Tulsi Bombshell Intel Reveals Whistleblower Threat
Listen tothis article
In breaking news, shockwaves are rippling through Washington, D.C., as Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard has revealed bombshell intelligence regarding threats made to a whistleblower over the Russia hoax.
As reported in the New York Post:
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard released a whistleblower’s account Wednesday detailing the pressure an Obama-era intelligence official applied on a subordinate to get them to sign off on an assessment that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election to help Donald Trump.
I was pressured to alter my views,” the senior intelligence analyst-turned-whistleblower claimed in documents Gabbard used as evidence in her bombshell report earlier this month, detailing the “treasonous conspiracy” Obama officials engaged in “to subvert President Trump’s 2016 victory.
This revelation alleges serious misconduct during the creation of the 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) regarding Russian interference in the 2016 election.
According to the report, the whistleblower – whose identity remains protected due to redactions – claims to have served as a deputy national intelligence officer under former DNI James Clapper. Their role included work on the initial ICAs throughout the 2016 election cycle, which concluded that while Russia aimed to disrupt the election, it did not show a clear preference for either candidate.
But after Donald Trump’s surprise victory, that narrative changed drastically. That’s when the whistleblower said the shift occurred – from general concerns about Russian interference to a specific conclusion that Russia had helped Trump win the election. The whistleblower could not support that assessment based on the intelligence they had. But their concerns were met with threats, pressure, and possible retaliation that would ruin their career. This whistleblower was tasked with reviewing the new ICA, but when they asked to see the underlying evidence to support the claims, they were told the information was classified.
According to the whistleblower’s testimony, they pushed back, saying they couldn’t sign off without seeing the proof. That’s when their superior told the whistleblower they simply had to trust the higher-ups and then began pressuring the whistleblower to abandon professional standards.
If the whistleblower didn’t go along with the directives, then he would likely not be promoted. The goal, according to the whistleblower, was to get all agencies on board – including the CIA and DIA – to support whatever implicated Trump.
As they reportedly stated:
I remember this conversation very clearly, . . . as it was a difficult situation and I listened, and chose my responses, with care.
I was aware that I was defying the [National Intelligence Office’s] direction to me (to misrepresent my views to DIA) based on a conscious decision to adhere to [Intelligence Community] standards, tradecraft, and ethics.
One particularly shocking moment came when the whistleblower discovered that the discredited Steele Dossier had been inserted into the ICA – allegedly by then-FBI Director James Comey – at the last minute. That document played a pivotal role in shaping the public narrative of Trump-Russia collusion.
Thankfully, Gabbard’s decision to bring the account to light now is shining a white- hot spotlight on bad actors inside the intelligence community who may have intentionally stifled would-be dissenters in service of their own political agenda.
What strikes me is that this whistleblower didn’t even say, “I disagree.” He simply said he didn’t have the evidence to make that call. They didn’t have a smoking gun. They didn’t even have shells. Which also only gives more credibility to the claims that they weren’t just trying to keep Trump out – they were trying to ensure he couldn’t govern.
The story also underscores how whistleblowers have historically been treated depending on the political context. We know exactly how the previous Administration treated them, as many have become our clients in their fight to reclaim their positions and pensions to essentially get their lives back.
While it’s still unclear what consequences – if any – will come from these revelations, I’m just happy that we’re having some transparency at this point, even if it took years.
