Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard released聽聽on Friday detailing the intelligence community鈥檚 assessments on Russian election interference in 2016. She alleged a 鈥渢reasonous conspiracy鈥 against Donald Trump, accusing the Obama administration of manufacturing and politicizing intelligence following a Dec. 9, 2016, meeting between the president and top intelligence officials. Critics say she conflated Russian cyber manipulation of votes, which the intelligence community indeed assessed as unlikely, with emerging evidence of Moscow鈥檚 influence operations, later documented in the Mueller report. 鈥 Staff
