The office of U.S. Democratic former President Barack Obama said on Tuesday that a document issued last week by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence does not undercut the conclusion that Russia tried to influence the 2016 U.

The U.S. intelligence community in 2017 said Russia had interfered in the 2016 U.S. election and sought to hurt Clinton while trying to help Trump.

Former President Barack Obama denied President Donald Trump's “bizarre allegations" that he was the Russiagate “ringleader," in a rare public statement Tuesday evening.

House Speaker Mike Johnson indicated he would have no hesitation about dragging former President Barack Obama before a congressional committee to testify on the 2016 Russia investigation.

House Speaker Mike Johnson said: "There's a lot of allegations on the table—our job is go and follow each of those trails and to find out the truth."

Tulsi Gabbard claimed on "Hannity" on Friday that Barack Obama and his national security team manufactured the Russia hoax to "subvert the American people's will" in the 2016 election.

In July 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump posted an artificial intelligence-generated video of former President Barack Obama being arrested in the Oval Office.
