Bolton contacted whistleblower prior to filing complaint, suggesting an attempted coup
The Buffalo Chronicle ^ | September 26, 2019 | Staff

In the hours after National Security Advisor John Bolton was fired by President Donald Trump on September 10th, he immediately began calling longtime political operatives in Washington, DC, sources tell The Chronicle. Many of those calls were made to Democrats and many of them in the national security establishment.

...

“It’s go time,” he began those conversations, multiple sources tell The Chronicle, as if to suggest that Bolton’s patience with the President had worn thin, and even implying later in more than one conversation that a faction of neo-conservatives at the Central Intelligence Agency was ready to remove the President from office.

...

While on the phone with one former government official who currently works on K Street, Bolton admitted that he was furious with the President, whom he lambasted with obscenities for more than five minutes. The President would learn his lesson, he told the lobbyist, who chalked it up to a disgruntled employee venting over his unexpected termination.

But now, he fears that Bolton is organizing a coup d’etat to oust President Trump from office. He cites Bolton’s contacts with journalists at major media outlets — particularly The Washington Post under the ownership of Jeff Bezos — to whom Bolton is widely thought to have leaked information from inside of the Trump administration through the duration of his tenure.

So I suppose you’d feel better if the LA Times, NY Times, Wash Compost would have printed it?

I'm not saying that Bolton ISN'T the leaker. I am just exercising cautious skepticism. If Bolton started calling journalists and demonicRATS (but I repeat myself) right after President Trump fired him, why did they hold on to that information until now?

If they are suggesting Bolton gave the "go" signal for the coup, then they are implicating themselves if part of the coup strategy was to hold on to that particular piece of information until after the Schiff Show started.

No.
I remember explaining why attempted nation building in the middle east can never produce advantageous results for the west, which I have been explaining since the fall of Lebanon to the islamists in the seventies.

Thus, I have never approved of Bolton since he came on the scene.

The biggest money laundering scheme in history and the POTUS just scratched the surface of it. All involved (commie or otherwise) need to be charged with money laundering, racketeering, fraud, etc. etc. They need to be put away for a verrrrrry long time.

Sorry, I have little if any confidence in this article. All anonymous bs.

Point well taken. If Bolton immediately started calling journalists and demonicRATS after he was fired, why didn’t one of those news outlets report it? Why would somebody go to some obscure newspaper unless it is to protect someone at the major Fake News outlets.

Bolton had strong views and disagreed how to proceed, he is not the traitor you believe.
This from the resident FOX news apologist.

Traitors know how to infiltrate and "proceed" and manipulate undetected.

They aren't as stupid as you are. Or are you?

Trump is the President

Bolton is actually nothing. He has strong views and opinions but was dismissed by the President. Having been dismissed there is question that he has and will never again have a position of importance.

Bolton knows that. He overplayed his hand and lost

He is not however stupid and will not be a turncoat

He’s a combo of Jack D. Ripper and Buck Turgidson - always wanting us to get our hair mussed.

Somehow I missed this when it was published in September. Thanks for posting it! Bolton has shown his true treasonous colors.

I'm not necessarily a Bolton supporter. I'm just suspicious of the Fake News Media.

I find it suspicious that only Bolton is named in this story. The journalists remain nameless. The Thronicles sources remain nameless. The sources' sources remain nameless. The demonicRATS Bolton supposedly called rename nameless.

I don't outright deny that Bolton did say what they said he said. I'd just like to hear his side.

Skepticism is good. To this point everything about the 'whistleblower' (LEAKER) is speculation. I have questions about the entire fake situation. 'Who' is the main question.

It's like the vile 'dossier'. It just floated to the top of the cesspool after months of composing by embedded traitors i.e. McCain, Clinton, Obama... all of whom had a hand in that pos situation.

The article was printed in September, shortly after Bolton was fired.

I’m sure if you got on his ‘Twitter’ feed you could find out. He’s been blasting Trump ever since he was fired.
