Jay Sekulow: Obama administration’s anti-Trump actions revealed in newly disclosed documents
Sekulow on push for intelligence sharing rule changes at end of Obama era
President Trump's attorney Jay Sekulow reveals new information about Obama administration effort to undermine incoming Trump administration.
Stunning new information just released by the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) shows that the Obama administration stepped up efforts – just days before President Trump took office – to undermine Trump and his administration.
The ACLJ, where I serve as chief counsel, has obtained records that show the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, under Director James Clapper, eagerly pushed to get new procedures as part of an anti-Trump effort. The procedures increased access to raw signals intelligence before the conclusion of the Obama administration, just days before President Trump was inaugurated.
By greatly expanding access to classified information by unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats, the Obama administration paved the way for a shadow government to leak classified information – endangering our national security and severely jeopardizing the integrity and reputation of our critical national security apparatus – in an attempt to undermine President Trump.
No president-elect or president should be targeted in this manner – and those responsible must be held accountable.
As I told Sean Hannity on his Fox News Channel program, the documents were obtained as a result of one of our Freedom of Information Act lawsuits – this one against the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and the National Security Agency.
The documents confirmed what we suspected: the Office of the Director of National Intelligence rushed to get the new “procedures signed by the Attorney General before the conclusion of this administration,” referring to the Obama administration.
We have been working to unearth the facts of this Obama administration anti-Trump effort through our Freedom of Information Act lawsuits for more than two years.

In the last two weeks of the Obama administration Obama and Clapper changed the Intelligence network laws from sharing Intelligence with only three major Government agencies to seventeen (17 ) agencies. They made a major push to get these new rules signed before Trump was inaugurated. This was done so that the so-called- Russian Dossier could be spread all over all of our Federal Government agencies.
This is what set up and enabled the phony Russia - Collusion investigations.
