Democratic presidential hopeful Tulsi Gabbard continued to ream into Hillary Clinton on Tuesday night, releasing another campaign video where she slams the former Secretary of State’s foreign policy as a 'disaster' and tells her to 'step down from your throne'.
The one minute clip, entitled 'Hillary, Acknowledge the Damage You’ve Caused', sees the Hawaii Congresswoman blames Clinton for the deaths of servicemen overseas.
'Hillary, your foreign policy was a disaster for our country and the world,' the 38-year-old military combat veteran who served in the Iraq War said.
'It’s resulted in the deaths and injuries of so many of my brothers and sisters in uniform. It’s devastated entire countries, millions of lives lost, refugee crises, our enemy al-Qaeda/ISIS strengthened,' she added.

Gabbard's attacks come after Clinton implied Gabbard was being used by Russia while speaking on a podcast with former Barack Obama aide David Plouffe on Friday
She cast blame on Clinton for the increased presence of Iranian and Russian influence and Turkey’s invasion of Syria.
She then demanded Clinton apologize for the 'damage' she caused and accused her of trying to continue her foreign policy through the next Democratic nominee.
'It is long past time for you to step down from your throne so the Democratic Party can lead with a new foreign policy which will actually be in the interests of and benefit the American people and the world,' Gabbard added.
It was her latest attack on Clinton after the former first lady alluded that Gabbard was Russia's puppet, being groomed as an asset for them in the upcoming 2020 election.
Tulsi Gabbard claimed Hillary Clinton is attacking her because she endorsed Bernie Sanders in the 2016 presidential election. She shared this video on Sunday, slamming Clinton
Gabbard endorsed Bernie Sanders in the 2016 presidential race - the two are seen here campaigning together in 2016
On Friday Clinton implied Gabbard’s ties to Russia while speaking on a podcast with former Barack Obama aide David Plouffe.
'I’m not making any predictions, but I think they’ve got their eye on somebody who is currently in the Democratic primary and are grooming her to be the third-party candidate. She’s the favorite of the Russians,' she said, not naming Gabbard directly.
On Sunday Gabbard released a furious campaign video in which she suggested that Clinton has been after her since 2016, when she left her position in the Democratic National Committee and endorsed Sen. Bernie Sanders for president.
In that clip she said she would not be bullied by Clinton and 'her gang of rich, powerful elite.'

'If they can falsely portray me as a traitor, then they can do it to anyone - and in fact, that's exactly the message they want to get across to you,' Gabbard said.
'If you stand up to Hillary and the party power brokers - if you stand up to the rich and powerful elite and the war machine, they will destroy you and discredit your message. But, here is the truth: They will not intimidate us. They will not silence us.'
On Monday Gabbard said she’s open to confronting Clinton face to face.
Clinton's spokesperson Nick Merrill downplayed the beef between the two telling Fox News, 'The short of it is that she’s on a book tour and is feeling unconstrained about speaking her mind. It’s easy to over-ascribe a strategy about every word she utters, but it’s as simple as that. She’s out there telling the truth.'
Sen. Bernie Sanders, Sen. Cory Booker, former Texas Rep. Beto O'Rourke, entrepreneur Andrew Yang and spiritual author Marianne Williamson all condemned Clinton's suggestion that Gabbard was a Russian pawn.
