DNI Launches Investigation into US-Funded Foreign Biolabs

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has launched a sweeping investigation into more than 120 foreign biological laboratories tied to U.S. taxpayer funding, reigniting explosive questions surrounding gain-of-function research, secretive overseas biolab programs, and what critics say was a years-long cover-up by the Biden administration and Dr. Anthony Fauci.

The investigation spans facilities across more than 30 countries, including over 40 labs in Ukraine, according to officials within the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI).

Gabbard said the administration is now moving aggressively to uncover exactly what research has been conducted inside the labs, what pathogens are being stored, and how deeply U.S. agencies were involved.

Gabbard Targets Dangerous Gain-of-Function Research

Speaking to the New York Post, Gabbard said the review aims to expose and halt dangerous gain-of-function experimentation that many Americans believe played a role in the COVID-19 catastrophe.

“We are going to identify where these labs are, what pathogens they contain, and what ‘research’ is being conducted to end dangerous gain-of-function research that threatens the health and well-being of the American people and the world,” Gabbard said.

“The COVID-19 pandemic revealed the catastrophic global impact research on dangerous pathogens in biolabs can have,” she continued.

“Yet despite these obvious dangers, politicians, so-called health professionals, like Dr. Fauci, and entities within the Biden administration’s national security team lied to the American people about the existence of these US-funded and supported biolabs and threatened those who attempted to expose the truth.”

The renewed scrutiny comes after former National Institutes of Health official Lawrence Tabak admitted before Congress in 2024 that U.S. taxpayer dollars funded gain-of-function research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China.

That research reportedly increased viral infectivity by as much as 10,000 times.

Ukraine Biolabs Back Under the Spotlight

The investigation is also reviving intense debate surrounding U.S.-funded biological laboratories in Ukraine.

For years, corporate media outlets and Biden administration officials dismissed concerns about the facilities as “disinformation,” despite repeated acknowledgments from government officials that biological research programs existed in the country.

In 2022, then-Undersecretary of State Victoria Nuland admitted during Senate testimony that Ukraine possessed “biological research facilities” and expressed concern that Russian forces could seize control of materials housed there.

At the same time, the Biden administration insisted the United States did not “own or operate” the labs, carefully avoiding the separate question of whether U.S. taxpayer money funded them through federal agencies, grants, contractors, and subawardees.

ODNI officials now say many of the laboratories under review received Pentagon funding through Cold War-era programs originally designed to secure biological and chemical threats after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Critics argue that oversight of those programs became dangerously opaque over time, creating a sprawling international network of laboratories operating with limited public transparency.

Officials also warned that clinical trials and pathogen research conducted at some overseas sites are raising “significant ethical, financial, and security concerns.”

Growing Fears Over Lab Safety and Global Secrecy

The investigation arrives as public distrust surrounding gain-of-function research continues to grow following the pandemic.

Supporters of the research argue that manipulating pathogens can help scientists prepare vaccines and treatments for future outbreaks.

But critics warn the experiments create massive biosafety risks if altered viruses escape containment, intentionally or accidentally.

The Trump administration has increasingly embraced the position that federal agencies concealed critical information from the public regarding overseas biolab funding and high-risk pathogen research.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth blasted the Biden administration over what he described as a deliberate effort to hide the scale of U.S.-funded foreign laboratory activity.

“The prior administration bankrolled dangerous Gain-of-Function research and foreign biolabs with American tax dollars, then deliberately hid it from the American people,” Hegseth said.

“The declassification of this discovery shows how little oversight this work had.”

“Under President Trump’s leadership, DNI Tulsi Gabbard and the entire Cabinet are righting these historic wrongs and delivering justice for our warfighters and the ones they protect,” he added.

“The era of lies and betrayal is over.”

Questions Intensify Amid Mysterious Scientist Deaths

The investigation also comes amid growing public attention surrounding a string of recent deaths involving American scientists connected to sensitive aerospace, nuclear, and advanced technology fields.

In recent months, several high-profile researchers and technical specialists linked to defense, energy, and space sectors have reportedly died under unusual or sudden circumstances, fueling speculation online and intensifying public distrust toward government secrecy surrounding national security programs.

While no official connection has been established between those deaths and the biolab investigation, critics argue the pattern is deepening concerns about covert research programs, intelligence operations, and the lack of transparency surrounding highly sensitive scientific work tied to government agencies and defense contractors.

The Trump administration has repeatedly signaled that more disclosures may be coming as Gabbard continues broader intelligence reform efforts aimed at declassifying information the administration says was improperly hidden from the American people.

With over 120 foreign laboratories now under review, the investigation is poised to become one of the most politically explosive intelligence probes since the COVID-19 pandemic first erupted.
