On January 6, 2017, just days before President Trump took office, DNI Clapper unveiled the Obama-directed politicized assessment, a gross weaponization of intelligence that laid the groundwork for a years-long coup intended to subvert President Trump’s entire presidency. According to whistleblower emails shared with us today, we know Clapper and Brennan used the baseless discredited Steele Dossier as a source to push this false narrative in the intelligence assessment.

Contrary to the blatantly false and slanderous accusations being made against me by Members of Congress and their friends in the propaganda media, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence has and will continue to take action under my statutory authorities to secure our nation and ensure the integrity of our elections. My response to Congress:
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
🚨Newly declassified Top Secret emails sent on December 22, 2016 complying with President Obama's order to create the manufactured January 2017 ICA about Russia expose how DNI James Clapper demanded the IC fall in line behind the Russia Hoax. Clapper admits that it was a "team sport" that required "compromise on our 'normal modalities'". Read for yourself below:

🧵 Today I’m launching ODNI 2.0 – the first step toward bringing about transformational change that is based on cutting bloated bureaucracy, rooting out deep state actors, and restoring mission focus. When implementation is complete, ODNI will be more agile, efficient, and effective, reducing our organization by more than 40%, saving taxpayers $700+ million per year.
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
ODNI was created 20 years ago because of the egregious intelligence failures of the Islamist terror attack on 9/11, to integrate and oversee the Intelligence Community and provide timely, accurate intelligence that protects national security. Two decades later, bloat and inefficiency are rampant across ODNI, and the Intelligence Community is rife with abuse of power, unauthorized intel leaks, and politicized weaponization of intelligence.
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
For too long, bad actors have exploited and politicized our Intelligence Community to drive agendas that put their own interests ahead of the interests of the American people. Today, we are announcing serious change to ensure the IC fulfills its responsibility to the American people and the U.S. Constitution.
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
We are eliminating wasteful spending to ensure ODNI is a responsible steward of American tax dollars, slashing redundant functions and inefficiency, and focusing on our core mission.
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
Bringing about transparency, accountability, and working to end the weaponization of intelligence is essential for the Intelligence Community to begin to earn the American people’s trust. We are eliminating elements that do not support our mission and have acted as hubs of politicization and pushing partisan priorities into what should be apolitical, unbiased intelligence products.
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
.@ODNIgov is also making critical investments in @POTUS's national intelligence priorities. Our National Counterterrorism Center is partnering with law enforcement to secure our borders and communities, and the National Counterintelligence and Security Center is focused on fulfilling the counterintelligence mission.
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
ODNI 2.0 is the start of a new era focused on serving our country, upholding the principles enshrined in our Constitution, working to end weaponization and politicization of intelligence, and refocusing on our core mission: ensuring the safety, security, and freedom of the American people.

@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
Over the past few months, I’ve been working closely with our partners in the UK, alongside @POTUS and @VP, to ensure Americans' private data remains private and our Constitutional rights and civil liberties are protected. As a result, the UK has agreed to drop its mandate for Apple to provide a "back door" that would have enabled access to the protected encrypted data of American citizens and encroached on our civil liberties.

NEW: Whistleblower reveals how they were threatened by a supervisor to go along with the Obama-directed Russia hoax “intelligence” assessment, even though they knew it was not credible or accurate. The Whistleblower refused. Yesterday we released the Whistleblower's firsthand account of what happened in the crafting of the January 2017 ICA, their yearslong efforts to expose the egregious manipulation and manufacturing of intelligence carried out at the highest levels of government and the IC (detailed in our previous releases) and how they were repeatedly ignored. Thank you to this courageous whistleblower, and others who are coming forward now, putting their own well-being on the line to defend our democratic republic, ensure the American people know the truth, and hold those responsible accountable.

🧵 New evidence has emerged of the most egregious weaponization and politicization of intelligence in American history. Per President @realDonaldTrump's directive, I have declassified a @HouseIntel oversight majority staff report that exposes how the Obama Administration manufactured the January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment that they knew was false, promoting the LIE that Vladimir Putin and the Russian government helped President Trump win the 2016 election. In doing so, they conspired to subvert the will of the American people, working with their partners in the media to promote the lie, in order to undermine the legitimacy of President Trump, essentially enacting a years-long coup against him. Here are the top Obama Russia Hoax lies debunked by today's release: 🔗 https://www.dni.gov/files/ODNI/documents/DIG/DIG-Declassified-HPSCI-Report-Manufactured-Russia-Hoax-July2025.pdf
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
LIE: Putin and the Russian Government helped Trump win the 2016 election TRUTH: President Obama, former Director of the CIA John Brennan, and others fabricated the Russia Hoax, suppressed intelligence showing Putin was preparing for a Clinton victory, manufactured findings from shoddy sources, disobeyed IC standards, and knowingly lied to the American people.
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
LIE: The fabricated Steele Dossier was not used as a source in the Obama Administration’s January 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment of the November 2016 election TRUTH: Not only did CIA Director Brennan, FBI Director Comey, DNI Clapper and others include the Steele Dossier in the 2017 ICA, they overruled senior Intel officials who warned them it was fabricated and should not be used.
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
LIE: The Obama Administration’s January ICA was an independent Intelligence Community product, produced with apolitical analysis. TRUTH: Obama ordered the Intelligence Community to create an Intelligence Community Assessment they knew was false, promoting a contrived narrative, with the intent of undermining the legitimacy and power of a duly elected President of the United States, Donald Trump.
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
Together, the @ODNIgov records released on Friday, the @TheJusticeDept's June 2018 report known as the “Clinton annex" released earlier this week, and the @HouseIntel oversight report we released today confirm what many Americans have known: The Russia Hoax was a lie that was knowingly created by the Obama Administration to undermine the legitimacy and power of the duly elected President of the United States, Donald Trump.

🧵 Americans will finally learn the truth about how in 2016, intelligence was politicized and weaponized by the most powerful people in the Obama Administration to lay the groundwork for what was essentially a years-long coup against President @realDonaldTrump, subverting the will of the American people and undermining our democratic republic. Here’s how:
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
It has come to my attention that Washington Post reporter @nakashimae appears to be actively harassing ODNI staff. Instead of reaching out to my press office, she is calling high level Intelligence Officers from a burner phone, refusing to identify herself, lying about the fact that she works for the Washington Post, and then demanding they share sensitive information. Apparently, publishing leaked classified material wasn't enough for the Washington Post, so now they’ve decided to go after the Intelligence professionals charged to protect it. This is a clear political op by the same outlet and the same reporter who harassed and stalked my family in Hawaii. This kind of deranged behavior reflects a media establishment so desperate to sabotage @POTUS’s successful agenda that they’ve abandoned even a facade of journalistic integrity and ethics. The Washington Post should be ashamed, and they should put an end to this immediately.
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
The dishonest media is intentionally taking my testimony out of context and spreading fake news as a way to manufacture division. America has intelligence that Iran is at the point that it can produce a nuclear weapon within weeks to months, if they decide to finalize the assembly. President Trump has been clear that can’t happen, and I agree. My full testimony below:
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
James Comey just issued a call to action to murder the President of the United States. As a former FBI Director and someone who spent most of his career prosecuting mobsters and gangsters, he knew exactly what he was doing and must be held accountable under the full force of the law. We fully support the Secret Service investigation into Comey’s threat on President Trump’s life.
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
Nearly 60 years after the tragic assassination of Senator Robert F. Kennedy, the American people will, for the first time, have the opportunity to review the federal government’s investigation thanks to @POTUS leadership and commitment to maximum transparency. https://www.archives.gov/rfk
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
Thank you for your work. We are already on this, and look forward to declassifying this and other instances of the government being weaponized against Americans. Under President Trump’s leadership, @ODNIgov will bring transparency and accountability to end the weaponization of our intelligence community.
@DNIGabbard - DNI Tulsi Gabbard
This behavior is unacceptable and those involved WILL be held accountable. These disgusting chat groups were immediately shut down when @POTUS issued his EO ending the DEI insanity the Biden Admin was obsessed with. Our IC must be focused on our core mission: ensuring the safety, security, and freedom of the American people.
