The FBI raided the Washington, D.C.-area home of former National Security Advisor John Bolton early Friday morning as part of a national security investigation. This high-profile operation has garnered significant media attention, with FBI Director Kash Patel asserting, “NO ONE is above the law.”
The raid took place around 6 a.m. and involved multiple agents executing a search warrant. Details surrounding the nature of the investigation remain sparse, but sources indicate it pertains to classified information and potential breaches of national security protocols during Bolton"s tenure in the Trump administration.
Bolton, who served as National Security Advisor from April 2018 to September 2019, has been a controversial figure in U.S. politics, known for his hawkish foreign policy stance. His recent public appearances and comments have sparked speculation about his involvement in ongoing political issues, including the recent developments surrounding former President Donald Trump, who is expected to deliver a major announcement today.
As the investigation unfolds, it remains unclear what implications this raid may have for Bolton or for broader national security discussions. The FBI has not released specific details about the evidence they are seeking, but the operation underscores the agency’s commitment to enforcing the law uniformly, regardless of an individual’s political status.
