Deep state tried to redact Gabbard’s release
CIA officials tried to gut DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s declassification of the Russia-hoax files. She overrode them—and President Trump approved a release with “minimal redactions, no edits.”
Here’s what they wanted buried 👇🧵
The just-declassified 46-page House Intel report shows Obama-era officials:
- Fabricated the Jan 2017 ICA;
- Suppressed intel that Putin expected a Clinton win;
- Laundered shoddy sources;
- Violated IC standards;
- Misled the public.
CIA careerists submitted heavy redactions/edits. They wanted to keep the truth hidden.
But the DNI has greater declass authority than any IC element, and doesn’t need their sign-off.
Gabbard released it; Trump backed maximum transparency.
The declassified documents show the Obama team “manufactured” an assessment they knew was false, to sell the lie that Putin colluded with Trump—working hand-in-glove with friendly media to undermine a sitting president.
Of course they wanted to keep this hidden.
Even CIA Director John Ratcliffe “strongly supported” the release despite internal pushback.
Translation: parts of the intel Deep State fought sunlight. Leadership sided with disclosure.
Elections really matter. That’s why they tried to prevent Trump’s election.
Democrats screamed “sources & methods.” Sen. Mark Warner called the release “desperate & irresponsible.”
Funny how “national security” always means hide the receipts when the receipts hurt them.
Trump on Obama: “He’s guilty… This was treason. They tried to steal the election.”
Speaker Mike Johnson: Congress may subpoena Obama over alleged coordination with intel to frame Trump as a Russian asset.
Meanwhile, @AGPamBondi has formed a DOJ strike force and convened a grand jury to pursue indictments tied to the hoax.
If the IC was weaponized against voters, accountability must be criminal, not just political.
Bottom line: The 2017 Russia ICA wasn’t intelligence — it was a coup attempt, rushed and rigged to smear Trump before he even took office.
The declassified docs are clear.
Which is why they tried to hide them, even now.
