Tulsi Gabbard and her staff promulgated Russian intelligence products as American work, in violation of the Espionage Act.

Tulsi Gabbard released a fake declassified slideshow w/ lies about . Putin's girlfriend actually reused graphics from russian intelligence documents, added a U.S. ODNI logo, and presented them as American intelligence products.

Slide elements match russian government documents published in 2022, including materials russia presented to the UN Security Council.

Tulsi's KGB slideshow includes:

Slide 2 An AI‑generated map with errors

Slide 4 A graphic identical to one in a russian report re: Material from a US contractor (Black & Veatch) that Russia previously publicized

Gabbard used recycled russian propaganda rather than authentic U.S. intelligence.

Gabbard’s weaponized russian propaganda undermines U.S.–Ukraine biological safety programs.

Gabbard’s deception harms the biological safety work being done to prevent dangerous uses of Soviet era pathogens.

Slide 2 contains an AI generated map of Ukraine which is clearly not an IC product, and contains spelling & geographical errors Slide 4 contains the internal work product of an American corp. (Black and Veatch) that worked w/ the Defense Threat Reduction Agency in Ukraine. The Russian regime claims to have captured these documents during their invasion of Ukraine. Russian then widely publicized these products in reports in 2022 Gabbard’s political staff (not IC analysts) recycled published propaganda of the Russian KGB/FSB in an attempt to spread false narratives while falsely claiming the slideshow she released this week is an original work product of US intel agency Page 83 of the following document presented by the Russians to the #UN Security Council shows the exact figure that Gabbard recycled in slide 4 of her release this week Gabbard’s deception harms the biological safety work being done to prevent dangerous uses of Soviet era pathogens (which has been publicly disclosed since 2005 as the Nunn-Lugar Cooperative Threat Reduction framework) with bioweapons production so that Russia has another manufactured excuse to continue its prolonged war with Ukraine Let’s be clear: there is no evidence that Ukraine in its longstanding cooperative program with the US has engaged in Gain of Function or biological weapons research But what is clear is Gabbard promulgated KGB/FSB intelligence products as American work, in violation of the Espionage Act #europeanunion #eu

                Psychology is an administrative vocabulary masquerading as a natural science, and the most damning evidence is that the discipline best equipped to rescue it is quietly declining to speak its language. Thoughts?

                  Modern information-based anxiety comes from following and believing in the current and historical events as advertised by those declaring said events. When you believe in, repeat, and opine on these event narratives, you compound that anxiety and excite it in others, bringing them into bondage to the same stories and fantasies.

                  Most events advertised by media and government are fiction. What you see on the Internet and TV is not real. What experts, foundations, agencies, governments, and nonprofits say is never the truth. None of it is real. It is all agitprop. It is all agenda-driven manipulation. None of it has ever been real. There is always an angle or agenda behind the way the information is presented. Those images and sounds and slogans and speeches are NOT reality. It is a false reality offered for you to buy into.

                  Reality is between you and your neighbor. How you treat your neighbor ... whether or not you treat your neighbor as equal in dignity and rights ... or whether or not you use your fears of government stories as an excuse to hate and abuse your neighbor ... which is why they give you their stories in the first place. By stoking division they can rule you, fleece you, control you, and profit from you.

                  In the Game of Thrones the Tyrion character was used to tell us who rules:

                  "What unites people? Armies? Gold? Flags? No. It’s stories. There's nothing in the world more powerful than a good story. Nothing can stop it. No enemy can defeat it. And who has a better story than Bran the Broken? The boy who fell from a high tower and lived… He's our memory. The keeper of all our stories. The wars, weddings, births, massacres, famines, our triumphs, our defeats, our past. Who better to lead us into the future?"

                  When you believe someone's stories, that person rules over you. The person who crafts the stories that you take for reality has control of your mind and your life. Whoever crafts your reality is your master. They keep ramping up the anxiety to stunt critical thinking and invoke emotional responses and emotional investment in narratives crafted to steer people into doing their bidding.

                    Uncageable

                    From the light of freedom to a concrete tomb,
                    The fall was great and swift.
                    My soul cried out in a mighty boom,
                    How could it come to this?

                    Clamped down, trapped stuck,
                    Paralyzed in a tiny cage.
                    Had fate left me not a drop of luck?
                    Was there reason for this rage?

                    Told to lay down and die,
                    Something deep inside me stirred.
                    I can’t be caged I have to fly!
                    Not yet am I interred.

                    They can take my body, tie me down,
                    It matters not a bit.
                    My spirit still runs wild and free,
                    So in freedom here I sit.
