During an appearance on Sunday Morning Futures with Fox News host Maria Bartiromo, Tulsi Gabbard revealed that more information would be made public as early as "next week.""We will be releasing more detailed information about how exactly this took place, and the extent to which this information was sought to be hidden from the American people, hidden from officials who would be in a position to do something about it," Gabbard said.
Ahead of the interview, she reportedly accused Barack Obama's administration of being part of a "treasonous conspiracy" tied to Russia's alleged involvement in the 2016 U.S. election.

Tulsi Gabbard emphasized that her mission is to hold individuals accountable — and potentially seek prosecution."Accountability is essential for the future of our country, for the American people to have any sense of trust in the integrity of our democratic republic," she said.
In 2019, Special Counsel Robert Mueller and a Senate report determined that Russia did interfere in the election in an effort to help President Donald Trump win the presidency.
"Accountability, action, prosecution, indictments for those who are responsible for trying to steal our democracy is essential for us to make sure that this never happens to our country again."

Tulsi Gabbard's claims have already sparked backlash from political opponents, who are calling her allegations "utter nonsense."Connecticut Congressman Jim James voiced skepticism, writing on X, "Odd that then CIA Director Pompeo didn't say any of this. Or that none of the six DNIs in Trump's first term said any of it."
Adding, "Once again, Tulsi Gabbard is trashing her own people in an attempt to regain Trump's favor or to distract from the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Probably both."
