From Whisper to Roar: Tulsi Gabbard Unveils Whistleblowers Claiming Deep-State Conspiracy Against Trump
What began as faint murmurs within intelligence circles has now erupted into explosive allegations that could shake the foundations of American politics.
Tulsi Gabbard, the Director of National Intelligence, revealed on Sunday that multiple insiders from the intelligence community are stepping forward with what they say is evidence of a coordinated effort to undermine former President Donald Trump after his 2016 victory.
Speaking on Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo, Gabbard described a “coup attempt” allegedly orchestrated by officials tied to the Obama administration—
angry and unsettled by Hillary Clinton’s unexpected defeat. “Whistleblowers who once operated in the shadows are now coming forward,” Gabbard said. “They are as outraged as the American people and demand justice.”
Her announcement follows the release of sensitive intelligence memos and internal communications that, according to Gabbard, expose a deliberate campaign to fabricate ties between the Trump campaign and Russia—a move that triggered the sprawling “Russiagate” probe. Gabbard asserts these documents are being handed over to the Department of Justice to fuel investigations aimed at accountability.
“We’re delivering all relevant materials to the DOJ,” she confirmed. “The goal is simple: justice must be served.”
Labeling the entire scheme a “treasonous conspiracy,” Gabbard insisted that no one should be above the law. “Indictments are necessary. Power and position won’t shield those who participated,” she declared.
Though Gabbard refrained from explicitly naming former President Obama, her pointed remarks have been widely interpreted as implicating his administration—a narrative long promoted by Trump and his allies who accuse the prior administration of weaponizing intelligence agencies against the incoming president.
Renewed Attention on the Durham Investigation
Gabbard’s claims have reignited interest in the work of Special Counsel John Durham, whose probe into FBI conduct during the Trump-Russia investigation wrapped up in 2023 with limited prosecutions. The most prominent conviction was that of former FBI lawyer Kevin Clinesmith, who pleaded guilty to altering a key email related to surveillance warrants.
While many critics dismissed Durham’s inquiry as insufficient, Trump supporters hailed it as confirmation of a systemic effort to undermine the president.
The Enduring Divide Over Russiagate
The Russiagate saga remains a deeply polarizing topic. Supporters of Trump view the entire affair as a politically motivated attack, while others see it as a necessary probe into legitimate foreign interference concerns.
Once a Democratic congresswoman and 2020 presidential contender, Tulsi Gabbard has become one of the most outspoken critics of both the Democratic establishment and intelligence agencies. Her appointment as DNI during Trump’s second term marked a significant shift in her political path and amplified her influence on this controversial issue.
Her recent statements signal that the Trump administration intends to push the Russiagate controversy beyond headlines and back into legal arenas.
Conclusion
With Tulsi Gabbard’s revelations and whistleblowers emerging from the intelligence community, old wounds could be reopened, and a fresh chapter of the Russiagate saga may soon play out in courtrooms rather than news cycles. As the 2026 midterm elections loom, the battle over truth, justice, and political power remains as fierce and unresolved as ever.
