John Bolton’s Office Raid Bombshell: Classified Documents Related to WMDs, Strategic Comms Found
Red State ^ | September 24, 2025 | Rusty Weiss

Posted on 09/24/2025 6:29:42 AM PDT by Red Badger

Federal agents executing a search warrant at the downtown office of former National Security Adviser John Bolton in late August seized a cache of documents marked as classified, according to court documents.

The office mission was the second such search conducted by the FBI following an early-morning raid at Bolton's home. The application for the warrant at his office, according to the filing, was to search for "evidence of a crime" and to locate potential "contraband, fruits of crime, or other items illegally possessed."

An inventory of the property taken at Bolton's office indicates several electronic devices, as well as a binder labeled "U.S. Dept of State Diplomatic Security," containing an "introductory security briefing prepared for the 2000-2001 transition team," were seized.

Among the other documents reportedly found, according to the inventory, were travel memos labeled "secret" and those labeled "confidential" pertaining to a U.S. mission to the United Nations and the U.S. government’s strategic communications plan.

The findings also yielded "classified" documents related to weapons of mass destruction.

Politico reports that there is no indication of classified documents being obtained during the raid on Bolton's home, but investigators also retrieved numerous electronic devices there.

"Both search warrant applications indicated FBI agents were seeking evidence related to three felony offenses," they write, "including gathering, transmitting, or losing national defense information in violation of the Espionage Act and retaining classified information without permission."

So he had illegal possession of classified documents and other “secret” memos. When is the indictment for federal prosecution of the Espionage Act?

No one likes Bolton. He’s got no defenders.

More than anything else is this: After all the public fuss over PDJT and docs, plus all the spin over Biden’s docs, how could anybody with Bolton’s reputation and hunger for public attention be so STUPID as to keep docs?

Evil, traitorous, disloyal, yes, but above all, really, really stupid.

He was all for the Mar a Lago raid. As per Bolton, Trump deserved it.

Bolton says handling of records at Mar-a-Lago shows “disdain” for the seriousness of classification - CBS News:
