Has anyone asked Hussein about all this?

The Won...

His election, and (tThis Guy’s Opinion) subsequent Jan 6 sanation, bringing him from being a non-NBC, to being an NBC for all Constitutional intents and purposes (including the office of POTUS), certainly had consequences.

MIRANDA: It’s hard to believe that high echelon presidential Russiagate plotters are so stupid

Oh, I don’t know—you have to be pretty stupid
to think you could get away w/ screwing Trump.

MIRANDA:.”declassified docs from Tulsi’s files show they managed to hide their
nefarious activities for a decade, but that then-Pres Obama’s henchmen were none too bright....

It would be interesting to know why these documents were not uncovered in the first Trump term. How did Gabbard discover them?

On the very day Obama ordered the ICA, Dec. 9, 2016, The Washington Post ran an anon­ymously sourced story that claimed “the CIA has concluded in a secret assessment that Russia intervened in the 2016 election to help Donald Trump win the presidency.”

How prescient of them.

“I’m concerned that, given the expedited nature of this activity, my folks aren’t fully comfortable saying that they have had enough time to review all of the intelligence to be absolutely confident in their assessments,” Rogers wrote.

Translation: "I read your report and it smells like BS."

Trump had people around him in his first term that were playing for the other team

[logi_cal869]

They never expected to not get away with it and that DJT would prevail once again to become the 47th POTUS to go hunting for them.

“Stupid” is not the right word.

[LouAvul]

Even some freepers spouted as to how smart O'Bummer is and masterminded the collapse of America. The man is a fool. A small time ChiCongo ghetto grifter who was tapped to be point man by some globalist cabal. They stole the election for him. They gave him his orders.

He's got his coming, as do they. But he's still a fool.

[FreedBird]

Pin the tail on the donkey.

You’re kidding, right? Trump had No DECENT PEOPLE the first term. He had NO idea they could be so bad.

And the good people weren’t willing to put up with the abuse they and their families would receive that came with working for Trump.

[DeplorablePaul]

You’re exactly right. Even Trump admitted it. He said that he had worked with shady characters before he went to DC but had no idea how evil the people down there are.

The cover story is that everyone knew about them for a decade......
but Tulsi was “the first” who was “able” to declassify them.

[Repealthe17thAmendment]

When we look at who was running the IC during Trump's first term, we find people like Christopher Wray, Gina Haspel and Bill Barr. No wonder the documents were hidden, and no telling what was destroyed.

During that first term, Trump was learning the ropes of politics as well as the inside Washington beauracracy. At the same time, he's trying to implement an agenda, and all the while, he's being attacked from within by the FBI. And when that didn't stop him, they brought out COVID.

They aren't stupid, they are uber arrogant because they think nothing will happen to them (and they might be right).

They’re stupid and arrogant.....and a lot more.

My guess is at the direction of a whistleblower(s).
