DNI Tulsi Gabbard released over 100 declassified documents she says provide overwhelming evidence that President Obama and his national security team directed the creation of an intelligence assessment they knew was false — manufacturing the Russia collusion narrative that consumed Trump’s first term entirely.
The DOJ confirmed it received Gabbard’s criminal referral — and while declining further comment the confirmation alone sent shockwaves through Washington because it means federal prosecutors now have to decide what to do with evidence pointing directly at a former president. Obama has not responded publicly. He does not have to yet. But the referral sitting on that DOJ desk is not going away — and everyone in Washington knows it.
