Colorado Democrat Rep. Jason Crow appeared on FOX News over the weekend, attacking Tulsi Gabbard for what he called “dangerous” accusations against former President Barack Obama regarding his involvement in the Russiagate hoax. Crow dismissed Gabbard’s revelations as “conspiracy theories,” claiming she was acting as a “weapon of mass distraction” to curry favor with President Donald Trump. But where was this outrage when Democrats spent years pushing the debunked Trump-Russia collusion narrative? Where was Crow’s concern when the left smeared Trump as a Russian asset, a Nazi, or a threat to democracy? The hypocrisy is staggering.
Liberal Double Standards on Full Display
Crow’s remarks perfectly encapsulate the left’s playbook: “We can do this to you, but you can’t do it to us—even if it’s true.” For years, Democrats and their media allies relentlessly pushed the baseless Russiagate conspiracy, which was later exposed as a politically motivated hoax. The Mueller investigation found no evidence of collusion, and documents since declassified have revealed that the entire narrative was orchestrated by Hillary Clinton’s campaign and high-ranking Obama officials. Yet, when Gabbard—a former Democrat herself—exposes Obama’s direct role in this scheme, suddenly it’s “dangerous.”
Democrats’ Lies Nearly Got Trump Killed—Twice
The left’s reckless rhetoric didn’t just smear Trump—it put his life in danger. Twice, deranged individuals attempted to assassinate President Trump, fueled by the non-stop demonization from Democrats and their media allies. Was that not “dangerous”? When Maxine Waters called for harassment of Trump officials, when Hillary Clinton labeled Trump an “illegitimate president,” or when Adam Schiff lied to the American public about “evidence” of collusion—did Jason Crow ever call that out as dangerous? Of course not.
The Media’s Complicity in the Left’s Smear Campaign
The liberal media has been complicit in this charade, amplifying every false accusation against Trump while burying the truth about Democrat corruption. Now that the tables have turned, and Obama’s involvement in Russiagate is being exposed, they suddenly clutch their pearls and cry “conspiracy theory.” But the facts don’t lie: Obama’s intelligence officials spied on the Trump campaign, fabricated the Steele dossier, and weaponized the FBI to undermine a sitting president. If that’s not an abuse of power, what is?

Standing with President Trump Against the Deep State
President Trump has been vindicated time and again, yet the left refuses to acknowledge their lies. Instead, they attack truth-tellers like Tulsi Gabbard, who had the courage to break ranks and expose the corruption at the highest levels of the Democratic Party. The American people see through this hypocrisy. They know that Trump was right all along—the real conspiracy was against him, and the same forces that tried to destroy his presidency are now desperate to silence anyone who exposes them.
