Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence, has declassified intelligence revealing that the U.S. government funded over 120 biolabs in more than 30 countries, including Ukraine. The disclosure highlights concerns over dangerous gain-of-function research and a history of government secrecy regarding these facilities and the pathogens they house.

Tulsi Gabbard drops receipts.
U.S. running over 120 biolabs in 30 countries,
or over 30 countries.
Outgoing Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard
on Friday declassified a set of internal intelligence slides
documenting a long-running U.S. program
that has funded a worldwide network of biolabs
that handles dangerous pathogens, including dozens in Ukraine.
And Falky knew all about all of this.
Today, I'm releasing never-before-seen intelligence
revealing new evidence of past U.S. government funding
from more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries, including Ukraine.
Support of President Trump's executive order to end federal funding
of dangerous gain-of-function research around the world
and increased transparency and accountability,
the ODNI will continue working with partners
across the administration to identify where these labs are,
what pathogens they contain,
and what research is being conducted.
After months of searching through intelligence community
holdings and files, today I'm releasing new evidence
of long-standing U.S. government funding
of more than 120 biolabs in over 30 countries.
Now, these biolabs include labs in places like
Ukraine, which could be at risk of compromise due
to the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war.
In fact, the intelligence community had previously warned
that a U.S.-funded biolab in Ukraine likely
housed dangerous pathogens
and remained vulnerable to longstanding threats of Russian attack,
seizure, or damage. Now, until now,
evidence regarding the full existence and funding of
these laboratories had been knowingly withheld from you,
the American people. Many of these
U.S. government-funded bio labs are currently
or have previously engaged in research using
hazardous and highly contagious pathogens,
and in some cases, included dangerous gain-of-function
research with very little visibility or oversight.
Now, President Trump clearly understands the
serious threat dangerous gain of function research poses
to the American people. And this is why he
took decisive action over a year ago.
On May 25th, 2025, he signed an executive order to end federal
funding of gain of function research around the world.
Here at ODNI, I issued new guidance to the
intelligence community directing increased collection
on these laboratories and facilities
overseas. And we're already seeing the results
of this increased collection. We're learning new
details, for example, on clinical trials that are underway
at these facilities and that are raising
significant ethical, financial,
and security concerns regarding the supposed public health
initiatives and U.S. national security.
Now, despite the obvious potential for catastrophic
global impact that research on dangerous pathogens in biolabs can have.
Politicians and so-called
health professionals like Dr. Fauci,
as well as entities within the Biden administration's
national security team, lied repeatedly
to the American people about the existence of U.S.-funded
and supported biolabs.
Not only did they lie, they threatened those who attempted to expose
the truth. So this release today breaks new ground,
as the information surrounding the existence,
history, locations,
and funding of these U.S.-funded biolabs has been intentionally
covered up by very powerful people
who falsely claimed that these biolabs didn't exist.
Now, they accuse anyone who says otherwise to be foreign assets
and traitors to America.
Now, ODNI and I will continue working closely with partners across
the U.S. government to identify exactly where
these labs are and what pathogens they contain
to end dangerous gain-of-function research that threatens the health
and well-being of the American people and people around the world.
Somebody's got to go to jail, Tulsi.
Whatever happened to good old-fashioned prosecution in jail?
Now, I went over some of the release,
and these are the 40 labs in the Ukraine alone.
The only good thing I found here was that there
was no red human research and red
and white human-to-animal research happening,
supposedly based on the key to this map.
Everything else is in play.
play. We're talking about up to BSL level 4 to some
of the pathogens they're working on. Anthrax,
Cholera, tuberculosis, swine fever,
Newcastle's disease, MERS,
SARS, Marburg, Ebola, all the
things we hear about in the news. Lassa, the plague,
rickettsia, etc., etc. Unbelievable. I want to
shout a big thank you out to Ms. Gabbard.
I'm guessing there are many more than 120. This is,
well, probably goes much deeper. Please give us a thumbs up.
Please share so that other people
know what the U.S. government is capable of.
