Democrats thought they could bury the truth about Russiagate forever.
They figured nobody would ever be held accountable for their scheme.
But JD Vance made one prediction that was bad news for Hillary Clinton.
The walls are closing in on Obama’s intelligence apparatus
Vice President JD Vance dropped a political bombshell during an interview on Fox News that sent shockwaves through Washington, D.C.
Without mincing words, Vance told host Maria Bartiromo that "a lot of people" are about to face criminal indictments over the Obama administration’s Russiagate conspiracy.¹
The Vice President wasn’t just making idle threats – he was laying out a methodical case for why these prosecutions are not only justified but inevitable.
"I absolutely want to see indictments," Vance declared during the pre-taped interview.¹ "Of course, you’ve got to have the law follow the facts here."
But Vance made it clear this isn’t about political revenge – it’s about equal justice under the law.
"You don’t just indict people to indict people. You indict people because they broke the law," he explained.¹ "If you look at what Tulsi and Kash Patel have revealed in the last couple of weeks, I don’t know how anybody can look at that and say there wasn’t an aggressive violation of the law."
The evidence Vance referenced comes from a treasure trove of declassified documents that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has been systematically releasing over the past month.
These revelations have exposed the depths of deception that Obama’s intelligence community engaged in to prop up Hillary Clinton’s Russian collusion narrative.
Tulsi Gabbard’s document dumps are exposing the conspiracy
The declassified materials that Gabbard has made public paint a damning picture of how Obama’s intelligence apparatus operated during the 2016 election.
Among the most explosive revelations was a 2020 House Intelligence Committee report crafted by Republicans that found insufficient evidence Russia favored President Trump in 2016.¹
Even more shocking, Gabbard revealed material showing that top intelligence bosses knew Russia did not hack voting systems in any way that would have allowed them to change the election outcome.¹
This directly contradicts years of Democrat fear-mongering about Russian interference that dominated news cycles and consumed the first years of Trump’s presidency.
Vance explained exactly how the conspiracy worked during his Fox News interview.
"What they basically did is they defrauded the American people in order to take Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign talking points and turn them into intelligence," the Vice President said.¹
The scheme was even more sophisticated than that, according to Vance’s analysis.
"They would take something that supported a Hillary Clinton campaign talking point, and they would overemphasize it and exaggerate it," he continued.¹ "They took anything that actually contradicted that narrative, and they buried it deep."
In other words, Obama’s intelligence community wasn’t conducting honest analysis – they were running a political operation designed to damage Trump and help Clinton.
The Justice Department is already moving to hold people accountable
The Trump administration isn’t just talking about accountability – they’re taking concrete action.
Following Gabbard’s revelations, the Justice Department formed a "strike force" to assess whether criminal violations occurred in the newly uncovered activities.¹
Last week, Attorney General Pam Bondi took the next logical step by moving to open a grand jury to probe Obama administration officials.¹
Grand juries are the mechanism prosecutors use to determine whether to hand down criminal indictments, which means this investigation is entering a serious phase.
Vance’s public statements suggest the administration has confidence in the strength of their case.
"I absolutely think they broke the law. And you’re going to see a lot of people get indicted for that," he stated during the interview.¹
The Vice President was careful not to name specific targets, but his confidence level indicates the evidence is substantial.
Obama’s allies are scrambling to defend the indefensible
The panic in Democrat circles is already becoming visible as Obama’s former intelligence officials rush to defend their actions.
Former CIA Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper have hit back at Gabbard’s revelations by pointing to a 2020 bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee report.¹
Their defense essentially amounts to claiming that analysts weren’t under "politically motivated pressure to reach specific conclusions."¹
But that defense rings hollow when the documents show a clear pattern of emphasizing information that helped Clinton while burying information that hurt her narrative.
Brennan and Clapper also wrote an op-ed insisting that their 2017 Intelligence Community report never described "collusion" between Trump and Russia.¹
They’re trying to have it both ways – claiming they never alleged collusion while standing by their assessment that the Kremlin preferred Trump in 2016.¹
Even Barack Obama himself felt compelled to issue a rare public statement through his spokesperson Patrick Rodenbush.
"The bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction," Rodenbush claimed.¹ "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."
But Obama’s defensive posture suggests he knows how damaging these revelations really are.
This is about more than just politics – it’s about the rule of law
Vance made a crucial point during his interview that this investigation represents something bigger than partisan score-settling.
"They actually laundered Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign talking points through the American intelligence services," he explained.¹
That’s not just unethical – it potentially violates multiple federal laws regarding election interference, abuse of power, and conspiracy to defraud the United States.
The Vice President also noted how this conspiracy "bogged President Trump down during his first term" with years of investigations and impeachment proceedings.¹
The American people deserve to know the truth about how their intelligence agencies were weaponized for political purposes.
More importantly, those responsible need to face consequences or it will happen again.
The fact that Vance is speaking so confidently about upcoming indictments suggests the Trump administration has the goods on Obama’s intelligence conspiracy.
Democrats who participated in this scheme should be very worried right now.
Justice delayed is not justice denied – and it’s finally coming.
