Donald Trump says 'Russia hoax' is now 'totally undisputed' as he attacks Obama administration

Donald Trump took to Truth Social on Friday and wrote, "The Russia, Russia, Russia HOAX is now TOTALLY UNDISPUTED! THE FACTS ARE ALL THERE, IN BLACK AND WHITE."

"It is the biggest scandal in American History. The perpetrators of this CRIME must pay a big price. This can never be allowed to happen in our Country again!" he added.

Moreover, he shared a video from The Daily Signal that features historian Victor Davis Hanson, who accused Obama-era intelligence leaders of conspiring to "destroy" Trump after his win over Hillary Clinton back in 2016.

The POTUS captioned the post, "They must pay for the crime of the Century."

Trump's attacks stem from claims made in July by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.

She cited newly declassified documents to allege a "treasonous conspiracy" by Obama and senior national security officials to fabricate Russian election interference to undermine the legitimacy of the results.
