Patel's FBI raids John Bolton's home in high-profile national security probe |
2025-08-22 |
[NY Post] Uh oh! FBI agents raided former Trump National Security Advisor John Bolton’s DC-area home Friday morning in a high-profile national security probe, The Post can exclusively reveal. Federal agents busted into Bolton’s house in Bethesda, Md., at 7 a.m. in an investigation ordered by FBI Director Kash Patel, a Trump administration official told The Post. "NO ONE is above the law... @FBI agents on mission," he said in a cryptic post to X shortly after the raid began. The probe — which is said to involve classified documents — was first launched years ago, but the Biden administration shut it down "for political reasons," according to a senior US official. Bolton has previously been accused of including classified information in his 2020 book, "The Room Where it Happened." President Trump fought to quash its publication over its inclusion of national secrets — saying Bolton broke an NDA signed as a condition of his employment — but was ultimately unsuccessful. His first-term Justice Department opened an inquiry into the book in September 2020. Related: John Bolton 07/28/2025 Now John Bolton's Name Comes Up in the Russia Collusion Hoax‐Did He Bury Evidence?

#6 Raid a guy that everyone hates first. If the leftists defend him, it’s like defending DC carjackers. If they don’t defend him, they raid a Dem. If the leftists protest, they ask why it was OK to raid Bolton but not the Dem. Regardless, we will find out if Bolton is working for somebody and if he keeps more classified stuff in his house than Biden did. |

#1 Let's hope that Bolton is the low hanging fruit and that DOJ will get him to testify against people further up the ladder. |
