Following Tulsi Gabbard’s accusation that former president Barack Obama was responsible for a “years-long coup” against him, President Trump seemed to demand that the former leader be taken into custody.
Using’manufactured and politicized intelligence’ to suggest that bad actors might have impacted the outcome, she said the emails show a plot by Obama to try to undermine Trump’s victory.
“Their goal was to subvert the will of the American people and enact what was essentially a years-long coup with the objective of trying to usurp the President from fulfilling the mandate bestowed upon him by the American people,” Gabbard said.
Trump reprinted her interviews with Fox and several others regarding the matter on Truth Social, reinforcing her claims.
And on Sunday, he escalated things further by reposting an AI-generated TikTok video titled: “No one is above the law.”
The phrase “no one is above the law” was repeated by a number of Democratic figures in the clip, including Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden, and Obama.
A digitally modified footage of Trump and Obama sitting together in the Oval Office follows. Obama being scooped up by FBI agents, handcuffed, and taken away to the tune of “YMCA” by Village People. Obama is shown wearing an orange jumpsuit while incarcerated at the end of the video.
According to a 114-page document that Gabbard made public, it demonstrates that the Obama administration knew there was little risk of Russia “directly” influencing the 2016 election.
She demanded that everyone involved be looked into and maybe charged with a crime, including the former president and former FBI director James Comey.
According to the documents, senior Obama administration officials had private conversations regarding Russia’s contentious involvement in the 2016 US elections.
They detail discussions among Trump’s favorite targets, including former intelligence head James Clapper, as officials discussed how to characterize Russian election activity, despite the fact that many of the records are heavily redacted or entirely blacked out.
The documents found that there was “no indication of a Russian threat to directly manipulate the actual vote count through cyber means.”
However, according to Gabbard, the documents demonstrate that Democrats decided to disregard this or even advance the opposing viewpoint in their attempt to unseat Trump.
“Their egregious abuse of power and blatant rejection of our Constitution threatens the very foundation and integrity of our democratic republic,” Gabbard in a blistering statement accompanying the document release.
“No matter how powerful, every person involved in this conspiracy must be investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, to ensure nothing like this ever happens again.”
According to a number of documents released by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), authorities concluded that Russia would not attempt to influence the results of a US vote or would not be able to do so.
“Russia probably is not trying to going to be able to? [influence] the election by using cyber means to manipulate computer-enabled election infrastructure,” reads one draft line by the then-deputy director of ODNI.
A document sent to senior intelligence officials on December 9, after Trump’s shock victory over Democrat Hillary Clinton, instructed them to prepare an assessment “per the President’s request” regarding “tools Moscow used and actions it took to influence the 2016 election.”
“We assess Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered an influence campaign in 2016 aimed at the US presidential election,’ according to a January 2017 report titled ‘Assessing Russian Activities and Intentions in Recent US Elections.”
Russian cyber efforts against both political parties were then referenced in the report.
Of the material Gabbard released, one new August 31, 2016 document by an official with their name blacked out states that the “thrust of the analysis is that there is no indication of a Russian threat to directly manipulate the actual vote count through cyber means.”
In response, Democrats have asserted that Gabbard’s declassification is intended to divert attention away from the DOJ’s decision to end its investigation into how the Jeffrey Epstein case was handled.
In response, pending court approval, Trump has directed Attorney General Pam Bondi to provide grand jury testimony files.
