Joining me now to react is the Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard.
00:06
Director Gabbard, give me your response to what we heard from former President Obama there.
00:11
He's saying that none of this makes any sense, that this is a distraction. What do you say to that?
00:18
It's the art of deflection coming from former President Obama, as well as his
00:23
friends who are still in Congress today, and Senator Warner and Congressman Jim Himes,
00:28
really all basically saying that exact same statement, which doesn't actually address
00:34
the issue that was revealed in great detail in the over 100 documents that we released last week
00:39
and the documents that we will be releasing later this week that point to the undeniable fact that
00:45
you laid out in your introduction to this segment, is that the intelligence community had one
00:50
assessment, that Russia did not have the intent or capability to try to impact the outcome of the
00:56
U.S. election leading up to Election Day. The same assessment was made after Donald Trump was
01:03
elected by the American people as president in 2016, defeating Hillary Clinton. And it wasn't until
01:08
after that polled president's daily brief document that you referenced that the principles committee
01:15
was called in the National Security Council. And President Obama then directed then his Obama's
01:23
D.N.I., D.N.I., D.N.I., James Clapper, to lead the effort to create this new intelligence community
01:28
assessment that detailed not if, but how Moscow attempted to influence the outcome of the U.S. election.
01:38
So this is the thing that I think people should pay attention to, is neither the message from
01:42
President Obama's office, neither the statements coming from Democrats in Congress today and their
01:48
friends in the propaganda media. None of them are addressing this fact, that there was a shift,
01:53
180-degree shift, from the intelligence community's assessment leading up to the election to the
02:00
one that President Obama directed be produced after Donald Trump won the election that completely
02:07
contradicted those assessments that had come previously. The second thing I want to address
02:11
that's very important, Lara, is that in the clip that you played, you saw John Brennan, James Clapper,
02:18
James Comey stated with high confidence this January intelligence community assessment that they
02:24
drafted at the direction of President Obama. The fact is that they used already discredited
02:31
information like the Steele dossier. They knew it was discredited at that time, yet they used it as a
02:36
source for this document that they claimed to have high confidence in. They used intelligence that
02:40
some of these intelligence community professionals rejected previously because of the lack of credibility
02:46
and the lack of the ability to vet with any kind of confidence whether or not that information or
02:52
intelligence was accurate and could be used for an assessment. There's a long laundry list of facts
02:58
and intelligence reporting that directly contradict the statement coming from President Obama's office
03:04
and those who are trying to deflect away from what actually happened, which was after Donald Trump was
03:10
elected, led by President Obama, there was an effort to create a document that would serve as a
03:16
foundation for what would be a years-long coup against President Trump, therefore trying to subvert the
03:23
will of the American people who sent him to the White House in 2016.
03:28
Well, it's amazing that you are now releasing all of this. And Tulsi, I have to tell you, for those of us who
03:33
lived through it, thank you. I think it's great that we're getting this information out. You say there is more
03:39
information, there are more documents to be released. Anything you can tell us on that?
03:45
We will be releasing these documents shortly. In the wake of the release that we did last week, I'm very
03:51
encouraged by the fact that we have whistleblowers coming forward who are intelligence community professionals
03:57
who were there when this happened and who were disgusted by it and are heartened at the possibility and the hope
04:05
that the truth will see the light of day. And of course, the most important thing is that the American people
04:10
see accountability, which is why we are referring and have already sent all of the documents that we have
04:17
currently and any others that we get in the future to the Department of Justice to bring about that
04:22
accountability, to ensure that the integrity of our democratic republic exists, that the American
04:29
people can have faith and trust that who they vote for in our elections to be elected will actually be
04:35
respected by those who are leaving power. Amen to that. Well, Director Tulsi...
