‘There must be indictments’: Tulsi Gabbard details ‘treasonous conspiracy directed by President Obama’
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said Sunday “there must be indictments” in connection with a “treasonous conspiracy” by President Obama and his officials to thwart President Donald Trump in the aftermath of Trump’s first White House victory in 2016.
“There must be indictments, no matter how powerful they were at that time,” Gabbard said on “Sunday Morning Futures” with Maria Bartiromo on the Fox News Channel regarding “manufactured intelligence” by Obama officials suggesting there was Russian collusion to impact the race. “They all must be held accountable.”
“We are referring all of the documents we have uncovered to the Department of Justice and the FBI for criminal referral,” she added.

While noting she was not a lawyer, Gabbard expressed confidence in criminal prosecutions of the perpetrators.
“In my view, we have the evidence to move forward and indict and prosecute those responsible,” she said.
“The implications of this are frankly nothing short of historic. Over 100 documents that we released on Friday really detail and provide evidence of how this treasonous conspiracy was directed by President Obama just weeks after he was due to leave office after President Trump had already gotten elected.”

Gabbard noted this is not a Democrat or Republican issue.
“This is an issue that is so serious that it should concern every single American because it has to do with the integrity of our democratic republic,” she said.
“We had a sitting president of the United States and his Cabinet and leadership team quite frankly who were not happy with the fact that President Trump had won the election.”
“They decided that they would do everything possible to try to undermine his ability to do what voters tasked President Trump to do.
“So creating this piece of manufactured intelligence that claims that Russia had helped Donald Trump get elected, contradicted every other assessment that had been made previously in the months leading up to the election that said exactly the opposite that Russia had neither the intent nor the capability to try to ‘hack’ the election for the presidency of the United States.
“The effect of what President Obama and his senior national security team did was subvert the will of the American people, undermining our democratic republic, and enacting what would be essentially a years-long coup against President Trump who was duly elected by the American people.”
Gabbard explained once the manufactured intelligence was created after Trump’s election in November 2016, “There was a shift in early December.”
“Russia did not attempt to affect the outcome of the American election. That was never published. Hours before it would have gone into President Obama’s president’s daily brief, it was pulled by a senior-level intelligence official saying that they had to pull it because they had received new guidance.

“The very next day, this meeting was called, a National Security Council meeting, bringing all the senior members of President Obama’s Cabinet, and the topic that was put forward was a sensitive matter.
“The tasks that came out of that meeting was coming from President Obama directing the intelligence community then Obama’s ODNI Director [James] Clapper to produce a document, to produce an intelligence assessment that detailed not if, but how Moscow had affected the outcome of the election that had already occurred electing Donald Trump to the presidency. This document that they published in January of 2017 was the foundational groundwork that they continued reference over and over and over again to enact this years-long coup against President Trump.”
Gabbard indicated “more detailed information about how exactly this took place” will be released next week.
“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,” she concluded.
“Accountability, action, prosecution, 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, about how exactly this took place.”
President Trump amplified Gabbard’s message, posting clips of Gabbard on his Truth Social page.
