Her treasonous lies may well cost lives.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Mitt Romney (@MittRomney) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MittRomney\/status\/1503113473819041796?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 13, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>It\u2019s not clear the specific comments from Gabbard to which Romney was referring, but she did\u00a0claim in a video that she posted to social media over the weekend that there are \u201c25 to 30 U.S.-funded bio labs in Ukraine\u201d that are \u201cconducting research on dangerous pathogens.\u201d In the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TulsiGabbard\/status\/1502960938147729413\">video<\/a>, Gabbard called for a ceasefire until the labs could be secured and the pathogens inside the labs destroyed.<\/p>\n<p>Notable initial responses to Romney included:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Jon Gabriel<\/strong>, Ricochet: \u201cThe bar for \u2018treason\u2019 keeps dropping. Beginning to think the uniparty doesn\u2019t hate Putin \u2014 they want to emulate his speech codes.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Kurt Schlichter<\/strong>, attorney: \u201cThat\u2019s LTC Gabbard to you. I don\u2019t need to hear one damn word from anyone in your non-serving family about patriotism. And I don\u2019t even agree with her, but at least she and I served \u2013 unlike you and your entire family of free riders \u2013 and we\u2019ll both say whatever we want. Jerk.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ned Ryun<\/strong>, political commentator: \u201cDear Utah, upgrade your Senator please. He\u2019s a pathetic idiot.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>David Marcus<\/strong>, columnist: \u201cThis is incredibly stupid. In America we\u2019re allowed to have different opinions.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>David Reaboi<\/strong>, political commentator: \u201cThe extent to which politicians causally throw around accusations of \u2018treason\u2019 based on political rhetoric is the extent to which the regime is broken beyond repair. I\u2019d like @MittRomney \u2014a politician I (regrettably) maxed-out donating to in 2012\u2014to walk us through exactly how anything @TulsiGabbard says about Russia and Ukraine would constitute \u2018treason.\u2019 We are not at war with Russia; even if we were, does the USG control the speech of every American as it relates to the conflict? Will there be a fact sheet from which we cannot deviate? What constitutes \u2018treasonous\u2019 speech, aside from \u2018I support the enemy\u2019? If the so-called \u2018treasonous\u2019 speech is more subtle than that, where\u2019s the line exactly? These people are craven, low IQ hysterics. Their continued presence in public life makes people despise the whole regime, and with good reason.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Brendan Nyhan<\/strong>, professor: \u201cGabbard\u2019s misinformation is pernicious, but it is not treason. We should not throw around such terms or criminalize political speech.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Related:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
