gabbard/Bernie Sanders, Tucker Carlson & Russia Today

I have added RSS feeds for three news sources (My YouTube channel & Save America, Vote for Tulsi Gabbard & Russia Today) that will report on news you can’t get in American mainstream news or that offer a perspective often missing from mainstream news. I do not completely agree with Russia Today or Save America, Vote for Tulsi Gabbard on everything, but most of what’s at mainstream news is group think and I like to think for myself. Russia Today LIVE ON AIR. Vladimir Putin is on my marriage list and nobody in the U.S. reports truthfully about Vladimir or Russia so I like to hear what Russia Today has to say.
