Biden's State Department Spokesman Criticizes Gabbard’s Claims on 2016 Election in Fox News Op-Ed
UNITED STATES, JUL 24 – Tulsi Gabbard released selected 2016 election documents to challenge the intelligence consensus on Russian interference, describing it as a cover-up while critics cite established bipartisan findings.
- Tulsi Gabbard, serving as Director of National Intelligence, recently released over 100 pages of selected documents alleging a 2016 conspiracy by Obama-era officials to politicize intelligence against Donald Trump.
- Gabbard's claims build on a five-year-old classified House report she declassified and cite emails disputing that Russia hacked or manipulated votes in the 2016 election.
- Multiple investigations, including a Republican-led Senate Intelligence Committee report, concluded Russia ran an influence campaign to undermine Clinton and support Trump.
- Officials concluded that Russia did not interfere by changing votes or tampering with voting systems, and the documents released by Gabbard fail to provide evidence supporting her allegations.
- A spokesman criticized Gabbard's allegations as untrue fabrications aimed at distracting from other issues and reaffirmed established findings on Russian interference.

There are parallels and common judgments between them (probably in part because the CIA one was limited to “CIA materials provided to congressional oversight investigations”). Both say the confidence level for the judgment that Putin “aspired” to help then-candidate Donald Trump win the election was too high. Both say John Brenn…
Just how high did the Russiagate farce originate?
Tulsi Gabbard’s declassification of documents that support the view that the intelligence community engaged in a deliberate conspiracy to target the incoming president with false or dubious claims is truly explosive – unless you deliberately choose to ignore it. Surprise, surprise – the same people who helped manufacture and propagate these claims in the first place are sticking to their guns, with the normal veterans of the CNN octobox. A suspi…
MSNBC: Russia Report Just an ‘In the Weeds’ Report From 9 Years Ago
On Thursday, MSNBC’s Ana Cabrera ran a segment on her eponymous show regarding the recent Russian election interference report from DNI Tulsi Gabbard. NBC News Justice Reporter Ryan Riley was asked about the details, which led to him talking in circles about the minority of the report and how “in the weeds” it supposedly was.
