Tulsi Gabbard alleges that senior Obama administration officials engaged in a "treasonous conspiracy" to skew intelligence reports on Russian interference in the 2016 election, aiming to subvert the will of the American people and enact a years-long coup to usurp President Trump from fulfilling his mandate.
Gabbard released declassified documents and memos showing that before the 2016 election, the intelligence community assessed Russia was probably not trying to influence the election using cyber means. She claims these assessments were later manipulated by officials including former DNI James Clapper, CIA Director John Brennan, and FBI Director James Comey, to manufacture and politicize intelligence against President Trump.
Certain congressional Democrats have challenged Gabbard's claims, with figures like Senator Mark Warner asserting that the bipartisan conclusion remains that Russia interfered in the 2016 election to benefit Trump. Warner described Gabbard's efforts as attempts to rewrite history and erode trust in intelligence agencies. House Intelligence Ranking Member Jim Himes also affirmed that investigations have upheld the original 2016 intelligence assessments.
Tulsi Gabbard has formally submitted a report to the Department of Justice seeking criminal prosecution and a formal investigation into the alleged conspiracy by Obama administration officials to undermine President Trump's 2016 election victory, emphasizing accountability and legal action against those involved.
