DOJ launches ‘strike force’ to investigate Obama officials over 2016 election

UNITED STATES, JUL 24 – The Department of Justice formed a strike force following declassified documents and criminal referrals alleging Obama administration officials fabricated the Trump-Russia collusion narrative.

  • A specialized strike force was launched by the Department of Justice to investigate declassified records suggesting top Obama officials fabricated the Trump–Russia collusion narrative, targeting alleged misconduct.
  • Following declassified records from DNI Tulsi Gabbard, she claims they directly point to President Obama leading the manufacturing of this intelligence assessment, and the DOJ move follows criminal referrals.
  • The FBI is also investigating, and the DOJ's National Security Division will join the probe after Gabbard claims Obama officials fabricated intelligence, with testimony denying direct collusion evidence.
  • Attorney General Pam Bondi said, `We will investigate these troubling disclosures fully and leave no stone unturned to deliver justice`, while President Donald Trump said, `They did things that nobody's ever imagined, even in other countries`.
  • With potential repercussions, the strike force will determine legal steps, potentially exposing serious abuses of federal power.
