President Donald Trump shared and reposted a series of messages via Truth Social after midnight on Friday (April 24), accusing former President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Hilary Clinton of treason, while appearing to once again suggest Obama should be arrested.
Trump’s post-midnight message alleging that Obama and Clinton committed treason featured a video of Fox News hosts reporting on “declassified documents” that allegedly “prove” they worked together to create a smear campaign connecting Trump to Russian election interference in 2016.
“Declassified documents reveal former CIA Director John Brennan briefed then-President Obama on Hilary Clinton’s purported plan to smear then-candidate Donald Trump in 2016,” Fox News’s Bret Baier said in the video.
The video appears to suggest both Clinton and Obama should be arrested. In a separate post, Trump shared an image that appeared to double down on that message, featuring a comment from an X user calling for someone to be prosecuted for treason. It's “time we prosecuted someone for treason and send a message," the post read.
Trump then posted a meme of a man wearing a MAGA hat and holding a sign that reads “Stop Telling Us Who Broke The Law & Start Telling Us Who Was Arrested.”
Trump previously called for Obama's arrest in July 2025 after sharing an AI-generated video of Trump laughing and smiling in the Oval Office while Obama was arrested. The video began with a montage of several Democratic leaders, including Obama, each saying, “No one is above the law.” On Friday, in a post shared at 1:13 a.m., Trump once again suggested that the result of the 2020 election “be permanently wiped from the books and be of no further force or effect!”
He also called for Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) to resign in response to a post by the National Border Control Council claiming they “will not stay silent” after Schumer criticized the actions of ICE, as well as the recent indictment accusing the Southern Poverty Law Center of funding extremist groups through paid informants.
“The Southern Poverty Law Center, one of the greatest political scams in American History, has been charged with FRAUD,” Trump wrote.
