Barack Obama’s role in the unfolding of the “Russiagate” saga reveals a troubling truth about his administration. New evidence shows that Obama not only endorsed dubious CIA claims about Russia’s alleged interference in the 2016 election but did so well before the intelligence community’s official assessment was finalized. This orchestrated narrative has been the backbone of an anti-Trump campaign, and it raises serious questions about the Obama administration’s integrity and motives.
From the very start, Obama’s statements indicated he had an agenda. In mid-December 2016, just weeks after Donald Trump’s victory, Obama was publicly backing a CIA narrative that suggested Vladimir Putin had meddled in the election to boost Trump. This was at a time when the intelligence community was still drafting assessments, indicating Obama wasn’t working from a position of factual clarity but rather from a preconceived notion that fed into a wider political agenda. It’s shocking that a sitting president would endorse claims that hadn’t yet been substantiated by facts, especially given how those claims would be used to undermine the legitimacy of a duly elected president.
Smoking gun? Obama endorsed bogus CIA claims on Trump and Putin before analysis was even finished
Before the intelligence community assessment that he ordered was even finished, Obama made public comments endorsing leaks claiming that the CIA's conclusion was that Putin had…

Let’s not overlook the role of leaks and misinformation in this drama. Anonymous sources within the intelligence community fed the media a steady stream of rumors, building a case against Trump while simultaneously smearing all who supported him. The media, ever eager to push a narrative that harms conservatives, devoured these leaks without question, making them the gospel truth while conveniently ignoring dissenting voices. They failed to report that even before the influential October 2016 assessment, intelligence officials had expressed doubts about the narrative. Instead, like loyal lapdogs, they parroted whatever narrative was handed down from above.
The hypocrisy is glaring. Obama, who once touted transparency and accountability, now finds himself buried in a quagmire of lies and accusations. His administration called for “intelligence assessments” to substantiate claims, yet in practice, he emphasized conclusions without clear evidence. This conduct not only undermines the integrity of American intelligence but also exposes an alarming willingness to weaponize those very institutions against political opponents. It begs the question: how many other truths have been sacrificed at the altar of political expediency in the name of the greater good?
Meanwhile, the recent revelations regarding the infamous Steele Dossier only add more weight to this narrative of deception. These reports show how Obama’s administration, particularly figures like John Brennan, prioritized political narratives over factual analysis, pushing them even as dissenting opinions within their ranks surfaced. This is not the behavior of agents committed to truth; rather, it reflects a concerted effort to undermine Trump’s presidency using anything at their disposal—including a fabricated story grounded in shoddy research.
It’s time for Americans to wake up. This isn’t just about Trump or Obama. It’s about the integrity of our democracy and the lengths to which those in power will go to maintain control. When a former president can publicly endorse unverified intelligence to bolster a narrative that fits his political goals, it doesn’t just reflect incompetence—it signals a betrayal of the trust that the American people place in their leaders. Are we willing to sit idly by while our nation’s institutions become tools for political warfare? Or will we demand accountability for the actions of those who sought to manipulate the very foundations upon which our democracy stands?
