Gabbard Rescinds Biden-Era Intel Assessments that Were Skeptical About ‘Havana Syndrome’
Gabbard said the earlier reviews excluded evidence and relied on a flawed medical study, and former officials welcomed the move.
- On Thursday, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard revoked two Biden-era intelligence assessments that cast doubt on foreign involvement in Havana Syndrome affecting American spies and diplomats.
- In her official memo, Gabbard argued the earlier reports selectively excluded relevant intelligence, suppressed alternative analysis, and relied on a flawed medical study regarding what the government terms anomalous health incidents, or AHI.
- Rep. Rick Crawford, Republican of Arkansas and chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, called the recalled assessment "deliberately manufactured" and said it had impeded victims' access to medical care.
- President Donald Trump nominated Jay Clayton, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, to replace Gabbard on Thursday, as she is expected to step down next week.
- It remains unclear whether the rescission will spawn new investigative efforts into AHI, though the government previously spent more than $10 million to purchase a device producing pulsed radio waves.
