This is typical of the insanity that one hears when war is in the air. Mitt Romney and the geniuses at The View shout “Treason!” when Tulsi Gabbard merely expresses concern about the release of pathogens from U.S. affiliated Ukrainian biolabs. I know some people who will be attempted to accuse me of treason for linking to Tucker Carlson’s show, but he’s right about this issue.
Why aren’t these accusers also going after Victoria Nuland, Biden’s Under-Secretary of State, who was also concerned about wartime pathogen release from Ukrainian biolabs? The followup to Nuland’s admission was darkly comical: Marco Rubio, possibly stunned by Nuland’s admission, pushes Nuland to give assurances (based on nothing at all) that if pathogens were released, that it would be solely the fault of Russians.

For many people, including many in the news business, civil liberties are quaint and antiquated. No longer the life-blood of the American experiment. Glenn Greenwald gives many examples.

And here how the issue is being reported, as though a high ranking government official under Biden did not say what she clearly said:
I’m agnostic about the underlying issue. If there are US-backed bio labs in Ukraine, then a search of Fauci’s records will provide the smoking gun. That can’t happen until someone can subpoena them, which requires removing Pelosi and Blinken. We are at least three years away from that.
