Tulsi Gabbard accused of weaponising Russian intelligence in fake U.S. intelligence slideshow
A declassified slideshow released by Tulsi Gabbard on Saturday falsely presented Russian intelligence documents as authentic American intelligence products, according to forensic analysis published on Sunday. The presentation, which Gabbard promoted as a declassified U.S. assessment of biological laboratories in Ukraine, reused graphics from Russian government materials first published in 2022 and presented to the UN Security Council, including a slide identical to a Russian report on a U.S. contractor cited by Moscow. Gabbard’s team added a U.S. Office of the Director of National Intelligence logo to the slides, which contain an AI-generated map with errors and recycled Russian propaganda rather than verified U.S. intelligence.
Forensic comparison by open-source investigators shows that Slide 2’s map and Slide 4’s graphic match Russian Ministry of Defence documents from 2022, including materials Russia tabled at the UN in New York. The reused graphic concerns a 2021 shipment to a Ukrainian laboratory operated by Black & Veatch, a U.S. engineering firm, which Russia had previously publicised in disinformation campaigns alleging covert biological weapons development. Gabbard’s office did not respond to requests for comment.
The episode escalates concerns about the weaponisation of disinformation against U.S.–Ukraine cooperation on biological safety. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy separately disclosed on Sunday that Ukrainian intelligence had obtained reports destined for President Vladimir Putin showing declining support for the Russian leader and growing protest sentiment inside Russia. The Ukrainian presidency released photographs of the reports, which it said were acquired by Ukrainian security services and shared to counter Kremlin narratives.
Romanian scholar Iulian Chifu, a former presidential adviser, told the Kyiv Post on Sunday that Russian propaganda has evolved into “cognitive informational warfare,” exploiting social divisions to spread confusion and weaken trust in democratic institutions across Europe. Chifu’s assessment accompanies the publication of his new book on the subject.
The revelations come amid intensified fighting near Kostjantyniwka in eastern Ukraine, where Russian forces claim to have made advances, and as Russian opposition figures gathered in Berlin to debate strategies to counter Kremlin influence.
