In a fiery and historic appearance on Sunday Morning Futures, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard dropped what may go down as the most damning revelation in modern U.S. political history—a coordinated, treasonous conspiracy by top Obama-era officials to subvert the will of the American people and prevent President Trump from exercising the power he was duly elected to wield.
“This is not a Democrat or Republican issue,” Gabbard told Fox News host Maria Bartiromo. “This is about the integrity of our Democratic Republic. What we uncovered amounts to a years-long coup attempt against President Trump.”
At the heart of the scandal: declassified documents—over 100 of them—released this week, which Gabbard says clearly prove that former President Barack Obama, CIA Director John Brennan, DNI James Clapper, Hillary Clinton, James Comey, Susan Rice, and even then-Vice President Joe Biden spearheaded a bogus “Russia collusion” narrative. The motive? Block Trump from taking office and dismantling their power structure.
“There was no intelligence,” Gabbard emphasized, echoing former House Intel Chair Devin Nunes. “There never was. That’s what’s so damning. They fabricated intelligence—manufactured it—to justify weaponizing the intelligence community against a sitting U.S. president. That’s treason.”
The revelations dig deeper than politics. Gabbard explained how the intelligence community, under direct orders from Obama, pulled a presidential daily briefing in December 2016 that stated unequivocally there was no Russian interference in Trump’s election. Why? Because the next day, a new “narrative” was ordered. “Obama directed his ODNI to produce a report showing how—not if—Russia impacted the election,” she said. “That became the foundation for the witch hunt against President Trump.”
Bartiromo pressed the big question: Will anyone actually be held accountable?
Gabbard didn’t flinch. “We are making a criminal referral to the Department of Justice and the FBI,” she confirmed. “We already have whistleblowers coming forward—people disgusted by what they witnessed. And yes, there must be indictments.”
When asked if she expects prosecution, Gabbard said, “In my view, the evidence is there. This wasn’t just unethical—it was criminal.”
Bartiromo also turned a critical eye toward the judges who enabled the surveillance through the FISA courts—most notably Judge James Boasberg, who gave FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith a slap on the wrist for falsifying documents. “He’s still on the bench,” Bartiromo said, “and still obstructing Trump’s agenda.”
Gabbard didn’t mince words. “This is what people mean by the ‘Deep State,’” she said. “A network of bureaucrats, judges, and agency heads who believe they are above the will of the people. We must expose them all.”
As Gabbard pointed out, the Mueller and Durham probes either missed or ignored critical information—raising serious questions about whether those investigations were complicit in the cover-up. “The only conclusion I can come to,” Gabbard said, “is that they didn’t want the truth to come out.”
What happens next? Gabbard says more damning documents will be released next week and signaled that the DOJ—under Attorney General Pam Bondi—and FBI Director Kash Patel have a duty to pursue prosecution. “The future of our Republic depends on it,” she said. “If we don’t hold these people accountable, we’re telling the American people that elections don’t matter.”
In the shadow of economic revival and foreign policy strength under President Trump’s administration, the revelations from Gabbard’s office paint a stark contrast to the years of sabotage the president faced from day one. The conspiracy wasn’t just about targeting Trump—it was about gutting democracy.
And now, the American public is finally seeing what was hidden behind closed doors. The real question is: will justice be served?
