Tulsi Gabbard Reused the Same Weak Password on Multiple Accounts for Years

Gabbard’s deputy chief of staff, Alexa Henning, responded to questions from the Journal at the time by posting them on X and accusing the news media of publicizing “Hinduphobic smears and other lies.” “The data breaches you’re referring to occurred almost 10 years ago, and the passwords have changed multiple times since,” wrote Olivia Coleman, a Gabbard spokesperson, in response to questions from WIRED. “Your bigoted lies and smears of a cabinet member and your story fomenting hinduphobia is noted,” wrote Henning in response to a follow-up question about the probability of Gabbard’s password containing the same name she was reportedly received into Science of Identity Foundation with, given her denials that she has ever been affiliated with the group.
