While most of us knew it already, or at least assumed it based on what's happened over the past nearly 10 years, new evidence was released this week that suggested President Barack Obama's administration manufactured and politicized evidence to push the Russia hoax theory.
According to Breitbart, Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard released a trove of documents showing further proof that the Russia hoax was especially intricate and insane.
Gabbard's document dump, in her opinion, will mean that “Americans will finally learn the truth" about how far the Obama administration went in pushing the Russia hoax.
The documents show that the former administration perpetrated essentially "what was essentially a years-long coup."
DNI Gabbard, in a series of X posts, released multiple reports regarding the situation

She added, "For months preceding the 2016 election, the Intelligence Community shared a consensus view: Russia lacked the intent and capability to hack U.S. elections. But weeks after President Trump’s historic 2016 victory defeating Hillary Clinton, everything changed."
She included graphics to accompany the information, many of which showed screenshots of texts by former Obama officials behind the Russia hoax.
Breitbart noted:
Despite the intelligence community’s consensus that Russia “lacked the intent and capability to hack U.S. elections” prior to Trump’s 2016 win over Hillary Clinton, Gabbard said Obama’s officials changed their tune soon after the president won, ignoring the evidence.
One of the assessments read, "We assess that Russian and criminal actors did not impact recent US election results by conducting malicious cyber activities against election infrastructure."
Many weighed in on the document dump, with some taking issue as it was at the same time that the Jeffrey Epstein situation boiled over after many in the Trump administration seemingly downplayed it.
"I see all this, and not one single person being charged with anything. If no one is held accountable it doesn't matter," one X user wrote.
Another X user wrote, "Oh my goodness Tulsi, we've so needed this. Thank you so much for what you're doing!!"
Only time will tell if anything comes of the documents or if any Obama officials are held accountable.
