Corporate Media Blackout on Tulsi Gabbard’s Bombshell Criminal Referral for Obama
Frank Bergman
July 22, 2025
The corporate media has been eerily silent following Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s bombshell criminal referral for former President Barack Obama and several of his top administration officials.
As Slay News reported, Gabbard is accusing the Obama administration of orchestrating a “years-long coup” against President Donald Trump following his 2016 election win.
In a declassified report released Friday, Gabbard revealed “overwhelming evidence” suggesting that top Obama officials used “manufactured and politicized intelligence” to set the stage for the controversial Trump–Russia collusion investigation.
Gabbard sent a criminal referral to the Department of Justice (DOJ) for several Obama-era officials involved in the coup.
Despite the gravity of these revelations, corporate media outlets largely ignored or downplayed Gabbard’s explosive claims.
However, the media blackout may come as no surprise to many, considering many of those outlets helped to promote the Democrats’ anti-Trump Russia Hoax.
ABC News and NBC News failed to cover the story at all.
Meanwhile, CBS News offered only a minimal segment during its Sunday show “Face the Nation.”
However, the show failed to cover the fact and instead featured Rep. Jim Himes (D-CT) dismissing Gabbard’s allegations as a “dangerous lie.”
Himes further attacked Gabbard’s suggestion of “treason,” saying:
“There is not a judge [in] the land that will treat this with anything other than laughter.”
Jorge Bonilla, a NewsBusters analyst, expressed shock over how NBC’s “Meet the Press” and ABC’s “This Week” ignored the story.
“It wasn’t a bipartisan panel segment or an interview with Gabbard,” Bonilla wrote, highlighting CBS’s Margaret Brennan inviting Rep. Himes to firefight the release and downplay Gabbard’s findings.
On CNN, Jake Tapper discussed Gabbard’s report, but, unsurprisingly, sought to downplay the scandal by interviewing Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO).
Crow accused Gabbard of attempting to win favor with Trump.
The Democrat congressman also tried to deflect from the revelations, suggesting that Gabbard was using the report to distract from the Jeffrey Epstein case.
Meanwhile, on MSNBC, Ayman Mohyeldin dismissed Gabbard’s report, calling it a “baseless distraction” from the Trump administration’s challenges.
Notably, former CIA Director John Brennan, a prominent critic of Trump, slammed Gabbard’s findings as “misrepresentations” and “ludicrous” during his appearance on MSNBC anchor Nicolle Wallace’s “Deadline: White House.”
The New York Times reported on Gabbard’s claims but framed them as politically motivated.
Instead, the Times cited Democrat condemnation of her findings.
The report cited Rep. Jim Himes and Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA), top Democrats involved in the intelligence committees, who derided Gabbard’s allegations.
Despite the media blackout, Gabbard’s findings are hard to ignore.
The declassified documents reveal that before the 2016 election, intelligence agencies consistently assessed that Russia was not attempting to interfere in the U.S. election through cyber means.
In fact, no evidence was found that Russia tried to directly influence the vote count.
However, in the months after Trump’s victory, the narrative shifted, suggesting that Russian President Vladimir Putin wanted to help Trump win the election.
Gabbard revealed that this false claim was politically motivated and unsupported by any new intelligence.
As Gabbard told Fox News’s Maria Bartiromo:
“Creating this piece of manufactured intelligence that claims that Russia had helped Donald Trump get elected contradicted every other assessment that had been made previously…
“The effect of what President Obama and his senior national security team did was subvert the will of the American people, undermining our democratic republic and enacting what would be essentially a years-long coup against President Trump, who was duly elected by the American people.”
Gabbard’s declassification implicates key Obama administration figures in the conspiracy, including James Clapper (then-Director of National Intelligence), John Brennan (then-CIA Director), James Comey (former FBI Director), and Susan Rice (former National Security Adviser).
These individuals, now frequently featured as analysts on CNN and MSNBC, have come under intense scrutiny as Gabbard’s findings paint a damning picture of how the Obama administration manipulated intelligence to undermine a democratically elected president.
This latest bombshell is yet another example of how political elites and establishment media are working in tandem to suppress the truth about the real forces at play in the Trump-Russia investigation.
The Trump-supporting public, already disillusioned with mainstream media bias, will likely view this as more proof of the deep state’s interference in American democracy.
In the midst of growing public distrust in the integrity of U.S. intelligence and government institutions, Gabbard’s revelations are both a warning and a call to action: Americans deserve answers, and the truth about the deep state’s covert activities must come to light.

Maine Center For Public Interest Reporting – Three Part Series: A CRITICAL LOOK AT MAINE’S WIND ACT
******** IF LINKS BELOW DON'T WORK, GOOGLE THEM*********
(excerpts) From Part 1 – On Maine’s Wind Law “Once the committee passed the wind energy bill on to the full House and Senate, lawmakers there didn’t even debate it. They passed it unanimously and with no discussion. House Majority Leader Hannah Pingree, a Democrat from North Haven, says legislators probably didn’t know how many turbines would be constructed in Maine if the law’s goals were met." . – Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting, August 2010 https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-power-bandwagon-hits-bumps-in-the-road-3/From Part 2 – On Wind and Oil Yet using wind energy doesn’t lower dependence on imported foreign oil. That’s because the majority of imported oil in Maine is used for heating and transportation. And switching our dependence from foreign oil to Maine-produced electricity isn’t likely to happen very soon, says Bartlett. “Right now, people can’t switch to electric cars and heating – if they did, we’d be in trouble.” So was one of the fundamental premises of the task force false, or at least misleading?" https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/wind-swept-task-force-set-the-rules/From Part 3 – On Wind-Required New Transmission Lines Finally, the building of enormous, high-voltage transmission lines that the regional electricity system operator says are required to move substantial amounts of wind power to markets south of Maine was never even discussed by the task force – an omission that Mills said will come to haunt the state.“If you try to put 2,500 or 3,000 megawatts in northern or eastern Maine – oh, my god, try to build the transmission!” said Mills. “It’s not just the towers, it’s the lines – that’s when I begin to think that the goal is a little farfetched.” https://www.pinetreewatchdog.org/flaws-in-bill-like-skating-with-dull-skates/
