Christ. I did business in Russia for 15 years. I have made at least 50 trips there and speak Russian (very badly). MY children were born in Russia for God's sake. FACT: It is a third-world country striving to be second world. It is a strange and weird place. Nothing is as it seems. If she had to live there she would want out ASAP
Russia is playing the GOP like a fiddle right now. Crazy to see members of Congress entertain this biolab propaganda while knowing Russia has been offering to supply Iran with NUKES to kill Americans.
ODNI is being praised by Russian media today. The same Russian media that spreads lies that Trump killed Charlie Kirk and lies that Trump is a pedophile.
Disgraceful. Zero self awareness.
@JackPosobiec If I recall it was a BS rhetorical slight of hand. Mitt was offended, because Tulsi said there were "bio weapons labs." Sure there were "bio labs," but who said anything about "Bio WEAPONS labs." So, for that, she's a tool of Putin. That's the kind of games they play.
@JackPosobiec Those "bio labs" were helping Ukraine destroy dangerous Soviet bio weapons stockpiles, why do you think those in russian occupied territories haven't been used as propaganda Jack?
I hate how I'm being forced to agree with Laura Loomer on this, there were no bioweapons labs in Ukraine, which is the Russian conspiracy theory. Gabbard is purposely being vague and deceptive with releasing biolab information that doesn't clarify they were not bioweapons labs. Now all the maga loons are all over this like flies on dog doo. Congress should make her testify so she can discredit herself even more.
@Farmhandwithdog@mazemoore That's not at all what happened. But you lot don't seem capable of critical thinking on this. Too much cognitive bias. Gabbard is conflating and lying and repeating lies...
@OwenShroyer1776 Weakness is dangerous for a superpower. I agree with them that this is a disastrous end result. Iranian people I know are also pissed.
@BourneReacher@RLHeinrichs If you can read the signs on the buildings the Russians put out as labs you can tell they think we're retarded. One sign said this little shack was an electric maintenance center... Don't give a crap about your service if it's irrelevant to knowing the truth. And she just lied.
@RLHeinrichs The right doesn't distinguish between weaponized and non-weaponized bio labs,
just like the left which doesn't distinguish between legal and illegal immigration.
If you still think this is only Putin’s war and won’t affect you — watch this.
Head of the russian Ski Federation, 7-time Olympic champion:
“Drop a serious bomb on central London — and we’d be allowed back into international sports.”
This is mainstream thinking in russia.
As far as I can tell, Tulsi’s big “secret biolab” bombshell is recycled Kremlin propaganda. These labs were never secret.
The U.S. spent decades funding biosafety and disease-surveillance work abroad under Nunn-Lugar, with the facility lists posted publicly by the State Department and our own embassy in Kyiv.
Russia invented the “secret bioweapons” spin in 2022 to help justify invading Ukraine. Our own intelligence flagged it as disinformation. Now Tulsi is laundering that exact line, while conveniently forgetting the first Trump administration funded this same research.
Nothing was hidden and the only thing being manufactured here is the coverup.
Tulsi, don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
