Christine Elizabeth "Tina" Flint Smith (born March 4, 1958) is a businesswoman and the far-left junior senator from Minnesota, in contrast to her less radical colleague Amy Klobuchar.
Abortion lobby
Called the "abortion senator" by pro-lifers in Minnesota, Smith has worked in Planned Parenthood as an executive[1] and has since been proud of her "work" in murdering unborn children.[2]
U.S. Senate
Smith was appointed by Minnesota governor Mark Dayton to replace the disgraced now-former senator Al Franken.[3]
Political views
A left-wing progressive, Smith is pro-abortion, opposes the U.S. alliance with Israel, and thinks that taxing rich people will fix problems.[4] In addition, she supports totalitarian policies from gun control to keeping the Obamacare mandate. Smith's foreign policy is arguably even worse, given her support for the Iran nuclear deal.
