Tulsi Gabbard Just Made Obama Eat It on the Russian Collusion Hoax

President Trump was on the warpath yesterday, accusing former President Barack Obama of treason for his role in the Russian Collusion hoax. His office issued a weak sauce statement, the media did their party trying to dismiss this story, and the liberal pundit class tried to claim that this was conspiracy talk and a distraction from the Epstein files. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard promised to shut Obama up, essentially, claiming she has more documents that she would release that would obliterate the former president’s remarks and nuke the Deep State from orbit. 

She did that today. The new files have been released, and they once again have Barack Obama's fingerprints all over them.

It circles back to the core of that sinister operation—the willful manipulation and weaponization of intelligence to attack a political opponent and smear him in the press. They knew they had the media in their pocket, an institution that would run with anything fed to them. And it worked. Gabbard’s office released a declassified 2020 House Intelligence Committee report that showed that the Obama intelligence team had ZERO evidence of collusion between Donald Trump and Moscow, which tilted the 2016 race, but Obama ordered it to be published anyway.  

Ex-DNI James Clapper knew the Steele Dossier was garbage, but included it anyway, circling back to that now-infamous December 9, 2016, meeting where Obama ordered a new intelligence assessment after his IC came to the initial conclusion that there was no Russian collusion. A narrative had already been set forth; they needed to make it credible, which led to the inclusion of an unverified, politically biased piece of campaign opposition research, subsidized by the Clinton campaign, in the 2017 report. 

President Obama, former Director of the CIA John Brennan, and others fabricated the Russia Hoax, suppressed intelligence showing Putin was preparing for a Clinton victory, manufactured findings from shoddy sources, disobeyed IC standards, and knowingly lied to the American people. 

Not only did CIA Director Brennan, FBI Director Comey, DNI Clapper and others include the Steele Dossier in the 2017 ICA, they overruled senior Intel officials who warned them it was fabricated and should not be used.

It reinforces the first trove of documents Gabbard released, but another slew of files and one name is all over them as the undisputed ringleader: Barack Obama.
