A wave of headlines detail escalating accusations from former President Donald Trump and his allies, including Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, against former President Barack Obama and his administration.
Trump has repeatedly accused Obama of 'treason' and orchestrating a conspiracy to undermine his 2016 election victory through the Russia investigation, though he has provided no evidence. Gabbard has released declassified documents and called for prosecution of Obama-era officials, alleging they manufactured intelligence about Russian interference. Obama and his spokesperson have strongly rebuked these claims, calling them baseless and a distraction from other controversies.
The controversy has reignited partisan battles over the legitimacy of the Russia probe and the use of intelligence for political purposes.
