The most corrupt, America hating President in our history. I've always believed that the Russia Hoax began at the top of the Democratic Party of Lying Jackasses. Now we have confirmation. No one is above the law. Time to perp march this arrogant, smarmy Marxist dunce to prison.
Records unsealed Friday trace the origin of this deception to a December 2016 gathering of the National Security Council. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard outlined the “manufactured intelligence” that emerged from this presidential confab on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures.”
“The tasks coming out of that meeting were coming from President Obama directing the intelligence community — then-ODNI [James R.] Clapper — to produce a document, to produce an intelligence assessment, that detailed not if, but how, Moscow affected the election that had already occurred, electing Donald Trump to the presidency,” she said.
Previously, America’s spies were meticulous about ensuring their analysis “doesn’t mislead the reader to believe that the [intelligence community] currently has information indicating Russia has a known intent to influence the elections,” according to an FBI expert’s email.
A statement to that effect would have appeared in the president’s daily briefing hours before Mr. Obama’s leadership team assembled. After receiving “new guidance” from the top, however, the FBI agent deleted the line.
Despite the lack of reliable intelligence suggesting Russia affected the election, NSC meeting participants agreed to sanction Russia anyway. Internally, they justified the shift in narrative by referencing “new” evidence that turned out to be nothing more than fairy tales cooked up by Hillary Clinton’s campaign.
“After months of investigation into this matter, the facts reveal this new assessment was based on information that was known by those involved to be manufactured i.e. the Steele Dossier or deemed as not credible,” the DNI reported in a written summary of the newly released papers.
To some, these revelations aren’t surprising. Internet sleuths assumed Mr. Obama was behind what happened based on fragmentary hints stashed deep within inspector general reports and freedom of information releases. Until now, intelligence officials successfully concealed their hanky-panky from the broader public through redactions and a cozy relationship with “journalists” eager to publish fable as fact, as long as it undermines Mr. Trump.
Ms. Gabbard said she will declassify even more this week to shed light on the steps former government officials took to cover their tracks. She also made criminal referrals to the Justice Department.
As a minimum standard of accountability, any current federal employee who participated in this underhanded effort must be fired and barred from holding a security clearance.
The judiciary, especially in the District of Columbia, is so thoroughly captured by liberal activism that a reckoning is improbable. Deeper disclosure, along with a thorough housecleaning at Langley and the Hoover Building, is the next best thing.
Releasing documents, even if embarrassing to the government, is always the right move. Mr. Trump shouldn’t be afraid of trusting the American people to know truths bureaucrats are desperate to bury.
Declassified docs confirm Obama manipulated intelligence to sabotage Trump
