Tulsi Gabbard Declassifies Files Alleging Obama-Era Intelligence Coup Against Trump

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, UNITED STATES, JUL 18 – Documents declassified by DNI Tulsi Gabbard show Obama officials altered 2016 Russia intelligence to support a narrative that led to a lengthy investigation into alleged election interference.

  • On July 18, 2025, Tulsi Gabbard, serving as Director of National Intelligence, released documents alleging that high-ranking Obama administration officials engaged in a treasonous plot against President Trump.
  • The declassified records reveal that the Obama administration suppressed a December 2016 intelligence assessment stating Russia did not interfere with election systems or alter results.
  • The documents include 114 pages of redacted emails and two intelligence community assessments dated September 2016 and January 2017 debating Russian election interference.
  • Gabbard called the actions an 'egregious abuse of power' that threatens the republic’s integrity and said every person involved must be prosecuted, while Trump criticized officials as 'crooked as hell.'
  • The release could strengthen criminal investigations into Obama-era intelligence officials and may challenge the narrative of Russian interference used to undermine Trump’s presidency.
