Mark Warner’s Russiagate Reckoning: Caught Red-Handed in Gabbard’s Deep State Takedown

Leave a CommentMark Warner’s Russiagate Reckoning: Caught Red-Handed in Gabbard’s Deep State TakedownCommentary

The swamp is getting drained, and Virginia Senator Mark Warner is stuck in the muck.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s bombshell declassifications on July 18 and July 23, 2025, have ripped the lid off the Russia-Trump collusion hoax, exposing Warner as a key player in a deep state plot to sabotage Donald Trump’s 2016 victory. From an America First perspective, this is a gut-punch to the elites who thought they could override 63 million American voters. Warner’s secret texts with a Russian oligarch’s lawyer, his role in hyping the debunked Steele dossier, and his desperate attacks on Gabbard scream guilt. With fresh evidence piling up, including a July 27, 2025, whistleblower bombshell, Warner’s looking like a swamp rat caught in the spotlight. Let’s tear into the facts, his flimsy excuses, and why this matters for every red-blooded American.

Gabbard’s Truth Grenade: Russiagate Unraveled

On July 18, 2025, Gabbard dropped 114 pages of declassified documents, followed by a 44-page House Intelligence Committee report on July 23, 2025, that expose the Russia-Trump hoax as a deep state fabrication. The documents, detailed in a July 23 White House briefing, prove Obama’s national security team—James Clapper, John Brennan, James Comey, Susan Rice, John Kerry, and Loretta Lynch—knew by December 7, 2016, that Russia didn’t hack the 2016 election. A December 8, 2016, Presidential Daily Brief from the CIA, FBI, and NSA confirmed Russia’s actions “did not impact recent US election results.” Yet, after a December 9, 2016, meeting, leaks to The Washington Post falsely claimed Russia used “cyber means” to elect Trump. By January 6, 2017, a tainted Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) leaned on the Clinton-funded Steele dossier—35 pages of Kremlin gossip—to push the lie that Putin backed Trump, despite a September 12, 2016, ICA draft stating Russia lacked the capability or intent to hack votes.
Gabbard’s July 23 report, led by then-staffer Kash Patel (now FBI Director), calls this a “treasonous conspiracy” to “subvert the will of the American people.” She’s referred Obama, Clapper, Brennan, Comey, and others to the DOJ for criminal prosecution, with Trump dubbing it “THE CRIME OF THE CENTURY” on Truth Social July 19, 2025. A 2019 ODNI whistleblower email, cited in the report, reveals the Steele dossier was a “factor” in the ICA, despite CIA warnings it was unverified “internet rumor.” This is the deep state spitting on your vote, and Warner’s neck-deep in the slime.

Warner’s Dirty Deeds: Texts and Dossier Deals

Mark Warner, vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, has been Russiagate’s loudest cheerleader, but Gabbard’s documents pin him as a co-conspirator. A July 20, 2025, Federalist report resurfaced 2017 texts between Warner and Adam Waldman, lawyer for sanctioned Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska. Warner pushed for secret meetings with Christopher Steele, the dossier’s author, texting Waldman to keep it “no paper trail.” These texts, first leaked in 2018 but amplified in July 2025 X posts, show Warner offering Steele access to the committee to peddle his Clinton-funded dirt. Waldman, who worked for Deripaska (sanctioned in 2018 for election meddling), was a shady go-between, and Warner’s backchannel reeks of collusion to amplify a hoax.

Warner’s committee, which ran a 2017-2020 Russia probe, produced a 1,300-page August 2020 report claiming Russia’s social media campaign helped Trump. But Gabbard’s July 18 documents and a June 2025 CIA tradecraft review shred this, finding no evidence Putin favored Trump. A July 27, 2025, whistleblower, a former CIA officer named Susan Miller, told CNN the dossier’s inclusion in the ICA shocked analysts, contradicting Warner’s claim of a “bipartisan” probe. Miller, part of the 2019 Mueller report team, said the ICA’s Putin-Trump claim wasn’t based on “sound” intelligence, and she’d have resigned if pressured to fake it. Warner ignored a 2019 ODNI whistleblower who flagged Brennan’s dossier manipulation, per July 27, 2025, X posts. Warner wasn’t investigating—he was running cover for a deep state hit job.

Warner’s Panic Attack: Deflect and Deny

When Gabbard’s July 18 report hit, Warner lost it at the Aspen Security Forum, calling her “not competent” and accusing her of politicizing intelligence, per a July 18, 2025, Hill report. On July 19, 2025, he claimed her declassifications threaten Five Eyes intel-sharing, though his office backtracked, admitting he meant future risks, per a July 18, 2025, Politico report. By July 24, 2025, Warner was screeching that Gabbard’s 44-page report endangers “sensitive sources and methods,” per CBS News, despite Trump’s legal declassification authority. In a July 21, 2025, X video, he leaned on his 2020 Senate report, co-signed by then-Senator Marco Rubio, to claim Russia’s interference was real, dodging Gabbard’s evidence of dossier-driven lies.

Warner’s deflections are pathetic. A July 23, 2025, FactCheck.org report calls him out for misrepresenting Gabbard’s findings, which don’t deny Russia’s social media meddling but expose the false vote-hacking narrative he hyped. His claim that “no one accused Russia of altering votes” is a bald-faced lie—the 2017 ICA and Post leaks he championed implied exactly that, sparking the $32 million Mueller probe. X posts from July 19-27, 2025, label Warner a “central figure” in the hoax, citing his Waldman texts and whistleblower suppression. Warner’s flailing proves he’s scared—Gabbard’s got him dead to rights.

The Swamp’s Playbook: Warner’s Deep State Dance

Warner didn’t act alone. He synced with Democrats like Jim Himes, who called Gabbard’s claims “baseless” on July 20, 2025, Face the Nation, and Obama, whose July 22, 2025, statement dismissed her as an Epstein distraction. But the evidence is ironclad: a December 2016 Clapper assistant email, cited in Gabbard’s report, shows Obama ordered the ICA to push a false narrative. Warner’s committee, with 200 witnesses and a million documents, buried this, endorsing the ICA despite FBI dissent, per a July 24, 2025, CBS News report. The 2019 DOJ IG report and 2023 Durham report slammed the dossier’s use, yet Warner kept pushing it, per a July 22, 2025, Washington Post analysis. His March 25, 2025, NPR rant about Gabbard’s Signal chat (a non-classified Yemen strike discussion) shows he’ll sling any mud to dodge accountability.
Warner’s 2017 Waldman texts, seeking Steele’s testimony, tie him to Clinton’s smear machine. A July 28, 2025, X post claims he “fed” the dossier to the FBI, though this lacks primary confirmation. His dismissal of Miller’s July 27, 2025, testimony, which exposed ICA flaws, cements his role as a deep state gatekeeper. Warner is a traitor to the 76 million Trump voters in 2024, weaponizing his Senate perch to undermine democracy.

Why It Hits Home: Your Vote Under Siege

This isn’t just about 2016—it’s about 2025 and your right to a government that doesn’t lie. Warner’s Russiagate role fueled two impeachments, a $32 million probe, and global tensions, all to nullify your vote. Gabbard’s July 23, 2025, DOJ referral, backed by Pam Bondi, could lead to indictments, with 53 GOP senators ready to pounce, per a July 21, 2025, Senate Judiciary update. Warner faces re-election in 2026, and Virginians—64% of whom backed Trump in 2024, per exit polls—deserve a senator who doesn’t cozy up to Russian-linked lawyers. His “bipartisan” cred, praised by Rubio in 2020, is a sham when he’s suppressing whistleblowers and pushing hoaxes.
A July 2024 Rasmussen Reports poll shows 62% of Americans distrust federal agencies—Warner’s actions are exhibit A. From an America First view, he’s a swamp poster boy, and Gabbard’s declassifications are a battle cry for accountability. Every farmer, trucker, and small business owner deserves a government that respects their choice, not one that rigs the game.

What’s next for Warner?

Tulsi Gabbard’s July 18 and 23, 2025, releases—114 pages and a 44-page report—expose Mark Warner as a Russiagate ringleader, pushing the Steele dossier via 2017 texts with a Russian oligarch’s lawyer and burying a 2019 whistleblower. His July 18-24, 2025, attacks on Gabbard’s competence dodge her damning evidence: Obama’s team faked a Russia-Trump link to subvert 63 million voters. A July 27, 2025, CIA whistleblower confirms the ICA’s flaws, nailing Warner’s cover-up. Without a doubt, this is a betrayal of democracy. Warner’s time is up—Virginia and America need leaders who fight for the people, not the deep state.
