(Rasmussen) Poll: Most voters believe Obama admin. ‘likely committed crimes’ in ‘Russiagate’
One America News ^ | August 5, 2025 | Katherine Mosack

A recent poll has revealed that 54% of likely U.S. voters believe that members of former President Barack Obama’s national security team likely committed crimes by promoting a false narrative about Donald Trump’s ties with Russia.

Rasmussen Reports conducted a national telephone and online survey of 1,172 U.S. likely voters last week, inquiring about the following questions:

How closely have you followed recent news about investigations of national security during the Obama administration? A recent report from the Director of National Intelligence concluded that President Obama’s national security team manipulated and manufactured intelligence to promote a false narrative about Russia and Donald Trump. How likely is it that Obama administration officials committed serious crimes in manipulating intelligence? Do you agree or disagree with this statement about the manipulation of intelligence in the Obama administration: “Accountability has to take place. … It is critical for the survival of our country that people who perpetrate such crimes are held accountable?”

The poll found that among the 54% that consider it “likely” that Obama’s team committed serious crimes, 37% consider it “very likely.” 41% don’t think it’s likely, including 28% who answered “not at all likely.”

“86% of Republicans, 59% of Democrats and 62% of unaffiliated voters at least somewhat agree with the Gabbard quote about how important it is ‘that people who perpetrate such crimes are held accountable,’” the Rasmussen analysis reported.

Meanwhile, 69% of participants in the Rasmussen survey—more than two-thirds—agreed with the idea that there must be accountability for the crimes committed, siding with the Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.

Pretty amazing since the legacy media won’t touch this with a ten foot pole.

“Hey! You people in the media! You might want to check this out! Most people think that crimes were committed.”
“Yeah, but there’s no evidence.”

“Actually, there is a lot of evidence. Look at this. And this. And this. See all this evidence?”
“Yeah, but there’s no evidence.”

Before departing for his luxe Martha’s Vineyard estate vacay, ghetto boy Obama
instructed aides to pursue ways to “deter Moscow” and to proceed along three main paths:
<><>get a high-confidence assessment from US intel agencies on “Russia’s role and intent;”
<><>shore up any vulnerabilities in state-run election systems;
<><>seek bipartisan support
<><>get congressional leaders to sign a statement “condemning Moscow”
<><>the execrable posterior-kisser Susan Rice stepped up
<><>she focused on then-Leader Mitch McConnell and then -majority Senate Republicans
<><>she plotted to get them to sign a “bipartisan letter”
<><>she sweet talked them in “condemning Moscow” wrt “Russian hacking”.

That’s when the Kenyan-led group of coup plotters brought the conspiracy from one govt
branch to another. Surely, we can find something in the law to apply to devious Democrats?

This line makes no sense to me:

“The poll found that among the 54% that consider it “likely” that Obama’s team committed serious crimes, 37% consider it “very likely.” 41% don’t think it’s likely, including 28% who answered “not at all likely.”

How can 37% of the people who consider it likely not think it’s likely, including 28% who think it not likely at all?

This report is confusing all the way around. Gabbard summarized the House Report as saying that the Russians wanted to sow distrust in our electoral system rather than support either candidate? What did the Russians even do? From what I’ve read, they hacked the Open Society Foundations and discovered this plot by Hillary, Obama, and the entire executive branch to frame Trump for colluding with Russia. Soros’s Open Society Foundations guy knew that Russia had not hacked the DNC emails, which is why they needed Crowdstrike to make up crap, hide the computers from the FBI, and lean on the Mockingbird press to lie about it all.

So what did Russia actually do, even?

OK, now I see; there’s a period before the 41%. So 54% consider it likely (37% of those “very” likely) and 41% think it unlikely (28% of those “not at all likely”)

So 37% very likely, 17% likely, 13% unlikely, and 28% “not at all likely”.

So 41% are totally brain-dead, relying only on the Mockingbird media, 54% have heard and considered the primary-source reporting to be accurate but 17% of those leave room for the actions taken not being criminal (probably thinking there are loopholes for Obama because he was supposedly Prez and for the others because they were “just following orders”. I don’t know if the poll was taken before the disclosure of the emails by the Soros guy showing it was all a lie to cover up Hillary’s email mess, and that Russia was aware that this cabal planned to knowingly libel Trump using the executive branch’s presumed credibility as a campaign strategy.

The report is not written or formatted for easiest understanding and comprehension, I wish it was.

However, Obama and his fellow conspirators are Guilty As Sin, and Free As Birds, except from Bad Publicity.

Spread the word.

This is with the MSM constant blocking of the news.
Imagine what it would be like if the MSM actually reported accurately....

There are a great many of us who knew exactly what the “Obama adminsitration” was from his first term.
We also knew it would take awhile for the evidence to start piling up for this “scandal free” president.
It’s now happening faster than we thought it would, and I, for one, couldn’t be more thrilled.

Because the media was complicit in the coup.

The Obama Administration effectively became the Left’s totalitarian dictatorship. Opponents were targeted. It started with General Motors (Rick Wagoner gave to a GOP opponent in 2008) and Chrysler (Bob Nardelli did the same) in order to force the EV mandate and high taxes on the auto industry.

Then we saw what the staff did to Trump in 2016 and further. Their antics are now seen for changing the nation into one that can be controlled by them. Anyone who opposed their views on finance, production, control, worldview, et al, could be tagged for their iron fist.

OBAMA COMMITTED A CRIME TO GET HIS OPPONENT IN ILLINOIS OUT OF SENATE RACE...

HE SUBMITTED A FAKE BIRTH CERTIFICATE AFTER MONTHS OF QUESTIONS

HE USED A SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER THAT WASN’T HIS FOR YEARS.

HE NEVER HAS HAD CLEAN HANDS
