A major threat to our Country!!!https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/114893984552850709
The post comes after Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard made certain contentious and classified documents public.
From July 18-21, Gabbard declassified, and publicly released over 100 pages of documents, including memos and internal assessments, alleging the Obama administration manipulated intelligence in late 2016. What caused this furoreThe office of then-DNI James Clapper on December 7, 2016, stated, "We have no evidence of cyber manipulation of election infrastructure intended to alter results" and "Foreign adversaries did not use cyberattacks on election infrastructure to alter the US Presidential election outcome." Obama's Presidential Daily Brief the next day merely mentioned the "likely" hacking of an Illinois voter registration database, which had "unsuccessfully attempted" in other states and had no bearing on the electoral total.The brief's draft said, "Criminal activity also failed to reach the scale and sophistication necessary to change election outcomes."But once the FBI, under Director James Comey, declared it would "dissent" from the draft's conclusions "based on some new guidance," those results were hidden.Clapper then led an alternative intelligence report asserting that the Kremlin manipulated the presidential election to Trump's advantage and planned the hacking of DNC emails, thousands of which were ultimately made public by Wikileaks.
Several officials, including CIA Director John Brennan, Secretary of State John Kerry, and FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, gathered at the White House on Dec. 9, 2016, where Obama began 'tasking' each to look into 'Russia Election Meddling.' Attorney General Loretta Lynch, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, National Security Advisor Susan Rice, and White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonogh were also present at the meeting.
How Obama's intelligence agencies gradually changed course By early January, 2017, former president, Barack Obama, ordered the CIA, FBI, NSA, and DHS to produce a new intelligence assessment that included detailed information about Russia's involvement in the US presidential race. This assessment ultimately included the now-debunked dossier created by former MI6 spy Christopher Steele.Later that same day, an email from Clapper's executive assistant stated that the new intelligence assessment needed to outline the "tools Moscow used and actions it took to influence the 2016 election."Later, intelligence community leakers told the media that Obama voiced public concerns about hacks impacting the vote-counting process and that officials had "a high level of confidence" that Russian President Vladimir Putin was personally involved in the "U.S. Election Hack."According to a National Security Council document, the participants in the White House meeting also "agreed to recommend sanctioning of certain members of the Russian military intelligence and foreign intelligence chains of command responsible for cyber operations as a response to cyber activity that attempted to influence or interfere with U.S. elections, if such activity meets the requirements."
The Intelligence Community Assessment of January, 2017 According to Gabbard, the end result was an Intelligence Community Assessment on January 7, 2017, which "directly contradicted the IC assessments that were made throughout the previous six months."CIA Director John Ratcliffe published a shocking analysis of the 2016 assessment earlier this month, concluding that Clapper, Brennan, and Comey purposefully tainted it for "possible political motive[s]."Later, more than eight years ago, the Trump Justice Department opened an investigation into Brennan and Comey for possible criminal offences connected to the preparation of that evaluation.The data will be sent to the Department of Justice "to deliver the accountability that President Trump, his family, and the American people deserve," Gabbard said in a statement.
Gabbard's declassification bombshell The declassification is based on shocking new information unearthed by an Office of the Director of National Intelligence whistleblower who told Clapper that there was "no indication of a Russian threat to directly manipulate the actual vote count through cyber means." The National Intelligence Officer for Cyber pushed the whistleblower to believe the conclusions of the later Obama intelligence assessment, which included Moscow's preference for Trump.The whistleblower's superior told him, "You need to trust me on this," referring to reports that the informant was "not allowed to see," most likely the Steele dossier.
Whistleblower testimony challenges 2017 assessment The whistleblower wrote in one of their emails, "As for the 2017 ICA's judgement of a decisive Russian preference for then-candidate Donald Trump." Based on the material at hand and my professional analytical opinion, I was unable to concur in good conscience.The documents claim an earlier finding (around September-December 2016) which showed no evidence of direct Russian cyber interference, but Gabbard says intelligence officials suppressed it in favor of a new assessment accusing Russia of meddling to aid Trump.As of Friday, July 18, Gabbard has called for prosecution against Obama-era officials, namely, James Clapper, John Brennan, Susan Rice, Andrew McCabe, and the man himself, after alleged 'treasonous' intelligence interference.

Peace was never West's goal in Ukraine, says Russia, accusing it of fuelling war by arming Kyiv
Peace talks and a settlement in Ukraine have never been on the real agenda of the West, Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Saturday, in her first comments on negotiations since Russian and Ukrainian officials held talks on Wednesday. read more File- Flames and smoke billow from buildings during mass Russian drones and missile strikes on the Ukraine's capital Kyiv on July 4, 2025, amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine. (Photo: OLEKSII FILIPPOV/AFP) Russia has accused the Western nations of never seriously seeking peace in Ukraine, instead charging them with prolonging the conflict through continued military support for Kyiv 'Peace talks and a settlement in Ukraine have never been on the real agenda of the West,' said Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on Saturday, her first remarks since direct talks between Russian and Ukrainian officials earlier in the week. 'If the West truly wanted peace, it would stop supplying weapons to Kyiv,' she said, as quoted by the TASS news agency. Zakharova had previously declined to comment during her regular Thursday briefing. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The criticism was echoed by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov, who reiterated that while Moscow remains open to negotiations, achieving Russia's military and political objectives remains a core priority. 'The main thing for us is to achieve our goals. Our goals are clear,' Peskov told state television. He emphasised that President Vladimir Putin is committed to a peaceful resolution but acknowledged that the process would be 'long and difficult.' Russia has long insisted that any peace agreement must include Ukraine's withdrawal from four regions Moscow annexed in 2022—territories it does not fully control—as well as Kyiv's formal renunciation of NATO membership and acceptance of strict limits on its armed forces. These demands have been flatly rejected by Ukraine and its Western backers. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Saturday that Kyiv had proposed a new round of talks this week. While Russian state media confirmed discussions were ongoing, no date has been finalised, though Istanbul is expected to remain the host city. The diplomatic developments come amid heightened U.S. pressure on Russia. President Donald Trump recently warned Moscow that it has 50 days to agree to a ceasefire or face 'severe tariffs.' Trump also announced plans to step up military support to Ukraine, including advanced Patriot air defence systems, and hinted at plans for European allies to buy large quantities of US arms to replenish Ukraine's supplies. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Despite the proposed peace efforts, hostilities have continued on the ground. Russia has intensified its drone strikes in recent days, with Ukraine reporting one of the highest overnight barrages this year. Ukraine's air force said it downed 18 of 57 Shahed-type drones launched by Russia overnight into Sunday, while another seven drones went off radar. Civilian casualties were reported in both Zaporizhzhia and Kharkiv regions. In Zaporizhzhia, two women were injured when a drone struck their home, while two others were wounded in Kharkiv after a drone hit a residential building, local officials said.

Indian firm says it shipped non-military explosives to Russia
NEW DELHI, - An Indian firm that shipped $1.4 million worth of an explosive compound with military uses to Russia in December said on Saturday it complies with Indian rules and the substance it had shipped was for civilian industrial purposes. Indian firm says it shipped non-military explosives to Russia Reuters reported on July 24 that Ideal Detonators Private Limited shipped the compound, known as HMX or octogen, to two Russian explosives manufacturers despite U.S. threats to impose sanctions on any entity supporting Russia's Ukraine war effort. One of the Russian companies listed in Indian customs data as receiving the compound is the explosives manufacturer Promsintez. An official at Ukraine's SBU security service has said the Russian company has ties to the military and that Ukraine launched a drone attack in April against a Promsintez-owned factory. Promsintez did not respond to a request for comment. Ideal Detonators said in an emailed response to Reuters that the material it shipped was not military grade. "The shipment ... is for industrial activity and it's a civil explosive," the company said. The U.S. government has identified HMX as "critical for Russia's war effort" and has warned financial institutions against facilitating any sales of the substance to Moscow. The U.S. Treasury Department has the authority to sanction those who sell HMX and similar substances to Russia, sanctions lawyers have said. HMX is widely used in missile and torpedo warheads, rocket motors, exploding projectiles and plastic-bonded explosives for advanced military systems, according to the Pentagon's Defense Technical Information Center and related defense research programs. The compound also has some limited civilian applications in mining and other industrial activities. This article was generated from an automated news agency feed without modifications to text.
