Debunking the Rumor: No Evidence Supports Claims
Sensational Claims vs. Reality
OmegaNewsBD claims the DOJ is about to indict former President Obama for “treason, espionage, and seditious conspiracy.” It cites unnamed “insiders” but provides no evidence, official statements, or credible media confirmation.
Similar false stories have circulated before—Reuters previously found a 2020 arrest rumor “entirely fabricated.”
What the DOJ Is Doing
In July 2025, DNI Tulsi Gabbard declassified documents alleging Obama-era officials mishandled Russia-related intelligence. The DOJ formed a “strike force” and convened a grand jury to review the claims. However, there is no sign of an active case against Obama himself.
Political Context
VP J.D. Vance noted “a lot of people” could face charges over Russiagate, but did not name Obama. Some see the allegations as a distraction from controversies surrounding Trump. Stephen Colbert called AI arrest videos “insane.”
Verdict
No credible evidence supports Obama’s imminent arrest; the claims remain unverified and politically charged.
