Gabbard said in a statement that the former officer was engaged in a “traitorous conspiracy” and said that his office was giving evidence to the Department of Justice for possible criminal referrals.
Gabbard said, “The information we are releasing today clearly shows that there was a traitorous conspiracy made by the officials at the highest level of our government in 2016.” “Their goal was to reduce the wishes of the American people and essentially to try to fulfill the President by fulfilling the mandate given by the American people to fulfill the President.
