US EditionJustice Department opens grand jury probe into Obama officials over Russia investigation
- On July 23, Tulsi Gabbard, who had declassified documents, submitted materials to the Department of Justice alleging a 2016 plot by officials from the Obama administration.
- Gabbard's disclosure came after she alleged that officials from the Obama administration fabricated intelligence to create a false narrative connecting the Trump campaign with Russia and to sabotage his 2016 presidential bid.
- On July 23, Attorney General Pam Bondi ordered federal prosecutors to initiate a grand jury investigation and established a DOJ strike force to review the allegations raised by Tulsi Gabbard.
- Trump viewed the investigation as confirmation of his accusations against Obama, while a spokesperson for Obama dismissed the claims as baseless and an ineffective attempt to divert attention.
- The investigation may lead to indictments if prosecutors present sufficient evidence, but Democrats consider the claims politically motivated and Russia denies interference.
