DNI Tulsi Gabbard Exposes Conspiracy Used by Congress to Impeach President Trump

Published: 13 April 2026

Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard releases never-before-seen documents exposing a coordinated effort by elements within the Intelligence Community (IC), including a former Inspector General (IG), to manufacture a conspiracy that was used as the basis to impeach President Trump in 2019.

The release includes investigative materials used by then-IC IG Atkinson and cites two transcripts from IC IG Atkinson's closed-door testimony before the House Permanent Select Committee on Investigations, which were withheld from the House Judiciary Committee during the sham impeachment trial and kept locked in a safe until House Intelligence Chairman Rick Crawford led the vote to release these transcripts on Tuesday, March 24, 2026.
