The US president has endorsed conducting a criminal investigation into the former Democratic leader over the Russiagate hoax
US President Donald Trump has posted an AI-generated video depicting former President Barack Obama being arrested and jailed. The post comes amid allegations that Obama and his senior officials had intentionally fabricated the Trump-Russia collusion narrative.
Last week, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard declassified over 100 pages of documents, which are described as "overwhelming evidence" that officials in the Obama administration manipulated intelligence to initiate the Russiagate investigation. She alleged that the aim was to delegitimize Trump's 2016 election win. According to Gabbard's memo, the officials involved included former CIA Director John Brennan, former DNI James Clapper, and Obama himself.
On Sunday, Trump shared a video on his Truth Social account featuring real footage of Obama and other Democratic leaders saying, "No one is above the law." The scene then shifts to an AI-generated sequence showing FBI agents handcuffing Obama in the Oval Office while Trump watches and laughs. The video ends with an animated Obama pacing in a jail cell. Trump also posted fake mugshots of Obama and members of his former cabinet under the caption "The Shady Bunch."
Trump endorsed the DNI's calls to investigate the former president, praising Gabbard and her team as "fantastic on prosecuting Obama and the 'thugs' who have just been unequivocally exposed on highest level Election Fraud." According to Gabbard, internal intelligence assessments in 2016 repeatedly found that Russia lacked both the capability and intent to influence the US election. These conclusions were later suppressed, she said, when Obama ordered a new intelligence assessment that blamed Russia for helping Trump defeat Hillary Clinton. This assessment was based on discredited sources such as the Steele Dossier, according to Gabbard.
"This was not intelligence gathering. It was narrative building," the DNI said, asserting that Obama officials leaked false claims to the press and politicized classified information. "Every person involved in this conspiracy must be investigated and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law," she stated.
Russia has consistently denied allegations that it interfered in the 2016 US election. The Kremlin has described the Russiagate affair as a politically motivated smear campaign intended to justify sanctions and worsen relations with Moscow.
