Tulsi Gabbard, the director of national intelligence, has called for Barack Obama and former senior US national security officials to be prosecuted after accusing them of a “treasonous conspiracy” intended to show that Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential election win was due to Russian interference.
She said Obama and senior officials in his administration had “[laid] the groundwork for … a years-long coup” against Trump after his victory over Hillary Clinton by “manufacturing intelligence” to suggest that Russia had tried to influence the election. That included using a dossier prepared by a British intelligence analyst, Christopher Steele, that they knew to be unreliable, Gabbard claimed.
The post-election intelligence estimates contrasted with findings reached before the election, which indicated that Russia probably was not trying to interfere. In extraordinary comments calling for prosecutions, she added: “The information we are releasing today clearly shows there was a treasonous conspiracy in 2016 committed by officials at the highest level of our government.

Bailing out the banks to avoid a financial collapse is the correct solution. It wasn’t Obama who allowed banks to become this careless with their money.
This drone bombing argument is a red flag you’re clueless about the entire presidency. Bush was getting soldiers killed, drone tech evolved. Why wouldn’t you use drones to reduce soldier’s casualties? 150,000 soldiers at the start of his presidency dropped to 20,000. Anyone who thinks Obama is a warmonger genuinely doesn’t remember Russia/Georgia and has no idea what they are talking about. At all.
His entire presidency was bogged down by Republican bullshit. Obamacare being the prime victim. This is not the Obamacare he wanted.
You’re literally parroting Republican talking points and you’re obscenely incorrect about them.
Obama had a supermajority for the first two years of his first term. The D’s could have done anything yet did nothing. Then after they lost majorities they decided it was time to push their agenda but then had to make tons of concessions to Rs. Its either shitty governing or deliberatly failing to deliver policies the people wanted.
They passed the ACA. It could have been done a lot better, absolutely. But it still did away with things like pre-existing conditions and provided health insurance to millions who previously had none.
They created the CFPB with the Dodds-Frank act. The GOP has spent years since trying to kill it, but it still exists and the point stands.
That’s a far cry from “doing nothing”. Or did you actually mean “I, personally, can’t remember those years so I’m just going to say they did nothing.”?
