A wave of headlines has erupted after Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declassified documents she claims reveal that Obama administration officials 'manufactured' intelligence to frame Donald Trump as a Russian asset during the 2016 election. Gabbard and President Trump have accused Obama and his team of orchestrating a 'treasonous conspiracy,' calling for investigations and even prosecution of former officials. Critics, including former intelligence and national security officials, have dismissed these claims as exaggerated or baseless, warning that the declassified documents do not support the allegations. The controversy has fueled partisan tensions, with Trump supporters demanding accountability while others warn of dangerous disinformation and political distraction. The Justice Department has announced a task force to investigate the claims, even as experts and media outlets caution that the narrative is being used to rewrite the history of Russian interference in the 2016 election.
