| Tulsi Gabbard |
Americans are shocked: the new director of the US National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, announced from the rostrum of the Senate that for many years it was considered a lie by Russian propaganda. For example, corruption in the White House, falsification of evidence for the invasion of Iraq, secret biological laboratories in Ukraine and other parts of the world. Even the terrorists in Syria, whom the Russian Foreign Ministry is now trying to turn into "respected partners," she called extremists and a branch of Al-Qaeda (banned in Russia and recognized as terrorist). When Senator Michael Bennet accused Gabbart of saying that her "statements correspond to Russian propaganda," she replied, "I don't pay attention to Russian propaganda. My goal is to tell the truth, whether you like it or not."
At a Senate hearing, Tulsi Gabbard said that Syria is now controlled by an al-Qaeda affiliate (banned in Russia and recognized as a terrorist) led by jihadist Abu Mohammed al-Julani. As Trump's colleague emphasized, he "danced in the streets" after the September 11 terrorist attack and was responsible for the murder of US Army soldiers.
Gabbard stressed that the Assad regime had "terribly" violated human rights, but the former Syrian president was the "best chance" to prevent terrorists from seizing power.
Earlier, Tulsi Gabbard said that the United States was to blame for the beginning of its war because it had been "provoking" Russia for many years, and Washington's ruling elite "wants to kill as many Russians as possible with the hands of Ukrainians."
At the same time, in the Senate, she called the situation around Russia a "difficult environment" and our country a "strategic competitor.":
"I want to be sure that Russia will in no way have a place in your mind, in your heart, or in any policy recommendations that you may or may not make," Republican Senator Jerry Moran said during the hearing.
"My only obligation and responsibility is for our own nation, our own security, and the interests of the American people," she said.
Gabbard also stated that there are US-funded biolabs in Ukraine.:
"There are more than 25 U.S.-funded biolabs in Ukraine that, if hacked, can release and spread deadly pathogens in the United States and around the world. We must take action right now to prevent a catastrophe. USA/Russia/Ukraine/NATO/UN/EU must immediately impose a ceasefire around these laboratories until they are brought under control and pathogens are eliminated."
In addition to Russia and Ukraine, Tulsi Gabbard shocked Americans by accusing 51 intelligence officials of corruption and criticized Biden and the entire Democratic Party for using intelligence services as weapons.
Biden campaign adviser Tony Blinken encouraged the writing of "letter 51 by a former senior intelligence official," which dismissed Hunter Biden's laptop as disinformation specifically designed to help Biden win the election, Gabbard said.
She noted that for too long, erroneous, insufficient or distorted intelligence information has led to costly failures and undermined national security. The most obvious example is the invasion of Iraq, based on a complete fiction. At the same time, Gabbard herself is a veteran of combat operations in Iraq.
Gabbard served in the Army Reserve for more than two decades and was deployed to several war zones. She also served for eight years on the House Committees on Foreign Affairs and the Armed Forces.
Tulsi Gabbard used to be a member of the Democratic Party, but left it in October 2022 due to a number of disagreements on key issues, in particular, on support for Ukraine. She became a member of the Republican Party a month before the last US presidential election.
Democratic Party senators accused Gabbard of being a "puppet" of Trump or Putin. In her opening speech, she retorted that she was being criticized for refusing to be a "puppet" of the Democrats.
