Maybe it’s just us but it sounds like the Obama administration has some serious splainin’ to do. Especially with all of these fancy, newly released documents. Mollie Hemingway did a kick-a*s job of exposing Obama (sorry for the visual) and his team for criminally leaking to the media to accomplish his goals aka take down Trump.

Thanks to newly declassified and released government documents, I lay out a brief explanatory timeline of how officials criminally leaked to compliant media to accomplish key Obama goals. Please read. https://t.co/Gh2zBnsABK

From The Federalist:

A clearer picture is emerging of the drastic steps that were taken to accomplish Obama’s goal in the following weeks and months. Shortly thereafter, high-level operatives began intensely leaking selective information supporting a supposed Russia-Trump conspiracy theory, the incoming National Security Advisor was ambushed, and the incoming Attorney General was forced to recuse himself from oversight of investigations of President Trump. At each major point in the operation, explosive media leaks were a key strategy in the operation to take down Trump.

Not only was information on Russia not fully shared with the incoming Trump team, as Obama directs, the leaks and ambushes made the transition chaotic, scared quality individuals away from working in the administration, made effective governance almost impossible, and materially damaged national security. When Comey was finally fired on May 9, in part for his duplicitousness regarding his handling of the Russia collusion theory, he orchestrated the launch of a Special Counsel probe that continued his efforts for another two years. That probe ended with Mueller finding no evidence of any American colluding with Russia to steal the 2016 election, much less Trump or anyone connected to him.
