A wave of headlines detail a renewed political battle as former President Donald Trump and Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard accuse Barack Obama and his administration of orchestrating a 'treasonous conspiracy' during the 2016 election. Trump has repeatedly claimed, without evidence, that Obama and his officials manufactured intelligence about Russian interference to undermine his presidency, even calling for their prosecution. Gabbard has released declassified documents and threatened criminal referrals, but critics and former officials, including Obama, have dismissed these allegations as baseless and politically motivated. The intelligence community and multiple investigations previously concluded that Russia did interfere in the 2016 election, contradicting the revisionist claims. The controversy highlights ongoing efforts to relitigate the origins and handling of the Russia investigation, deepening partisan divides.
