Former President Donald Trump has reignited his longstanding feud with Barack Obama, accusing him and his administration of 'treason' and orchestrating a 'coup' to undermine Trump's 2016 election victory.
These explosive claims, amplified by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's release of declassified documents, allege that Obama officials manufactured intelligence about Russian interference. Obama and his spokesperson have strongly denied the accusations, calling them a 'weak attempt at distraction' amid other controversies. The intelligence community and bipartisan Senate reports have previously concluded that Russia did interfere in the 2016 election, but found no evidence of a coup by Obama.
The renewed attacks have polarized political figures and experts, raising concerns about the politicization of intelligence and the rule of law.
