Trump, earlier this week, claimed that Obama was the ‘ringleader’ of Russiagate
In a fiery and unapologetic statement that’s already sending shockwaves through Washington, President Donald Trump declared that former President Barack Obama “owes me big” following the Supreme Court’s landmark ruling on presidential immunity. At a recent press event, Trump cited the Court’s decision as shielding not just himself, but also Obama—whom he accused of orchestrating a “criminal conspiracy” against his 2016 campaign. Backed by newly declassified findings from Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, Trump doubled down on claims of a coordinated effort by the Obama administration to undermine his presidency—allegations the former president’s camp flatly denies.
1. Trump’s “Obama Owes Me Big” Remark
At a July 25, 2025 press conference, President Trump celebrated the Supreme Court’s Trump v. United States decision (issued July 1, 2024), granting immunity for official presidential actions. He said it “probably helps [Obama] a lot” and that Obama “owes me big.” Trump accused Obama of leading a “Russiagate” conspiracy and committing criminal acts—even alleging treason—but noted that Obama is shielded from prosecution due to the ruling
2. Tulsi Gabbard & DNI’s Role
Trump’s Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, has declassified documents suggesting the Obama administration knowingly pushed misleading intelligence in 2016, which Trump calls a “treasonous conspiracy.” She directed these materials to the DOJ, supporting Trump’s call to investigate Obama and his inner circle
3. Obama’s Response & Wider Context
Obama’s office dismissed the allegations as “outrageous” and a diversion, reiterating bipartisan findings that Russia interfered in 2016 but did not alter the election outcome.
Legal experts and commentators on Fox News and in The Daily Beast have criticized the narrative as a distraction from ongoing matters such as the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, noting that the immunity ruling also protects Trump’s own official actions—creating tension in conservative media commentary.
Resulting Effects:
-
Obama Shielded by a Ruling Meant to Target Trump
The Supreme Court’s immunity ruling—intended by critics to limit Trump—ironically protects Barack Obama from potential prosecution for alleged abuse of power during the 2016 election. -
Tulsi Gabbard’s Declassified Intel Shakes Washington
As Director of National Intelligence, Gabbard released documents pointing to misconduct by Obama-era officials, including intelligence manipulation and coordination with media to fuel the false Russia narrative. -
Renewed Conservative Push for Accountability
Republicans and Trump allies are calling for investigations into Obama, Brennan, Clapper, and others for their alleged roles in weaponizing the intelligence community. -
Vindication for Trump and His Base
Many conservatives feel validated after years of claiming the Russia hoax was a politically motivated smear campaign. The ruling is seen as proof that the left overplayed its hand. -
DOJ Under Pressure to Act
With classified material now in DOJ hands, Trump and his supporters are urging the appointment of a special counsel to investigate Obama-era wrongdoings—claims long dismissed by the media and Democrats. -
Mainstream Media Damage Control
Legacy media outlets are downplaying the implications, focusing instead on Trump’s rhetoric. But conservative outlets highlight the shift: power structures are being exposed. -
Shift in Political Momentum
Trump’s framing of Obama as both a beneficiary and a perpetrator turns the narrative on its head—and may energize the base heading into the 2026 midterms.
Bottom Line:
The Supreme Court’s immunity ruling has flipped the script. What the left once hailed as a tool to restrain Trump is now shielding their own political icons—most notably Barack Obama. As declassified intel from Tulsi Gabbard begins to pull back the curtain on 2016 election interference from within the U.S. government itself, it’s becoming harder for corporate media and Democrat operatives to hide behind the old narratives.
Trump’s message is clear: the deep state doesn’t just exist—it operated at the highest levels. And thanks to the very legal precedent his enemies hoped would destroy him, he now has the legal and political high ground to expose it. If justice is to mean anything, equal application of the law must follow—no matter how high up it reaches.
This isn’t just about immunity. It’s about accountability. And for many Americans, that long-overdue reckoning may finally be within reach.
