I'm not making the charge. It's not my OP. I simply googled and provided you the Huffingtonpost article and suggested you watch the Hardball coverage, since you are so keen on knowing the facts. The other articles I posted were all about her trip to Syria and two meetings with Assad that she kept secret, as well as her meeting with Trump and relationship with Steve Bannon.

The contempt for the Arab press is, to put it kindly, provincial. You evidently don't know much about the relationship between Syria and Lebanon, or you wouldn't immediately dismiss their news coverage simply because they are Arabs.

You can legitimately claim that you haven't seen enough evidence to convince you. But you have been provided links to two articles on the recent allegation, one of which gives Gabbard's denial. The news isn't "fake." The incident is disputed. That doesn't mean it is fake. Just because the moron in the White House barks fake news whenever he sees something he doesn't like doesn't mean you should, unless you want people to believe you share his type of intellect.

Here's my question. Why do you care so much? It wouldn't occur to me that I needed to defend every person who endorsed Clinton. I don't expect them to be better than the rest of the human race. Millions of people voted for both candidates. Some of them are great people and some are assholes, like in any group of people. I find this idea that all Bernie supporters are forever connected in some Cylon hive for time immemorial to be bizarre. It doesn't resemble any approach to politics I have ever seen in my life.
