    Former President Barack Obama will not face charges for treason, sedition or any other crime in the wake of newly disclosed intel. Whether Obama's actions, if true, meet the elements of a crime is, of course, one thing. But this is not the primary reason Obama has little to worry about.

    Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard claims newly
    uncovered documents show how Obama and intelligence officials worked
    during the 2016 presidential campaign to help elect former Secretary of
    State and Democrat candidate Hillary Clinton. Gabbard contends that
    Obama's director of national intelligence, FBI head and CIA knowingly used false and sketchy evidence and sources to help Clinton distract from the growing controversy over her unsecured basement server, a likely violation
    of the Espionage Act. They did so by concocting a fake attention-drawing scandal: Candidate Donald Trump colluded with Russia to win the election.

    Gabbard contends the intelligence community never believed the
    Russian interference, which is not in dispute, was intended to help elect Trump. After the election, according to Gabbard, Obama and top intel
    officials suddenly and hurriedly issued a new intelligence assessment --
    by overruling career intelligence staffers -- and concocted another false narrative: Russia interfered to orchestrate an illegitimate victory for illegitimate President-elect Trump.

    If true, this is one of the biggest political scandals in American history, if not the biggest. Whether or not it leads to the criminal
    charges against top officials in the Obama administration, this must be thoroughly investigated and exposed. It raises serious questions about the Obama administration, his intelligence officials and how the media could
    have happily parroted the narratives "Russia hacked our election" and
    "Trump colluded with Russia."

    Why does Obama need not fear charges? The race card.

    Consider the protests after the death of George Floyd. Floyd, a
    career violent criminal, was full of drugs, resisted arrest and was
    subdued by a restraint technique taught in the Minneapolis Police Academy.
    (For the truth about the death of Floyd, watch the documentary "The Fall
    of Minneapolis," available for free on YouTube.)

    Yet, much of the country went crazy over this supposed example of anti-black police "systemic racism." The trial was televised. Prosecutor
    Jerry Blackwell, a black man, took pains in his opening statement to say
    that the police, in general, were not on trial and that the Minneapolis
    Police Department, in general, was not on trial. The prosecutor said this individual cop, Derek Chauvin, was on trial for actions taken and not
    taken in connection with the death of Floyd. This prosecutor never even
    implied Chauvin was motivated by Floyd's race, and Chauvin was not charged
    with a hate crime.

    Nevertheless, Floyd's death triggered the largest "racial
    injustice" protests in American history. There were an estimated 10,000 protests in hundreds of cities and towns, with 5% to 7% involving
    violence. Approximately 26 million people protested, 25 people were
    killed, 2,000 police officers were injured, and billions of dollars in
    insured and uninsured property damage occurred.

    This occurred because of an assumption that Floyd's death was
    connected to his race. The police in recent years kill more whites and
    unarmed whites than blacks and unarmed blacks. (Hard-to-watch videotapes
    of Tony Timpa and Kelly Thomas, two white men who died after their
    respective encounters with police, are available on YouTube.)

    This media indifference of whites who die in police encounters
    creates the false impression that unarmed black men are routinely killed
    by cops. A poll in Police magazine found that 50% of those self-described
    as "very liberal" assumed the police in 2019 killed 1,000 unarmed black
    men. The actual number, according to the Washington Post database: 12.

    Given the reaction to the death of Floyd, one can only imagine the outcry if Obama, the first black president -- notwithstanding the evidence
    and the law -- were indicted by the "racist" Trump Justice Department.

    When Trump was twice impeached and prosecutors relentlessly
    charged and prosecuted Trump, Democrats and much of the media chanted, "No
    one is above the law."

    Therefore, if Gabbard's charges are true, and if Obama's actions
    meet the elements of a crime, then justice should be pursued. If not, the
    mob wins. But should Obama be charged, what happened during the summer of
    2020 will look like a picnic.


    --
    November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump. We look
    forward to America being great again.

    We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that
    stupid people won't be offended.

    Every day is an IQ test. Some pass, some, not so much.

    Thank you for cleaning up the disasters of the 2008-2017, 2020-2024 Obama
    / Biden / Harris fiascos, President Trump.

    Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
    The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood
    queer liberal democrat donors.
