In a now-deleted tweet, Yang wrote, “Where’s Tulsi?”

He followed up the message with an explanation, writing, “Just posted a tweet about a DNC video when I was unaware of the criterion used. That’s why we have teams around us – to let us know these kinds of things. Happy Holidays!”
DNC officials, when contacted by The Hill, did not specify what the requirements were for appearing in the video.
Gabbard failed to qualify for December’s Democratic debate, and Yang himself lies on the verge of not qualifying for the Democratic debate in January following the DNC’s decision to raise the requirements for participation.
