Over several days, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard has declassified and published government documents that she says "verify that the alleged Russia-Trump collusion during the 2016 election was a hoax concocted by Democrats to undermine both the Trump campaign and the Trump Administration. Assessments by the intelligence community and forwarded to President Obama found no evidence of collusion between the Russians and Trump. Yet, President Obama dismissed this finding and insisted that a collusion meme be pursued. This was used to justify unwarranted surveillance of American citizens and a media campaign to cast suspicion on Trump."
Former President Barack Obama justified his actions, saying "the US Supreme Court recently ruled that a president cannot be held liable for taking actions he believes are necessary. In my judgment, Donald Trump represented an existential threat to our democracy. I directed the resources under my control to take whatever measures were needed to prevent Trump from winning the 2016 election. When this failed, I instructed the CIA and FBI to do whatever they could to neutralize Trump's ability to govern. This effort was largely successful. Trump was impeached twice and ultimately was defeated in his reelection bid. I should've received another Nobel Peace Prize. Instead I'm now being called a traitor by Trump."
Former CIA Director John Brennan said "Gabbard's publication of the documents confirming our efforts to save our democracy from Trump's fascism a grave disservice to the patriots who took extraordinary, but necessary steps to prevent him from undoing the transformational changes achieved by President Obama. Trump's loss to Biden in 2020 confirmed the wisdom of the unprecedented intervention ordered by President Obama. It is tragic that President Biden's inability to run for reelection allowed Trump's clever lies to overwhelm his unprepared and incoherent opponent and trick voters into giving him another chance to ruin the country in the 2024 election."
Rep. Jim Himes (D-CT), the ranking Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, said that "Gabbard should stop releasing documents that contradict the narrative that we all agreed on during Trump's first term--namely, that Russia did meddle in the election to help Trump win. She is stirring up trouble that could damage reputations, end careers, or even cost lives. For the sake of the country she should let bygones be bygones."
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex) observed that "I'm doubtful that any president's official duties entail using government resources to promote lies that subvert the election process or the administration of his successor. This is fundamentally very different from a president exploiting his Commander-in-Chief authority to authorize an 'October surprise' military action in an effort to win votes. So, I think it would be difficult for the Supreme Court to classify former President Obama's actions as constitutional. On the other hand, statute of limitations rules may put many of the crimes committed by these conspirators beyond the reach of successful prosecution."
Former DNI James Clapper expressed concern that he might be prosecuted for his role in the Russia collusion hoax, saying "I was only following the orders given to us all by President Obama. I don't think it is fair to say I had no obligation to follow illegal orders. I'm not an effing lawyer. How would I be expected to know the difference between a legal and an illegal order?"
The more self-assured former FBI Director James Comey asserted "no reasonable Attorney General would try to prosecute any of us for doing what we sincerely believed was right. This held true when former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton mishandled classified material. I expect it will also hold true in this case."
In related news, Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) asserted that "a recently declassified document exposed an extreme lack of effort and due diligence in the FBI's investigation of former Secretary Clinton's email usage and mishandling of highly classified information. Under Comey's leadership, the FBI failed to perform fundamental investigative work and ignored or suppressed key pieces of evidence. I'm grateful the American people can now finally see the facts for themselves."

His exposition is simple, clear and understandable.
We all should look it up and listen to it.
I think your satire is more accurate than you might think.
Clapper is going to be the first to crack. He strikes me as a very insecure man.
If you notice he hardly ever looks at the person or persons he’s talking to.
His body language reeks with dishonesty.
Yet, unlike the others, I think he has ping of embarrassment and regret for what he did.
I would not be surprised one bit, if he says that he was simply “following orders of the president. I knew in my heart it was wrong, but everyone in the room agreed that Trump was a threat to this country of ours.”
These people never thought they’d get caught.
As far as I could tell, Obama was the traitor & the one who should never have been elected. Neither should Biden have ever been elected. How long will we be trying to get their mistakes(?) for the country straightened out? From the looks of things right now, it may be quite awhile.
