Wasn't Bolton one of the ones who told us to stop overreacting, there were plenty of adults in the room? We said they wouldn't be there forever and he ignored us.
Where are the adults now, Bolton?
Busy raping children and not releasing the documents about it.
that was until he started contradicting or criticizing trump.
Interesting. The Purges are starting from the inside, this time.
What are the odds one of these former Trump advisors held on to a little bit of insurance for re-retaliation?
God I hope someone thought that far ahead.
Bad stuff comes out about Trump all the time, and it bounces right off. People already know he's awful, and half the country likes it that way.
Very true. Who knows if there even is anything that they wouldn't just reject or wave away.
The raids are part of a “national security investigation in search of classified records,” a person familiar with the matter told NBC.
The probe is eyeing multiple instances of the use of classified documents in leaks to the news media. The investigation began during the Biden administration, but did not go further before President Joe Biden left office in January.
Wouldn’t want former politicians hanging on to confidential files.
this was the summary from the article, I know this is old news now but here's an independent journalist I follow who offers some more context on this raid in case anyone is interested
Some of these comments. Damn. Do y'all not understand that Trump and Bolton have been at each other's throat for quite some time?
This isn't face eating, this is a clear attack on a political enemy. That's the takeaway, and you should be chilled to the bone.
It may be important for people to learn that the Nazi party was originally a socialist coalition party until Hitler and his ilk expelled or murdered the people they didn't agree with. This is identical.
Yeah, man. The leopard’s eating bolton’s face.
You know Bolton wrote The Room Where It Happened in 2020? He absolutely threw Trump under the bus. This would be face eating material if they were still allies of some sort. They fucking hate each other.
Sure, but this guy is a total clown so at least we have that.
Who do they come for first, who will be next. How long before your turn comes
I hate Bolton's politics as much as the next guy, but he's no dipshit. I so hoped he would bring sanity to the first Trump administration, and that's why he got fired.
We have all known this forever. Muricans did nothing when children with cancer were deported, bo you really expect a reaction here?
