Gabbard To Release More Obama Russiagate Files, Evidence Of ‘Years-Long Coup’

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is vowing to release more information this week in addition to her bombshell declassification of documents that show “overwhelming evidence” that former President Barack Obama’s administration laid the groundwork for the years-long Trump-Russia collusion investigation after President Donald Trump won the 2016 election.

“We will be releasing more detailed information about how exactly this took place, and the extent to which this information was sought to be hidden from the American people, hidden from officials who would be in a position to do something about it,” Gabbard told Fox News’ Maria Bartiromo.

“Accountability is essential for the future of our country, for the American people to have any sense of trust in the integrity of our democratic republic. Accountability, action, prosecution, and indictments for those who are responsible for trying to steal our democracy is essential for us to make sure that this never happens to our country again,” Gabbard continued.

“I really cannot fathom” how special counsels Robert Mueller and John Durham missed evidence of this “years-long coup against President Trump,” Gabbard added.

“There is no rational or logical explanation for why they failed,” Gabbard said, adding, “The only logical conclusion that I can draw in this … is that there was direct intent to cover up the truth about what occurred and who was responsible and the broad network of how this seditious conspiracy was concocted and who exactly was responsible for carrying it out.”

Among other things, Gabbard’s team unearthed a Sept. 12, 2016 intelligence community assessment that “foreign adversaries do not have and will probably not obtain the capabilities to successfully execute widespread and undetected cyber attacks” on election systems.

New disclosures from the government’s “Crossfire Hurricane” investigation into the 2016 election, otherwise known as alleged “Trump-Russia collusion,” have revealed a stunning admission from top Obama-era officials.

A newly declassified memo, released Friday by Director of Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, shows that U.S. intelligence officials concluded Russia did not play a significant role in Donald Trump’s victory over Hillary Clinton.

The documents released by Gabbard are the clearest proof yet that officials within the Obama administration had serious doubts about Russian interference, even as they proceeded with the investigation.

The memo, dated 2016, told then-President Obama directly that “Russian and criminal actors did not impact recent US election results by conducting malicious cyber activities against election infrastructure.”

While acknowledging prior reports about a possible breach of Illinois voter rolls and failed targeting attempts in other states, the memo clearly states that those efforts never compromised voting systems—and didn’t come close to altering results.

“The targeting of infrastructure not used in casting ballots makes it highly unlikely it would have resulted in altering any state’s official vote,” the document reads. It goes further: “Criminal activity also failed to reach the scale and sophistication necessary to change election outcomes.”

The disclosure is a major vindication for Trump, who has long argued that the Russia collusion narrative was a hoax pushed by the Clinton campaign and Obama intelligence officials to sabotage his presidency before it began.

And now the pressure is turning on the people who pushed it.

FBI officials are preparing the groundwork for a possible criminal investigation into former CIA Director John Brennan, former FBI Director James Comey, and others involved in launching and running the Crossfire Hurricane probe.

According to a release from current CIA Director John Ratcliffe, career intelligence officials say Brennan deliberately kept parts of the investigation secret from other agencies and aggressively pushed to include the now-debunked Steele dossier.

This document falsely claimed connections between Trump and Russian agents.

A 200-page congressional audit has been compiled after a secret meeting last weekend between the DOJ and intelligence officials. They’re now looking at whether to declassify even more documents, including Crossfire Hurricane notes and transcripts from special counsel John Durham’s investigation, which concluded in 2023 that the Trump–Russia connection was baseless.

Gabbard’s disclosure appears to be the first step in a broader transparency effort.

Officials are also looking at whether Brennan may have perjured himself in testimony to Congress, when he denied using the Steele dossier in the intelligence community’s final assessment.

Although the statute of limitations on perjury may have expired, officials believe he could still face charges for conspiracy to commit perjury.
