Obama administration's new evidence reveals Trump labeled as Russian pawn
In a shocking revelation, newly declassified documents and reports released in mid-2025 suggest that high-ranking officials in the Obama administration, including James Clapper, John Brennan, and James Comey, may have used an unverified dossier to probe and brief about Donald Trump. This dossier, originally commissioned by Hillary Clinton's campaign, was considered by intelligence officials as unverified and dubious, yet it was utilized to justify investigations and briefings against Trump.
The allegations extend to claims that this effort amounted to a conspiracy to defraud the government and deprivation of rights under the color of law. The argument is that knowingly false or fabricated intelligence was used to obstruct or impair government operations, such as the legitimacy of the 2016 election and Trump’s lawful presidency.
According to the reports, on July 28 and Aug. 3, 2016, then-CIA Director John Brennan briefed President Obama and other top officials about Clinton's plan to vilify Trump. This was followed by the FBI investigation of Trump being escalated, and the collusion lie was propagated.
The dossier's creator, Christopher Steele, was fired for lying, but this information was concealed to obtain surveillance warrants on a Trump campaign associate, Carter Page. The FBI director, Comey, traveled to Trump Tower armed with the dossier that deceptively alleged Russian interference in the campaign. Comey confronted the president-elect with salacious accusations in the dossier that the bureau knew were untrue.
Former FBI Director James Comey and his acolytes launched a dilating investigation of Trump, dubbed "Crossfire Hurricane," and weaponized their authority to persecute him. Clapper leaked the dossier to CNN.
The replacement narrative claimed that Russia intervened in the 2016 election to help Trump win the presidency. This narrative was perpetuated by the new Intelligence Community Assessment, ordered by Obama, which was intended to undermine the President's Daily Briefing and perpetuate the Trump-Russia collusion fiction.
It should be noted that these are highly politicized and legally complex claims involving intelligence assessments and internal government decision-making. Terms such as "treasonous conspiracy" carry very high legal standards and have not necessarily resulted in judicial findings at this time. The controversy reflects ongoing debates over the legitimacy and conduct of intelligence and law enforcement activities surrounding the 2016 election and Trump’s presidency.

- The media's coverage of the 2016 elections and Trump's presidency has been heavily influenced by the unraveling scandal surrounding the use of an unverified dossier to probe Trump, which was originally commissioned by Hillary Clinton's campaign.
- The controversy over the use of this dubious dossier in policy-and-legislation decisions, such as the FBI's investigation of Trump and the surveillance of his campaign associates, is a significant general-news story that continues to unfold, with new sources revealing more details about the roles of high-ranking officials like James Clapper, John Brennan, and James Comey.
- The allegations of a conspiracy to defraud the government and deprivation of rights under the color of law, which extend to claims of knowingly false or fabricated intelligence being used to obstruct government operations, also raise questions about crime-and-justice and the ethics of politics and politics as a whole.
