In a stunning rebuke to the liberal media’s long-standing narrative, Tulsi Gabbard, now serving in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), fired back at Barack Obama after the former president issued a carefully crafted denial of his involvement in the Trump-Russia collusion hoax. The controversy erupted after President Donald Trump rightfully called out Obama as the “ringleader” of the scandal, declaring it nothing short of treason—a deliberate attempt to undermine his 2016 election victory and sabotage his presidency from day one.
BREAKING: Trump just WENT OFF about Obamagate and said the DOJ should go DIRECTLY after Obama.
"NEVER has a thing like this happened before in our country."

Trump’s Bold Accusation: “This Was Treason”
Speaking from the Oval Office, President Trump didn’t hold back, naming names and exposing the deep-state conspiracy that plagued his administration.
“Barack Hussein Obama is the ringleader. Hillary Clinton was right there with him and so was Sleepy Joe Biden… and so were the rest of them. Comey, Clapper, the whole group,” Trump stated. “This was treason… they tried to steal the election.”

These are not baseless claims. A declassified December 2016 presidential briefing confirms that Obama knew the Russia collusion story was a hoax—yet he and his allies manufactured and weaponized intelligence to push the false narrative that Trump was a Kremlin puppet. This was a coordinated political hit job, one that the corporate media eagerly amplified for years.
Obama’s Weak Defense Crumbles Under Scrutiny
Faced with Trump’s damning accusations, Obama’s office scrambled to respond with a patronizing, dismissive statement, dripping with the same arrogance that defined his administration.
“Out of respect for the office of the presidency, our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response. But these claims are outrageous enough to merit one. These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction,” Obama’s spokesperson claimed.
They then doubled down on the debunked Russia interference narrative, citing the Senate Intelligence Committee’s 2020 report—conveniently ignoring that no votes were changed and that the entire collusion theory was a sham from the start.
Tulsi Strikes Back: New Documents Coming to Expose the Truth
Refusing to let Obama’s gaslighting stand, Tulsi Gabbard took to Fox News and Newsmax, vowing to release newly uncovered documents that will blow apart Obama’s lies.
“We will be releasing further documents tomorrow that will refute that statement,” Gabbard declared. “We will be pulling a whole host of statements made by the Obama administration… that state over and over again, after this Jan. 2017 manufactured intel document was created, that repeat the narrative… Russian hackers worked to aid Trump in the election.”
This is a major escalation in the ongoing battle to expose the deep state’s coup attempt against President Trump. While the liberal media continues to protect Obama and his cronies, real patriots like Gabbard and Trump are fighting to uncover the truth—no matter how much the left tries to suppress it.
