President Donald Trump ratcheted up his threats against former President Barack Obama this week, telling reporters Obama was “guilty” of “treason” and that “right or wrong, it’s time to go after people.”
Trump officials are seemingly laying the groundwork to do just that: Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said Wednesday that she’d referred documents about Obama to the FBI for investigation, and the Justice Department said it created a task force to probe Obama and his administration officials, pledging to “leave no stone unturned to deliver justice.”
Senators from both parties are brushing it all off.
