Yesterday, seated in the Oval Office beside a visibly stunned Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. —who thought he was attending a trade deal announcement and suddenly looked like he’d accidentally wandered into a political nuclear test— President Trump said the slowly boiling truth out loud.
He accused Barack Obama of treason. On camera. In front of foreign heads of state and his top cabinet!
Trump didn’t hedge, tease, or suggest. He boldly declared, “They have him stone cold. And it was President Obama. Barack Hussein Obama, he’s guilty. It’s not a question. This was treason.”
Even for Trump, it was a Rubicon moment— one that shattered a hundred years of presidential restraint. You’d think WaPo might start there. Or maybe lean into the “revenge!” theme they themselves built during the election.
It is impossible to believe Trump would’ve made that bold claim —so stark, so direct, so public— without knowing there’s a formal DOJ investigation already underway. Trump understands defamation law better than most lawyers. You don’t accuse a former president of treason in front of the entire world unless you have proof; maybe even something close to prosecutable evidence.
And that’s not exaggeration. Based on the strength of Trump’s words, and the solemnity of the venue, I wouldn’t be surprised to learn a grand jury is already hearing evidence.
What made Trump’s moment yesterday so Rubicon-like wasn’t the accusation itself. It was the irreversible commitment it represented. You don’t accuse a former president of treason —on camera, in the Oval Office, claiming you have the proof— and later shrug it off as political theater. Sorry, never mind!
There’s no walking this back. No “whoops; just asking questions” lifeline. Trump has cast the dice, and now the Fates are spinning up their thread—measuring, cutting, and preparing for the reckoning to come.
It’s not a political strategy. It is High Noon in Washington. Either Obama faces justice, or Trump’s presidency is buried beneath the weight of his own words.
It’s Thunderdome. Two men enter, one man leaves. It’s that simple.
Barack Obama’s office responded to Trump’s Oval Office treason accusation by calling it… a “distraction.”
Not defamation. Not libel. Not even baseless. Just a distraction.
“Distraction” is a bizarre word to choose when a sitting president has just accused you of the most serious crime in the Constitution, on camera, from the Oval Office, with foreign heads of state watching and evidence allegedly in hand.
Where’s the angry denial? The threats of legal action? The righteous fury? You’d expect Obama’s office —following Trump’s example, a perfect setup— to unload both barrels, to drop the full weight of prestige, moral clarity, and legal firepower. But nope. Instead, we got Obama spokesweasel Patrick Rodenbush blinking in the sunlight and muttering something about a distraction.
I am not nearly bold enough to predict an Obama arrest. It seems unthinkable. But is it, really? It wouldn’t be historic if Obama were arrested, since they arrested Trump. An Obama conviction wouldn’t even be historic, since they criminally convicted Trump of mislabeling check stubs or something.
Think about this, hard. Trump and his allies have already been indicted, tried, and in some cases convicted for the exact same core crime now facing Barack Obama. Trump’s conviction in New York —though dressed up as a salacious, absurdly large-chested “business records” case— was explicitly framed by prosecutors as part of an election interference scheme.
Jack Smith’s federal case centered on election interference through obstruction and conspiracy. The Fulton County indictments in Georgia? Election interference. And Trump’s so-called “co-conspirators”—several of whom have already pleaded guilty in the “Fake Electors” case—were all charged with conspiracy to interfere with the outcome of a presidential election.
In short, the legal system has already established that election interference is a jailable offense for former presidents and their teams. The precedent is not a law school hypothetical. It’s already case law.
Will there be an arrest? Dunno. But maybe the better question is: why wouldn’t there be an arrest?

I like that analogy. I also like the odds.
Bad comparison. Arnold saved the Nation at Saratoga.
I think Obama will move to Hawaii and Michelle will stay at Martha’s Vineyard.....living in the lap of luxury...It’s called “divorce” with no papers.
So what does Tulsi have wrt the two assassination attempts on Trump?
The Obama/Biden/Hillary cabal couldnt get rid of Trump
using lawfare, the Russian hoax, electorally.
So what was left?

There’s also the matter of Obama filching tax dollars lawfully appropriated for other purposes.........
and using govt offices, equipment, personnel, and supplies to commit crimes against the state.
Watching Tulsi operate, methinks she’s holding back crucial
documents to spring on the Kenyan crowd when it really matters.
Some dream of such a strategy, Tulsi doling out info, getting the treasonous perps
to vehemently claim innocence, than hitting them over the head with the “smoking gun.”
Then Trump could send him to CECOT.

“You don’t accuse a former president of treason —on camera, in the Oval Office, claiming you have the proof— and later shrug it off as political theater. “
This is rule number 1 in the democrat playbook. They have been doing it since 2016.
They already sold the house on Martha’s Vineyard
I do believe they are separating...just an opinion...
Today, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard declassified and released the 2020 House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence report (HPSCI), that outlines their investigation into the Intelligence Community Joint Analysis Report (JAR) of 2016 and the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) that followed.
I know that’s a lot of acronyms, however, the key element of Director Tulsi Gabbard’s release today is to underscore just how fraudulent the JAR/ICA created in 2016 and 2017 was. The JAR/ICA report was fabricated by the CIA and Intelligence Community to give the appearance of Russia interfering in the election. The declassified HPSCI report takes that fraudulent intelligence analysis apart, step by step.
The JAR/ICA was also used to justify President Obama expelling Russian diplomats, confiscating Russian property, targeting Russian officials for sanctions, and imposing a series of sanctions against various Russian entities, individuals, groups and organizations. All of the Obama’s Russian targeting effort was part of an enhanced IC op to give additional patina of credibility to the fraudulent premise.
In many ways, Russia was collateral damage created by a domestic USA political intelligence operation run by Obama allies in order to attempt to destabilize the incoming administration of President Donald Trump.
Tulsi Gabbard gives a press conference.
WATCH:
Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt Briefs Members of the Media, July 23, 2025
I will have more on the Tulsi release of the HPSCI report shortly. In the interim…
It would appear that President Trump is setting a new baseline for a relationship with Russia. However, first the tables need to be cleared of the historic manipulation and targeting that structurally, and fraudulently, set the course of conflict and antagonism in U.S-Russia relations.
That was a place they used to rent years back I believe..
Thanks for posting. BUMP!!!
