Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard said Wednesday on Fox News’ “Jesse Watters Primetime” that she couldn’t have gotten past the “deep state obstacles” to release files exposing the Russiagate hoax without a whistleblower coming forward to provide “critical pieces” to the story.
On Friday, Gabbard released newly declassified documents regarding allegations that President Donald Trump’s first campaign colluded with Russia to sway the 2016 election in his favor. While discussing the files with Fox’s Jesse Watters, the host asked Gabbard how she found evidence showing former President Barack Obama and his national security team “manufactured and politicized intelligence” in the Russia hoax.
“This was obviously important to President Trump, but, again, is an issue of importance to every single American in this country and the future of our country as a republic. So shortly after coming into this position as Director of National Intelligence, I formed a special team to investigate this issue. I’ve got to tell you, it wasn’t easy,” Gabbard said. “There were a lot of deep state obstacles that exist still within the intelligence community.”

“But, ultimately, we had a whistleblower who came forward that brought some critical pieces to this story, and we were able to discover these documents and find these documents that really pointed to President Obama directing his national security leaders in James Clapper and John Brennan to manufacture this January 2017 intelligence community assessment,” Gabbard added. “The investigation that I led at ODNI [Office of the Director of National Intelligence] that we released last week, Friday, provided a lot of those foundational building blocks and proof for what we know happened.”
During the Russiagate push in 2016, the infamous Steele dossier was eventually used as a roadmap for the investigation. While a handful of intelligence officials at the time backed the allegations, the probe ultimately failed to find any evidence proving collusion.
With questions still lingering about the continued push of the Russia hoax, Gabbard released a memo stating the agency found that Obama’s DNI James Clapper and the Department of Homeland Security withheld an FBI and NSA press release issued just weeks before the 2016 election, which said they had “low confidence” in Russia’s role in the data leaks.
Additionally, the memo said that deep state intelligence officials began leaking “blatantly false intelligence to The Washington Post” following the 2016 election.
Gabbard went on to say that the new files released Wednesday by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, taken from the January 2017 House Intelligence Committee Oversight Majority Staff report, dissect the assessment that Obama had “manufactured with fake intelligence in order to achieve knowingly using false intelligence in order to get to the conclusion that he wanted to promote to the American people that Putin had acted in favor of President Trump winning that election in 2016.”
“The report we released today, line by line, goes through it, dissecting and debunking the knowing falsehoods and lies that were included in that assessment with the specific intent to undermine the legitimacy of President Trump, to subvert the will of the American people who had just voted to elect Donald Trump in 2016, and to, in essence, launch this years-long coup against President Trump that lasted throughout the four years of his administration back in 2016,” Gabbard said.
While Obama’s spokesperson on Tuesday said that Trump’s White House was asserting “outrageous” allegations, Gabbard said she will refer the former president to the Department of Justice for criminal charges.
Now I’d like to know who killed Seth Rich.
It was a contract killing, we may never know the perp...........
So when will the FBI bang on the front doors of all of these traitors and perp walk them out to the black vans in their pajamas? I can die a happy man if I see that!
Gabbard hasn’t announced anything that we haven’t surmised for years now. The challenge has always been proving it in court. All it takes is one, or several, of the conspirators to break. The DOJ “investigations” have always been stalls that bent over backwards not to pressure anyone. If omerta has finally broken, it’s time to go to war. Legally speaking ....
Once the whistleblowers break the conspiracy open, people will start playing “let’s make a deal.”
First one to break gets The Deal....................
Remember the under ground facility that Musk found which handles government retirement records.
Now I’d like to know who killed Seth Rich.
.....
A good guess would be foot soldiers for the DNC.
Like MS-13..
Who knows. maybe we’ll find out Kilmar did it.
That means the impeachments should be expunged.....totally....and those responsible be questioned LIVE before Congress...
I give full credit to the whistleblowers.
That said Tulsi MUST be given credit as well.
NO whistleblower is ever going to come forward if they don’t TRUST who they are giving the information to.
How a person presents themselves to the media tells you a lot about how the person goes about their business.
So far, I really respect and admire how Tulsi is going about her business.
I’m hoping that Tulsi is documenting all the Deep State pitfalls hell-bent on preventing discovery of what really happened so that those machinations can be stopped and prevented forever.
For instance, the ability to hide the existence of files even to leadership in agencies needs to be done away with. If there are reasons to not disclose even the existence of records they can be marked as such even while being in the searchable database. The existence of records should never be hidden from inspectors general, the leadership of agencies, or the oversight body in Congress.
There should never be rooms of records thrown in piles without the required processing.
Stuff like that is made for Deep State manipulation, and it needs to be totally done away with. Those who got that situation going need to be exposed, removed, and prosecuted.
So I really hope all the people doing clean-up of the Deep State are taking notes with an eye in mind regarding how to do just that.
I am not paying attention to this story. Did Patel release the documents or was that another renege?
That statement would have been before Patel said he would not investigate conspiracies or whatever it is he said.
The Demonicrats (including the Enemedia) butcher their own children of the womb and allow their elderly to be euthanized. In their metastasized TDS hate and rage, they will sacrifice any number of their own politicians if it helps to get rid of President Trump and regain their political control.
MIKE BENZ: “There needs to be criminal penalties for cooking intelligence. We’ve gone to war over cooked intelligence. There needs to be images made of these people to set an example. I just hope things aren’t lost in the great Bermuda Triangle of Pam Bondi’s desk right now.”
I dont know when this aired but Graham is getting a grilling while he fixates on his hair

Put the DOGE team on it.
We need to be aware that Brennan and Clapper hired Dennis Montgomery to create software that would enable the supercomputer “The Hammer” to download government databases and undetectably upload altered databases. Montgomery gave 8 terabytes of data to Comey’s FBI in return for immunity and Comey buried it so nobody could find the proof of their scheme. Given that it was before the 2012 election and involved altering the databases of the Hawaii Dept of Health and the FL voter registrations, we can well imagine what they were scheming to do. But Comey hid that from any investigation.
Montgomery had an aneurysm and confessed to the scheme of spying on judges, justices, media personalities, Donald Trump, etc for extortion purposes because he wanted to come clean before he died. I’m sure that Comey was hoping that burying all of this would buy time so that Montgomery would die and not be available for depositions, decryption of the files, etc. My understanding is that he has had successful surgery and is still with us. Gabbard and the whole crew need to get on this ASAP while Montgomery is still available - if only to prove that the conspiracy of Russiagate is not the beginning of the conspiracies by these Deep State usurpers and their ineligible puppet Obama, and eventually it will reach back to a point that is BEFORE Obama was President, which makes Obama’s crimes prosecutable without any possibility of Presidential immunity blocking the way.
Going that far back also exposes the whole 16-year plan (8 years ineligible puppet Obama and 8 years criminal Hillary) to “fundamentally transform the US” into a communist nation. Each separate conspiracy that we’ve noticed in these years is part of that bigger plan. Seeing them all in consecutive order shows the whole conspiracy, and that rules out a lot of the defenses that these Deep State crooks would try in the media or in trials. The separate pieces have to be exposed - bam, bam, bam, bam - so that the picture becomes very clear.
Also, I think a lot of people have been praying for whistleblowers to come forward. I think I started praying for that in 2010. When I found out that Dennis Montgomery had come forward, filling in the explanations for some of the records responses I had received to records requests, I immediately believed that God had not given up on us yet, and that there would be whistleblowers. He also raised up Trump and saved him from sure death at the hands of what was probably a Deep State assassin. That was even more confirmation that God isn’t done with us yet.
So I think the whistleblowers at important times are gifts from God and pray that Goliath will soon see that a stone in a slingshot, directed by God, is more powerful than all their satanic machinations.
I’m not sure who is up to the job of prosecuting these coup conspirators.
It would be a historic and unprecedented undertaking.
I’d say a Rudy Giuliani in his prime would be up to the task.
The DOJ has been ROTTEN for decades and there isn’t any young and hungry up and comer that I know of.
Stephen Miller has the dogged intangibles to do the job, but his experience as a lawyer is not in criminal prosecution.
One thing I know bringing the traitors to justice is way too big for Blondi.
Same here, and I would go farther and say that it is also trust that Trump is going to make sure all his agency heads do right by the whistleblowers. They have to be a unified team. We need to be praying for all of them. Sometimes one person might publicly play the “bad cop” to make room for the “good cop”. So before we are too sure that we know the full story on who’s a good guy and who’s a bad guy, we need to leave room for waiting and seeing if the “bad cops” are being the foil for the “good cops”. Basketball, football, and volleyball teams routinely set up headfakes, and earnest government reformers will most certainly do the same to protect something so much more important than a game.
Ms Gabbard has a humongous girl hard-on for Hillary! Would put her in an iron maiden if she could!
Loved the tidbit of how Putin thought Hillary was a mentally ill whack job, it was a nice touch.
