Tulsi Gabbard Responds After Mitt Romney Calls Her a “Treasonous Liar”

When it comes to RINOs in the republican party, Mitt Romney is probably the most obvious of them all.

Romney has actively taken part in the recent propaganda efforts to hide the truth about US biolabs in Ukraine.

Tulsi Gabbard is almost the inverse of Mitt Romney.

Gabbard was essentially ousted from the democrat party after angering Hillary Clinton.

Gabbard recently said something which apparently made Mitt Romney very angry with her as well.

She said that she was worried that pathogens from one of the biolabs could get out and hurt people.

For that, Romney labeled her a “treasonous liar” who was “spreading Russian propaganda.”

Gabbard responded to Romney:

“Senator Romney, you have called me a ‘treasonous liar’ for stating the fact that “there are 25 US-funded biolabs in Ukraine which if breached would release and spread deadly pathogens to US and world.”

Here’s more on the war of words between Gabbard and Romney from Fox News:

She said, “There are 25-30 U.S.-funded biolabs in Ukraine. According to the U.S. government, these biolabs are conducting research on dangerous pathogens. Ukraine is in an active war zone with widespread bombing, artillery, and shelling. And these facilities, even in the best of circumstances could easily be compromised and release these deadly pathogens … Instead of trying to cover this up, the Biden-Harris administration needs to work with Russia, Ukraine, NATO, the UN to immediately implement a ceasefire for all military action in the vicinity of these labs until they’re secured and the pathogens destroyed.”

Mitt Romney responded to Gabbard’s video, saying, “Tulsi Gabbard is parroting false Russian propaganda. Her treasonous lies may well cost lives.”

Gabbard quipped back on Twitter, calling for Romney to resign from the Senate if he couldn’t back up his accusations against her.

Here’s Romney accusing Gabbard of pushing “Russian propaganda:”

Gabbard responded on Twitter as well:

Senator Romney, please provide evidence that what I said is untrue and treasonous. If you cannot, you should do the honorable thing: apologize and resign from the Senate.

Gabbard had more to say to Romney while speaking with Tucker Carlson:

Americans and people around the world have just suffered through a global pandemic quite possibly caused by pathogens accidentally released from a biological lab. Yet my political opponents are not concerned… pic.twitter.com/iLFyX1sDIE

Romney is of course in bad company here.

The liars on “the View” also made similar accusations against Gabbard:

Gabbard is not shying away from her detractors:

#1. State Department’s Victoria Nuland acknowledged such labs containing dangerous pathogens exist in Ukraine in her testimony to the US Senate (March 8, 2022): “Ukraine has biological research facilities which, in fact we are quite concerned that Russian troops may be seeking…

#2. Pentagon Fact sheet (March 11, 2022) has numerous statements directly & indirectly confirming the existence of such biolabs. https://t.co/63DIGQSm9c

#3. CBS Face the Nation (March 13, 2022) correspondent David Martin said a Pentagon official told him they’re concerned about the existence of such biolabs in Ukraine: “The concern is that the Russians will seize one of these biomedical research facilities that Ukraine has…

#4. In April 2020, in refuting Russia’s accusation that U.S. is using biolabs in Ukraine to develop biological weapons, U.S. Embassy in Ukraine acknowledged there are U.S. funded labs in Ukraine working with pathogens for vaccine & other peaceful purposes https://t.co/oIPROY43l6

#6. Furthermore, according to the DoD there are two biolabs in Ukraine that have been under Russian control for some time: “Russia illegally took possession of two Ukrainian-owned laboratories that BTRP upgraded in 2014 and continues to deny Ukrainian access to these facilities.”

So, Senator Romney, you have a choice: out of pride, continue to deny the truth or admit you are wrong, apologize, and resign.

Aloha.

And remember that without the truth, we can be neither safe nor free.
