NEWSMAX -- Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard told Newsmax that more documents will be released Wednesday that directly refute a statement issued earlier Tuesday by former President Barack Obama's camp denying his role in an alleged coup attempt against President Donald Trump
Gabbard joined "Rob Schmitt Tonight" on Tuesday, days after first announcing that she had provided the Department of Justice with "overwhelming evidence" that Obama and his national security team laid the groundwork for a "yearslong" Russia-connected "coup" against Trump.
The smoking gun, Gabbard argues, was a Dec. 9, 2016, meeting at the White House with several top National Security Council principals, the result of which created a new assessment "per the President's request" to detail "the tools Moscow used and actions it took to influence the 2016 election."
A spokesperson for Obama on Tuesday called the accusation "outrageous," adding that "nothing in the document issued last week undercuts the widely accepted conclusion that Russia worked to influence the 2016 presidential election but did not successfully manipulate any votes."
